Microsoft Defender supports small and medium businesses, which have experienced security breaches in the past year, lacking the resources of large companies to protect themselves. CONTRIBUTED PHOTOON Monday, Microsoft Corp. announced the general availability (GA) of the standalone version of Microsoft Defender for Business. That concern was well-founded because nearly one in four SMBs surveyed reported experiencing a security breach in the past year. "Microsoft believes in security for all," said Vasu Jakkal, CVP for Security, Compliance and Identity at Microsoft. With the GA of Defender for Business, SMBs will get greater protection with simplified security to help them better protect, detect and respond to threats."
