Microsoft is adding new Intune and Defender features to Microsoft 365 Enterprise licenses

As posted in April, Microsoft plans to add Intune (Suite) and Defender features to Microsoft 365 E5, E3, and Office 365 E3 licenses, initially scheduled for July. I expect they are also available for E7 licenses.

Read:  Microsoft 365 E3 and E5 customers get Intune Suite and Defender capabilities in July 2026
These updates are now rolling out for Microsoft 365 E5, E3, and Office 365 E3
These updates are now rolling out for Microsoft 365 E5, E3, and Office 365 E3

You should now check your licenses and the new service plans to review their activation status, as Microsoft has already added the features to your licenses. You will find new service plans. As usual with new service plans, they are enabled by default.

In some tenants, the service plans are still in pending provision mode; in others, they are already active. I prepared Microsoft Graph samples to check the state in your tenant.

Microsoft 365 E5 (and E7)

Microsoft 365 E5 customers will find these 8 new service plans; the same likely applies to E7 customers (I could not verify it for E7).
