Microsoft has expanded its https://azure.microsoft.com/products/defender-for-cloud/ security platform with two new preview services — https://aka.ms/defender4devops and https://aka.ms/DefenderCSPM. At the company’s annual https://ignite.microsoft.com/en-US/home conference this week, Microsoft introduced the new Defender products to help developers mitigate security vulnerabilities and respond to attacks, said Shawn Bice, corporate vice president of Cloud Security at Microsoft.

“At Microsoft, we’re approaching cloud security with an infinite mindset,” Bice said in a https://www.microsoft.com/security/blog/2022/10/12/introducing-new-microsoft-defender-for-cloud-innovations-to-strengthen-cloud-native-protections/.

“The new Defender for DevOps helps you secure the entire development lifecycle and unify DevOps security management across multiple environments.” Moreover, Defender for DevOps correlates with other cloud security efforts to remediate code vulnerabilities and apply security guardrails throughout the application development lifecycle, Bice said.
