2018: Azure Security Center Year in Review
Last day of the year, and this was a great year for Azure Security Center. Looking back to all improvements that were introduced since the beginning of the year, it shows that we are going in the right direction. These improvements were based on customer's feedback, and to address key Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) and Cloud Workload Protection Platform (CWPP) scenarios.
To recap this year, you can see the list of release notes that were published throughout the year:
