Regarding the transformation add-on “Azure Compliance (Premium)”, I have several questions:
- Could we have a trial for a period before paying for it? We need to know if the new features are expected and required.
- Currently, the add-on is for CIS 1.3. I know CQ is working on Azure CIS 2.0. If we paid for the premium package for CIS 1.3, will we have to pay again for 2.0 later?
- How is support priced? If it is only for 6 months after the license purchase, can that be renewed without paying $5k again?
- Is there another add-on for “Cloud Security Benchmark”?
Hey @calm-walrus, thanks for your questions.
-
For the trial - we offer 10% of the policy as free so you can try the framework. Have you tried the corresponding free version of the Azure Compliance policy? We’re also continuing to update our documentation for transformations so it’ll be easier to determine what each transformation contains.
-
CIS 2.0 is in the roadmap. If that’s released within the license period (6 months for license purchase), you will be able to get 2.0.
-
The pricing for the license purchases is for 6 months and then you have an option to renew for the same price (and that includes support/access to download the policy pack).

Are you referring to the Microsoft Azure Cloud Security Benchmark? We’re looking at adding that to our roadmap as well.
