Microsoft Defender for Cloud

A cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP) that secures workloads across Azure, AWS, and GCP. It combines security posture management with runtime threat protection plans — including posture and threat detection for generative AI workloads — surfacing attack paths, risk-prioritised recommendations, and alerts centralized in Microsoft Defender.

Capabilities

  • AI Security Posture Management
    ObserveSecure Infrastructure

    Discovers deployed generative AI apps and models across Azure, AWS, and GCP — the AI bill of materials — and assesses their posture, surfacing identity, data, and internet-exposure recommendations, attack paths, and infrastructure-as-code misconfigurations.

  • AI Threat Protection
    SecureObserve Infrastructure

    Detects threats to generative AI workloads at runtime — prompt injection, jailbreak, credential theft, data leakage, and wallet-abuse attacks — for Azure OpenAI models and Azure AI model inference, working with Content Safety Prompt Shields and Microsoft threat intelligence. Alerts are centralized in Microsoft Defender XDR for correlation and response.
