# Implementing Azure Defender for Cloud

## When to Use

- When enabling comprehensive security monitoring across Azure subscriptions
- When implementing cloud workload protection for VMs, containers, SQL, storage, and Key Vault
- When compliance requirements demand continuous assessment against regulatory frameworks
- When building adaptive security controls that respond to detected threats
- When centralizing security findings from Azure-native and hybrid workloads

**Do not use** for non-Azure workload protection exclusively (use AWS Security Hub or GCP SCC), for application-level security testing (use Azure DevOps DAST/SAST), or for identity-specific protection (use Microsoft Defender for Identity).
