Onboarding Linux

If your servers are in Azure or managed with Azure Arc, Microsoft Defender for Cloud is an onboarding option, just as with Windows Server. When you onboard devices using Microsoft Defender for Cloud, it is branded as Microsoft Defender for Servers. Deployment of the client and onboarding to your specific MDE instance is configured automatically this way.

Configuration management tools such as Ansible, Chef, and Puppet can be used to deploy and onboard but are not mandatory: an onboarding script is also available. In this chapter, we will focus on using the script and Microsoft Defender for Cloud.
