Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Defender for Cloud

Microsoft Defender for Cloud is a very powerful security solution that provides protection for all of your devices and cloud servers and as a result we saw a significant decline in spam, phishing attempts and other online attacks after implementing it. And my personal favorite is the vault feature which gives me a totally isolated space to keep my documents which can't be accessed by others unless they have a pin and a passphrase which is given by me. Also from time to time, it runs a full system scan on our devices and provides us with security recommendations if needed.
  • Quite easy to set it up and start monitoring all your devices and cloud servers.
  • Automatically scans your devices at a fixed time interval that you can easily set within the app.
  • Again, my personal favorite, the vault feature is a fantastic way to protect your important files.
  • Just like any other security solution, it also has false positives but they are very few and occur rarely.
  • Had some issues while integrating it with google cloud.
  • Again, integrating with devices or systems that are not from microsoft may cause some issues.
  • Easily integrated with our existing Azure servers.
  • Consumes less resources and runs a full system scan on fixed intervals.
  • Much cheaper and more powerful than other similar solutions.
