Microsoft Security

Microsoft Security provides an integrated suite of cloud-based security solutions designed to protect identities, data, applications, endpoints, and infrastructure across hybrid and multi-cloud environments. Its primary purpose is to help organizations detect, prevent, and respond to cyber threats using advanced analytics, threat intelligence, and automated protection. Built to work natively with Microsoft 365, Azure, and on-premises systems, it centralizes security management and visibility across the enterprise.

Key capabilities include identity and access management with Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD), enabling conditional access, single sign-on, and multi-factor authentication. Microsoft Defender delivers extended detection and response (XDR) across endpoints, email, identities, and cloud resources, using AI-driven threat detection and automated remediation. Microsoft Sentinel provides a cloud-native SIEM and SOAR platform for collecting security data at scale, correlating events, and orchestrating incident response. Additional features include data loss prevention, information protection, endpoint management via Intune, and security posture management tools such as Defender for Cloud and Secure Score.
