A recent update to Azure Security Center includes these features: * **Welcome experience** The new Security Center welcome experience helps you find relevant trial subscriptions and get the most out of your 60-day trial. * **Confidence score** Security Center helps you prioritize which alerts to investigate in an [alert confidence score](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/security-center/security-center-confidence-score), which helps your team triage and prioritize alerts. Security Center automatically applies industry best practices, intelligent algorithms, and processes used by analysts to determine whether a threat is legitimate and provides you with meaningful insights in the confidence score. * **Data security and Network security blades** The **Data security** and **Network security** blades were updated to align with other resources in the **Security hygiene** blades. The new **Data security** blade provides separate tabs for SQL and storage account resources. The new **Network security** blade provides networking recommendations on the **Overview** tab. * **Management groups and security policy management** [Security Center security policies](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/security-center/security-center-azure-policy) are now integrated with Azure Policy. This enables you to set security policies per management group, and not just on a single subscription. Security Center security policies are now grouped according to their relevant resources—for example, compute or data. * **Event data collection** For new customers only, by default, the security event data collection tier is set to **None** and raw security data is not enabled. This will not affect your ability to get recommendations based on your events. To modify these settings, see [Data collection tier](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/security-center/security-center-enable-data-collection#data-collection-tier). * **New API** The [Security Center API ](https://docs.microsoft.com/rest/api/securitycenter/)was updated. * **Feedback mechanism** You can now send the Security Center team feedback about a threat detection alert. This feature, accessible from any individual alert, enables you to be part of our security community and enhance our threat detection and fine-tune our alerts. * Features * Services
