    It's depend what's roles and responsibility do you have provided by admin.

    1) Check SEPM are updated or not latest defination.

    2) How many system are updated latest defination.

    3) Checked SEPM Database ,Logs,event,risk analysis etc.

    We have create the email task which can send the old date defintion report so we can track and update.

    Check the virus log to clean it from network.

    Policies review and applied on my system to confirm all is fine.

    I have check both the virus report and scan according to it.

    As per my understanding we need to check/monitor the following's on daily basis.

    -- Virus Definition of SEPM

    -- Top source of attack.

    -- Free Disk space of SEPM drive.

    -- Left Alone Risk.

    -- All action Failed risk.

    -- AV Engine Off / Autoprotect off clients.

    -- Outdated SEP Clients.

    -- Configured Unmanaged Detector and notification as well for the same.

     

    Please suggest.

    checking the risk log and the action taken against on the risk should be captured.

    Also check the top source of infection and check for the security status of those systems.

    Enable the policy where in user should not be able to disable the antivirus.

    But here little confused. Need to check for left alone action or all failed action?

    i would suggest both , as appropriate actions needs to be formulated. Actions like restart of the system, scanning in safe mode has to be suggested.

    You obviously want to check both those actions as it means SEP couldn't remove the virus, it will only block access to it. Those two actions indiciate it needs to manually be acted upon
