Protecting against external threats
Azure Synapse integrates with the Microsoft Defender for Cloud platform to assess, secure, and defend your cloud resources. The platform actively monitors your cloud environments on Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) to track your security efforts, provide security recommendations, and defend and alert you of security incidents in real time.
The Microsoft Defender for Cloud integration with Azure Synapse offers support for Microsoft Defender for SQL only, allowing you to monitor your dedicated SQL pools for SQL injection attacks, uncommon access attempts for database queries, and suspicious activity that could be malicious. This integration does not currently include serverless SQL pools, Apache Spark pools, or Data Explorer pools. For that reason, we will not cover this capability in detail.
