We are doing a POC for threat detection for IoT devices using Defender for IoT in Azure.

We would like to know what are the supported IoT devices for this.

    Hello @Sai Siva ,

    Azure Defender for IoT comes in two flavors.

    There is a version with an agent to install on your device (agent-based) and a solution that does network packet inspection.

    @Vinodh247-1375 shows a list of protocols that can be inspected so a virtual 'tree' of devices all communicating with each other over the network is built up.

    This can be any network-attached device like a PC or a PLC.

    The other version requires an agent to be installed. This is an application/service running on your device and makes its own secure connection to an IoT Hub. It actually needs credentials provided using a 'Module Identity'.

    There is an agent available for Linux and RTOS.
