Hello All,

I am looking to spin up the Microsoft Defender External Attack Surface Management resource in my tenant and was trying to find documentation on how to spin it down after the 30-day trail if it does not fit our needs.

Also looking for documentation/insight on what constitutes an asset as it is not very well defined in any of the documentation I have read to date.

Any feedback is much appreciated.

Cheers,

    @BCSecA Thank you for reaching out to us, researched on your queries related to Microsoft Defender EASM.

    Query 1: how to spin it down after the 30-day trial if it does not fit our needs.

    All resources will receive a 30-day free trial. During this time, you will have access to all functionality, and you will see a message indicating how many days are left in your free trial.

    What happens on Day 31 -

    Option 1: Delete the resource before the end of the trial and billing will not start.

    Option 2: if you want to continue using it, the billing charges will begin.
