Description

Microsoft Defender for Cloud now supports, in public preview, onboarding of individual AKS clusters. Instead of having a pre-requisite for onboarding an entire subscription, Microsoft Defender for Cloud now allows for resource level onboarding for AKS clusters. This provides agentless and sensor-based alerts in AKS dashboard, sensor onboarding/offboarding, and cluster operator view of security findings within AKS portal.
