Perception

Project Perception connects threat intelligence, exposure, detection and remediation

Project Perception's practical value is coordination. Specialized security agents work toward a shared objective, giving customers a clearer path from understanding a threat to deciding what to investigate, detect and fix. Inside Microsoft Defender, six specialized agents work across Red, Blue and Green teams. Their value comes from how their findings help your team decide what to investigate, detect and fix.
