Hello Ryan Heffernan , unfortunately I don't know the answer here since antimalware license is not my domain. I will send this question to the right PM internally and will CC you.

  I guess customers will have to go with System Center Licensing as it doesn't seem to be any license method for licensing Hybrid Workloads, I see this as a blocker for Azure Adoption.
