Architecting a deployment framework
Many of you may already have experience in developing an architectural framework for deploying new infrastructure or services, while others may not. We won’t go deep into it here, but after working through this chapter and capturing all the relevant data from your environment, you should aggregate the information into a structured project plan or deployment framework. For our purposes, at a minimum, you would want it to include the following:
- A design document:
- Which systems you’ll be targeting (also known as defining your scope)
- Which antivirus will be used (if not yet adopting the full platform immediately)
- Which Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) product will be used (if not yet adopting the full platform immediately)
- What tenant the data will reside in
- Two architectural diagrams:
- The existing architecture
- MDE added (with an overlay or new parts colorized)
- Select your configuration options: List them out fully and run...
