Registering AWS and GCP Subscriptions
After setting up Azure Arc, you register your AWS and GCP subscriptions within Azure. This registration creates a connection between each cloud provider and Defender for Cloud, allowing Azure to discover resources in those environments. Without registration, AWS and GCP resources remain invisible to Defender for Cloud and cannot be protected by Azure security policies. The registration process uses OAuth connections between the cloud platforms to establish trust.
