After you connect Microsoft Sentinel to the Defender portal, your existing Azure role-based access control (RBAC) permissions allow you to work with the Microsoft Sentinel features that you have access to. Continue to manage roles and permissions for your Microsoft Sentinel users from the Azure portal. Any Azure RBAC changes are reflected in the Defender portal. For more information about Microsoft Sentinel permissions, see [Roles and permissions in Microsoft Sentinel | Microsoft Learn](/azure/sentinel/roles) and [Manage access to Microsoft Sentinel data by resource | Microsoft Learn](/azure/sentinel/resource-context-rbac).
