Azure Security Center provides a central place for security management and advanced threat protection across Azure and the hybrid cloud. With security center, we can apply security policies across workloads, limit exposure to threats, and detect and respond to attacks. It comes in two tiers, free and standard. The free tier is enabled by default, and it provides a security policy, continuous security assessment, and actionable security recommendations to protect Azure resources. The standard tier extends to private or hybrid cloud workloads and adds advanced threat detection. Advanced threat detection uses built-in behavioral analytics and machine learning to identify attacks and zero-day exploits to reduce exposure to any type of attack.
