-New customers onboarding after **July 1, 2025** with the relevant permissions are automatically onboarded to the Microsoft Defender portal and access Microsoft Sentinel in the Azure portal only. Existing customers, and new users without relevant permissions, can continue to use Microsoft Sentinel in the Azure portal. Starting in **July 2026**, all customers using Microsoft Sentinel in the Azure portal will be redirected to the Defender portal. We recommend that you start planning your transition to the Defender portal to ensure a smooth transition and take full advantage of the new features offered by Microsoft Defender. For more information, see [Microsoft Sentinel in the Azure portal deprecation timeline](../overview.md#microsoft-sentinel-in-the-azure-portal-deprecation-timeline) and [It’s Time to Move: Retiring Microsoft Sentinel’s Azure Portal for Greater Security](https://aka.ms/time-to-move-to-defender).
