𝗔𝘇𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗔𝗿𝗰 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀: From Onboarding to Governance

In this session we’ll explore how to onboard on-premises and multi-cloud servers into Azure using Azure Arc, and then extend Azure governance and security controls to them.
We’ll break down what Arc-enabled servers are, why they matter, and show—step by step—how to bring non-Azure machines into the Azure control plane.
You’ll see, in practice:

• What Azure Arc is and how Arc-enabled servers work
• Onboarding a Windows/Linux server into Azure Arc
• Using Azure Policy for compliance (patching, configuration, security baselines)
• Applying RBAC, tags, and locks to non-Azure resources
• Integrating with Defender for Cloud for advanced security insights
• Monitoring with Azure Monitor & Insights

### Who should attend

Infra/Cloud engineers, architects, platform & ops teams, and anyone managing hybrid or multicloud servers who wants to unify governance and security under Azure.

### Key takeaways

• Understand what Arc-enabled servers are and why they’re useful
• Learn a repeatable, portal-based onboarding approach
• Extend Azure governance (Policy, RBAC, Defender) to hybrid servers
• Avoid common pitfalls (network/firewall requirements, agent issues, identity setup)
