Microsoft 365 security monitoring focuses on identities, endpoints, and application activity across Exchange, SharePoint, and Teams. By leveraging Microsoft Defender XDR, the system correlates data to detect anomalies and behavioral deviations.
Microsoft integrates insights from the MSRC and global threat research, using AI to analyze 78 trillion daily signals. This automated intelligence identifies zero-day threats, which are immediately escalated to the 24/7 Cyber Defense Operations Center (CDOC) for mitigation. This unified approach ensures proactive protection across the entire productivity suite. - Incident management type

Microsoft maintains a rigorous incident management process to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of customer data within the Microsoft 365 environment. Aligned with NIST SP 800-61, this process defines dedicated workstreams for rapid notification, escalation, and containment of threats.
Cyber Defense Operations Center (CDOC) and Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC) specialize in cloud forensics and evidence preservation. They leverage Microsoft Defender XDR and Microsoft Sentinel to correlate signals across identities, endpoints, and cloud apps. To ensure readiness, response plans are continuously validated through Red Team simulations and live site "Game Day" exercises, ensuring resilient protection against evolving SaaS-based threats. - Post-quantum cryptography secure
