Microsoft has
integrated the security approach throughout its software and service while a
new managed services group and cyber
defense operation centre has been announced
according to the briefings of the Executives.
Over the past year, Microsoft has invested around $1 billion
in security so to double the number of security executives and make thorough
research and development in security. Now, it has broadcasted the launching of
a new cyber defense operations centre and the managed services security group in which the security is integrated with the products and services.
Microsoft executive Dark Reading explained how the new
strategies related to the security had
been established inside the internal network of the company and throughout the
Office, Windows and cloud services offered to the clients.

The primary aim of the Microsoft is to secure, detect and
respond to threats. The executives have pointed billions of services, endpoints
and systems from where the Microsoft has drawn threat intelligence so to use
the Intel for detection, fortification and
respond to the security issues.
In addition, Microsoft
has bought three security firms in the last year that involves cloud security
firm Adallom, behavioural learning and Active Directory security firm Aorato
and most recently, data and file protection firm Secure Islands.
One thing that should always
be remembered is that Microsoft wouldn’t reveal how many security executives
it has again hired for the managed services security in the last year. Microsoft Enterprise Cybersecurity
Group (ECG), a new managed services arm, emphasises on sales and services
particularly the cyber defense. This group is intended to work with the
Microsoft’s security partners, Office 365 and the Azure teams.
