Hi everyone,

I am just getting started in azure which has lead me to a very junior license question. I have noticed we have a few licenses in our managed azure tenant which are not assigned. Licenses include:

Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps

Microsoft Defender for Identity

  • Azure AD P2

What account should I assign these too? We already have access to these features via 365 Defender.

Any guidance on this would be greatly appreciated
