+## **Microsoft Defender for Cloud**
+
+The Microsoft Defender for Cloud connector imports vulnerability findings from **Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management (MDVM)** as surfaced by Defender for Cloud — both **server** findings (Azure VM operating\-system and installed\-software CVEs) and **container\-registry** findings (container image CVEs), including severity, CVSS score, the affected package or image, and remediation. DefectDojo discovers the Azure **subscriptions** your service principal can read and creates a Record for each enabled subscription.
+
+**Please note:** this Connector is distinct from the **Microsoft Defender** connector, which imports device findings from the Defender for Endpoint API. Defender for Cloud is an Azure product with a different API surface (Azure Resource Manager / Resource Graph) and permission model (Azure RBAC). Run whichever matches where your findings live — or both, if you use both products.
+
+#### Prerequisites
+
+You need one or more **Azure subscriptions with Microsoft Defender for Cloud enabled**, with the relevant Defender plans turned on for the resources you want scanned (under **Microsoft Defender for Cloud \> Environment settings**, then select your subscription):
+
+* **Defender for Servers (Plan 2)** — Azure VM operating\-system and software CVE findings (agentless vulnerability scanning).
+* **Defender for Containers** — container\-registry image CVE findings.
+
+SQL vulnerability\-assessment and configuration/posture findings are intentionally **not** imported — this connector imports CVE vulnerabilities only.
+
+The connector authenticates as a Microsoft Entra ID **app registration** using the client credentials flow:
+
+1. In the [Azure portal](https://portal.azure.com), open **App registrations \> New registration**. Name it (for example `defectdojo-connector`), leave the defaults, and select **Register**.
+2. On the app's **Overview** page, note the **Application (client) ID** and **Directory (tenant) ID**.
+3. Open **Certificates & secrets \> New client secret**, set an expiry, and copy the secret **Value** immediately (it is shown only once). The Connector stops working when the secret expires, so note the date.
+4. Grant the app read access to each subscription you want to import: open **Subscriptions**, select your subscription, then **Access control (IAM) \> Add \> Add role assignment**. Select the **Security Reader** role (or **Reader**), and on the **Members** tab assign it to the app you created — search for it by the app's **name** or **object ID**, as the picker does not match the client ID. Repeat for every subscription.
+
+Unlike the device\-based Microsoft Defender connector, no API permissions or admin consent are required: Defender for Cloud access is governed entirely by the Azure RBAC role assignment above.
+
+#### Connector Mappings
+
+1. Enter `https://management.azure.com` in the **Location** field. (For sovereign clouds, use the matching ARM endpoint, for example `https://management.usgovcloudapi.net`.)
+2. Enter the **Directory (tenant) ID** in the **Tenant ID** field.
+3. Enter the **Application (client) ID** in the **Client ID** field.
+4. Enter the client secret value in the **Client Secret** field.
+5. Optionally, set a **Minimum Severity** to limit which findings are imported.
+
+Each enabled Azure subscription becomes a Record. Findings are read through Azure Resource Graph, so they surface promptly once Defender for Cloud has scanned your resources — but the scans themselves run on Microsoft's schedule: container\-registry images are usually scanned within an hour of being pushed, while a VM's first agentless vulnerability scan can take several hours. A newly enabled subscription will legitimately Sync zero findings until its resources have been scanned.
