Microsoft Delays Migration of Microsoft Sentinel from Azure Portal to Microsoft Defender Portal

Microsoft has postponed the migration of the Microsoft Sentinel experience from the Azure portal to the Microsoft Defender portal, moving the deadline from July 1, 2026, to March 31, 2027. This nearly nine-month extension comes in response to customer and partner requests for more time to complete the transition. The end-of-management date for Microsoft Sentinel in Azure has thus been extended. No additional technical details or specific operational impacts are mentioned.
