Overall Satisfaction with Azure Security Center

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We had multiple security products which did not talk to each other, and often didn't know what the other one was doing. Azure Security Center brings security events from many different places into one console where we can investigate, hunt, track and remediate within our ecosystem. That we can dig into events and cross-reference across multiple products and vendors is required to do comprehensive security.
