As of June 2024, we're enhancing the visibility of our Azure Service Health security communications. Typically, notifications are issued at the corresponding level for which they are architected, i.e. if a service is architected at the subscription level, we will send communications at the subscription level. Conversely, if the service is architected at the tenant level (such as Entra) we will send communications at the tenant level.

There's an important difference between Service Health security advisories and [Microsoft Defender for Cloud](../defender-for-cloud/defender-for-cloud-introduction.md) security notifications. Security advisories in Service Health provide notifications dealing with platform vulnerabilities and security and privacy breaches at the subscription and tenant level, while security notifications in Microsoft Defender for Cloud communicate vulnerabilities that pertain to affected individual Azure resources.
