## Contain user from the network
359359

360-
When an identity in your network might be compromised, you must prevent that identity from accessing the network and different endpoints. Defender for Endpoint can contain an identity, blocking it from access, and helping prevent attacks-- specifically, ransomware. When an identity is contained, any supported Microsoft Defender for Endpoint onboarded device will block incoming traffic in specific protocols related to attacks (network logons, RPC, SMB, RDP), terminate ongoing remote sessions and logoff existing RDP connections (terminating the session itself including all its related processes), while enabling legitimate traffic. This action can significantly help to reduce the impact of an attack. When an identity is contained, security operations analysts have extra time to locate, identify and remediate the threat to the compromised identity.

When an identity in your network might be compromised, you must prevent that identity from accessing the network and different endpoints. Defender for Endpoint can contain an identity, blocking it from access, and helping prevent attacks-- specifically, ransomware. When an identity is contained, any supported Microsoft Defender for Endpoint onboarded device will block incoming traffic in specific protocols related to attacks (deny network logons, RPC, SMB, RDP), terminate ongoing remote sessions and logoff existing RDP connections (terminating the session itself including all its related processes), while enabling legitimate traffic. This action can significantly help to reduce the impact of an attack. When an identity is contained, security operations analysts have extra time to locate, identify and remediate the threat to the compromised identity. Once contained by automatic attack disruption, a user is automatically removed from containment in the next five days.
