Hi Raghvendra Singh Chauhan,

Here are some common sense suggestions:

• Defender for Cloud is enabled by default. Just go to the Recommendations tab and start looking at the tips provided there.
• When you're ready for the next level, enable Defender for Cloud CSPM for a small number of resources within one of your subscriptions. Now you will start to see the value of CSPM performing hundreds of checks on your resources and providing more information in the recommendations tab.
• When you're ready to protect workloads, such as VMs and databases, you will want to start toggling on the appropriate workload protections such as Defender for Server and Defender for SQL Server. Now you're using both CSPM and CWPP capabilities.
