Endpoint Protection 2012 without SCCM 2012 ?

[BOOTHG599]

Can System Center 2012 Endpoint Protection be managed/deployed with the mangement console for the 2010 version of Forefront Endpoint? We have licenses for those . We don't have a license for SCCM 2012.

Thanks!

I think the best place to get that answer is from your Microsoft representative, if you have the Core or Enterprise CAL you should be ok to install Configuration Manager, do you ?

If it cannot, then how does one manage it via Group Policies and such?

[BOOTHG599]

No we do not have either.

i believe TrueSec sell an application to manage small deployments of Endpoint Protection

 

here is their website explaining it, there's a trial download too

alternatively there is Windows Intune which can install and manage (via the cloud) the Windows Intune version of Endpoint Protection, it's not free either but it works very well indeed
