Azure Security Center provides unified security management and advanced threat protection for workloads running in Azure, on-premises, and in other clouds. It delivers visibility and control over hybrid cloud workloads, active defenses that reduce your exposure to threats, and intelligent detection to help you keep pace with rapidly evolving cyber attacks.

Security Center is offered in two tiers:

-
- The **Free** tier is enabled on all your Azure subscriptions once you visit the Azure Security Center dashboard in the Azure portal for the first time, or if enabled programmatically via API. The free tier provides security policy, continuous security assessment, and actionable security recommendations to help you protect your Azure resources.
24
-
- The **Standard** tier extends the capabilities of the Free tier to workloads running in private and other public clouds, providing unified security management and threat protection across your hybrid cloud workloads. The standard tier also adds threat protection capabilities, which use built-in behavioral analytics and machine learning to identify attacks and zero-day exploits, access and application controls to reduce exposure to network attacks and malware, and more. In addition, standard tier adds vulnerability scanning for your virtual machines. You can try the standard tier for free. Security Center standard supports Azure resources including VMs, Virtual machine scale sets, App Service, SQL servers, and Storage accounts. If you have Azure Security Center standard, you can opt out of support based on resource type.

Most of the free tier security assessments for VMs, as well many of the standard tier security alerts, require the installation of the Log Analytics agent capability. You can enable Auto Provision on Security Center to automatically deploy the agent for your Azure VMs.

Whether an alert is generated by Security Center, or received by Security Center from a different security product, you can export it. To export your alerts to Azure Sentinel (or a third-party SIEM) or any other external tool, follow the instructions in [Exporting alerts to a SIEM](continuous-export.md).
