- Whenever new infrastructure is provisioned and new VMs are created, as a backup admin, you need to ensure their protection. You can easily configure backups for one or two VMs. But it becomes complex when you need to configure hundreds or even thousands of VMs at scale. To simplify the process of configuring backups, Azure Backup provides you with a set of built-in Azure Policies to govern your backup estate.

- **Auto-enable backup on VMs using Policy (Central backup team model)**: If your organization has a central backup team that manages backups across application teams, you can use this policy to configure backup to an existing central Recovery Services vault in the same subscription and location as that of the VMs. You can choose to include/exclude VMs that contain a certain tag from the policy scope.

- **Auto-enable backup on VMs using Policy (where backup owned by application teams)**: If you organize applications in dedicated resource groups and want to have them backed-up by the same vault, use this policy to automatically manage this action.

- **Monitoring Policy**: To generate the Backup Reports for your resources, enable the diagnostic settings when you create a new vault. Often, adding a diagnostic setting manually per vault can be a cumbersome task. So, you can utilize an Azure built-in policy that configures the diagnostics settings at scale to all vaults in each subscription or resource group, with Log Analytics as the destination.
