Microsoft said it lost weeks of security logs for its customers' cloud products

If you use Azure in any realistic production environments, then it's on you. Even with $100k in free credits, they couldn't convince me to use it for more than a month. It is expensive, the interface is highly user unfriendly and most important of all, their products don't at all seem reliable for production workloads because of stuff like this. Sorry Microsoft, I think you can do much better.

I was laughing recently when at some place they started to install MS software on all Linux machines to integrate them into Azure. At that point you should just stop and think for a while about it. Didn’t you go for Linux because you wanted to have a reliable system?

The MS security software (for better or worse), is better than any open-source linux solution, and can follow attackers as they move laterally through the network, instead of linux servers being a big black hole were adversaries can do as they please.

All security software from any vendor is going to have issues, and often you just have to go with whatever the company is running for the whole environment and not compromising security because of some jokes from the 90s

All the Linux shops I know not using MS security are doing just fine and probably better given the current headline you’re commenting under

You seemed to have missed my point entirely.

If your organization is running a chosen enterprise security solution, often fragmentation is not better, whatever your reasoning.
