microsoft.com

Depends
Confidence: Low

  • Microsoft 365-heavy organizations
  • Zero Trust rollouts
  • Companies with dedicated security admins

When microsoft.com is not a fit

  • Small teams needing basic antivirus
  • Startups without security staff
  • Anyone wanting quick standalone tools
  • Buyers avoiding ecosystem lock-in
