Interactive radial mind map of MDA's 7 capability areas and 25 features — with dotted lines tracing every integration with the Defender XDR stack, Purview, and Entra ID. Click a partner to trace its connections.
Microsoft Purview for data governance, and the rapidly evolving AI threat landscape — from prompt injection to model-supply-chain risk.
The full Purview surface — MIP sensitivity labels, encryption, auto-labeling, DLP, Endpoint DLP, Insider Risk Management, and Adaptive Protection.
The AI threat landscape — prompt injection, jailbreaks, data exfiltration via LLMs, model supply-chain attacks — and how Microsoft's stack defends against each.
Interactive Matrix-styled playbook: the 10 OWASP LLM risks explained in plain English with real examples, attack workflows from attacker to compromised asset, and the Microsoft Protect / Detect / Respond stack for each.
Operational references and end-to-end attack scenarios — material designed to be read, searched, and used during real engagements.
Curated FAQ across Microsoft Security solutions — top questions per product (Purview, Entra, Defender, Intune) with practical answers, including AI security topics.
The 30 most common techniques used by script-kiddies and opportunistic attackers — each paired with the Microsoft Defender control that detects or blocks it.
An end-to-end simulated attack walk-through — from initial access through impact — showing how each Microsoft XDR solution detects, correlates, and responds at every stage.
Interactive explorer of 10 real-world attack chains across 71 stages. For every stage, the top 3 attacker tools paired with the Microsoft defense that detects, prevents, or responds to each — with light/dark theme, compact mode, and per-stage chain progress sidebar.

I work as a Microsoft Cybersecurity Solution Engineer, helping customers design and operationalize security across the Microsoft stack — Azure Security, Microsoft Sentinel, Defender for Cloud, Defender XDR, Entra ID security, and Microsoft Purview (MIP, DLP, Insider Risk Management). This site is my open notebook: mind maps, deep-dive references, and operational notes I've found useful and want to share.
