Defender for Cloud - Defender Cloud Workload Protection - DNS

Question

In the following location, there used to be a Cloud Workload Protection (CWP) for DNS. That CWP appears to be no longer available. Documentation, searching, and asking Copilot leads me to believe that DNS protection was integrated into another CWP or into one of the Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) plans.

Azure > Microsoft Defender for Cloud > Environment settings > [select subscription] > Settings > Defender plans

Can anyone please tell me into which plan the old DNS CWP was incorporated (either type CSPM or CWP)?

If you have documentation, could you please reference it?

Thank you in advance!
