How cloud security protects you from unseen threats

The cloud security advantage
Securing systems, applications, and data begins with identity-based access controls. Features such as single sign-on and multi-factor authentication are built into Microsoft business products and services. They help protect your organizational and personal information from unauthorized access while making it available to legitimate users whenever and wherever they need it.
Data is an organization’s most valuable and irreplaceable asset. Microsoft cloud services have many protections in place to prevent unauthorized access or leakage of data within a multi-tenant cloud environment. These include logical isolation with Azure Active Directory authorization and role-based control, data isolation mechanisms at the storage level, and rigorous physical security.
The cloud enables Microsoft to take our signal, intelligence, and operational experience and use it to implement and continuously improve enterprise-grade threat protection. From Office 365 to Azure, the power of the cloud provides built-in protection for all of our products and services.
