How do I protect Azure Government instances?

To protect Azure Government instances, Deep Security Manager must be deployed using the Deep Security Manager (BYOL) VM that's listed inside Azure Government's Marketplace (see image below). If you deploy from global Azure's Marketplace, or you deploy onto an Azure instance inside or outside of Azure Government, Deep Security Manager cannot protect your Government instances.

For details on deploying Deep Security Manager (BYOL) within Azure Government, use the version selector at the top of this page to select the Deep Security Azure Marketplace option, and then search for Deep Security Manager VM for Azure Marketplace to find the deployment topic. After Deep Security Manager (BYOL) is deployed, you can use it to protect Azure Government instances, just like you would regular instances.

Be aware that if your Deep Security Manager is outside of Azure Government, using it to manage computers in the Azure Government would break ITAR compliance.
