Microsoft’s new endpoint offering matches events on the endpoint with its cloud-based Security Graph, which gathers data on more than 1 billion Windows devices worldwide and detects some 1 million suspicious files each day. The service also encompasses data from Microsoft’s Digital Crimes Unit, and industry partners in the threat intelligence arena. “Once you detect something’s up or a pattern of logins looks sketchy ... it examines devices, file footprints, and has a ‘Minority Report’ feature where you can time-travel and look at the state of a machine over the last six months,” for example, Mehdi says.

Suffered a network breach? Microsoft's latest cloud-based data security service can help administrators prevent their Windows devices from giving up the goods. 
Using as a backdrop this week's RSA Conference—when the IT industry turns its attention to information security—the software giant on March 1 announced Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection. Borrowing the name of Windows' built-in anti-malware software, the upcoming product helps make Windows 10 systems less susceptible to data leaks, even if an attacker has already managed to breach a corporate network. 
"To help protect our enterprise customers, we are developing Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection, a new service that will help enterprises to detect, investigate and respond to advanced attacks on their networks," Terry Myerson, executive vice president of Microsoft's Windows and Devices group, said in a March 1 announcement. "Building on the existing security defenses Windows 10 offers today, Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection provides a new post-breach layer of protection to the Windows 10 security stack." full article here:
