Is it possible to deploy FEP when you don't have a server?

I am volunteering for a small non-profit, and while we may be deploying our first server soon, It won't be deployed immediately, and we would like to get AV protection on all client machines without violating any license agreements, (All free AV Products license only for use in a home environment.)

Will FEP running in this manner still be a fully functional AV, just lacking the central management features?

Hi,

Thank you for your post here.

I think you can consider standalone FEP as your solution. Standalone FEP can run without SCCM.

Detailed information about how to install it, you can refer the similar threads or helpful articles below:
