Hey Reid, Thanks for the question. Defender for Cloud is a platform for our cloud security solution. There are multiple "plans" involved. See this website to know more: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/business/solutions/cloud-workload-protection Some other plans are Defender for containers, Defender for Storage, Databases protections.
- Could you post links to 1) learning paths for Defender for cloud 2) clearinghouse for marketing/sales materials Thanks!
- Thomas_ZouI can help with the marketing materials - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security/business/cloud-security/microsoft-defender-cloud you can go to the MDC website for our messaging, customer stories, AR reports, Demo guides and more. Please let me know if you have more specific needs!
- Thanks!
- Sure thing. In respect of the learning paths for Defender for Cloud, I highly suggest the following resource: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-defender-for-cloud/become-a-microsoft-defender-for-cloud-ninja/ba-p/1608761 . Let me know, if this helps.
- Thanks!

- Hello everyone. Nice to reach out to you. This is Abraham Mateos, CEO at Kumy Solutions. I only have one question. In relation to one of our main projects, where we will use Azure services, we would like to know what are the latest implementations to secure data processing/transferring and its content integrity if we are dealing with satellite sensors communication. Thanks!
- Hi Abraham. Thank you for joining. There are two parts of the questions, they way I understand it. One around discovering sensitive data, which we can provide using the data sensitivity capabilities in Microsoft Defender for Cloud or thought the integration between Microsoft Defender for Cloud and Microsoft Purview. The second part of the question, is around how Azure services in general handle secure data processing, for which I'd like to share a link to the following resources that might be of real value: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/trust-center/product-overview#:~:text=Products%20and%20services%20that%20run,compliance%2C%20and%20transparency%20in%20mind. Hope I understood your scenario correctly.
- Absolutely. Thank you Bojan!
- I would like to know as well what are the main tools and measures if we wrangle and manager data on satellite onboarding. Thanks!
- Can you maybe share more details around the scenario? Want to ensure I understood the scenario correctly. Also, if you're considering using specific Azure services, would you mind sharing which Azure services? It would be helpful to understand which ones, so we can validate how these services could be protected with Microsoft Defender for Cloud.
- Thanks Trevor for directing me to the right place. My first question is a basic one. What, in a sentence or two, is MS Defender for Cloud? How does it relate to the other "defender for..." services?
Nice to meet you electronically Dan. Thank you for joining. It's a great question. My take on it is that Microsoft Defender for Cloud is a solution that helps you protect your hybrid and cloud workloads across IaaS and PaaS. Defender for Cloud is part of the wider Microsoft Defender eco-system, which covers other types of workloads, like identities, client endpoints, or SaaS applications, and integrates with other Microsoft Defender products. This also is where a solution like Microsoft Sentinel can be of real value, because Sentinel can provide end-to-end visibility across the entire digital estate and various Microsoft Defender products. Let us know, if this helps.
- Very useful, thanks!
- How do you control defend for cloud settings at a more granular level then a subscription? For example, I have multiple resource groups for servers and I want plan 1 on some and plan 2 on others.
- Echoing Thomas's answer. Tim - I'd love to connect offline to discuss more about your requirements and need for granularity. Can we reach out to you in the future about this one?
- Absolutely. Happy to provide feedback.
- Thomas_ZouHey Tim, Great question, we have heard similar feedback, and this more granular control is something our product team is thinking about as well. We can't reveal the precise timeline for its release, but it is on our agenda.
