If you're using a non-Microsoft antivirus solution and not Microsoft Defender Antivirus, Microsoft Defender Antivirus is disabled automatically. When you uninstall the non-Microsoft antivirus solution, Microsoft Defender Antivirus is activated automatically to protect your Windows devices from threats.

To view customer tenant devices and threats on the threat management pages, you must enroll all customer tenant devices in Microsoft Intune and protect them by running Microsoft Defender Antivirus.

Lighthouse is available to partners enrolled in the Cloud Solution Provider (CSP) program, including both indirect resellers and direct-bill partners.

For customer data to show up in reports on user management pages, including Risky users, Multifactor authentication, and Self-service password reset, customer tenants must have licenses for Azure Active Directory Premium P1 or later. Azure AD Premium P1 is included with Microsoft 365 Business Premium and Microsoft 365 E3. Azure AD Premium P2 is included with Microsoft 365 E5.

In addition, each customer tenant must meet the following requirements to be actively monitored and managed in Lighthouse:

Customer tenants that don't meet these requirements will have access to only a limited set of experiences in Lighthouse, including GDAP setup and management, user search, user details, tenant tagging, and service health.

Only partners are required to enroll in the CSP program; the customers they manage don't need to enroll in the CSP program.

Microsoft 365 Lighthouse is an admin portal that provides advanced capabilities for Managed Service Providers (MSPs) to manage customers at scale through proactive account management, simplified onboarding, efficient tenant configuration, device protection, and alerts. Lighthouse provides insights into customer acquisition, retention, and growth opportunities, as well as multi-tenant views across customer devices, data, and users to help customers get the most value from Microsoft 365.

To use Sales Advisor to view customer opportunities, you must hold either the Executive report viewer or Report viewer role in Partner Center.

Microsoft Defender Antivirus is part of the Windows operating system and is enabled by default on devices running Windows 10.

[!NOTE] Either granular delegated administrative privileges (GDAP) or a delegated administrative privileges (DAP) relationship is required to onboard customers to Lighthouse. An indirect reseller relationship is no longer required to onboard to Lighthouse. If DAP and GDAP coexist in a customer tenant, GDAP permissions take precedence for MSP technicians in GDAP-enabled security groups. [!NOTE] To use Lighthouse to view opportunities in Sales Advisor, you don't need additional delegated access permissions from the customer.
