Cyber-attacks are increasing in volume and sophistication, evading traditional defenses, and posing a growing risk to enterprises from outside criminal organizations and malicious insiders in the organization.

With this breadth and depth of clarity defenders can now focus on critical threats and hunt for sophisticated breaches, trusting that the powerful automation in Microsoft's security products detects and stops attacks anywhere in the cyber-attack kill chains and returns the organization to a secure state. Join our team of engineers to develop cutting edge detection and remediation systems. Be a part of defining and shaping the next big leap in the product's journey.
