Explanation

Explanation

Microsoft 365 Defender (Option C) is the correct portal because app governance is a feature integrated within the Microsoft 365 Defender portal (defender.microsoft.com), where you navigate to Cloud Apps > App governance to enable and manage the add-on - this is the designated unified security hub where the integration toggle is activated.

• Option A (Defender for Cloud Apps portal) is a distractor because while app governance is closely related to Defender for Cloud Apps, the standalone MDCA portal does not host the enablement toggle; the integration is managed through the unified Microsoft 365 Defender experience.
• Option B (Microsoft 365 admin center) handles licensing and tenant-wide administrative settings, but security feature integrations like app governance are not enabled there.
• Option D (Azure Active Directory admin center) manages identity and access configurations, not security app integrations like app governance.
• Option E (Microsoft Purview compliance portal) focuses on compliance, data governance, and information protection - not cloud app security features.

Memory Tip: Think of Microsoft 365 Defender as the single pane of glass for all Microsoft security products - if a question involves enabling a security-related add-on (like app governance), the answer almost always points to the Microsoft 365 Defender portal.
