Microsoft’s Shocking Cybersecurity U-Turn: Ditches MITRE Test for Innovation!
Microsoft’s decision to ditch the MITRE ATT&CK evaluations is as surprising as finding a cat in a dog costume. They once flaunted Microsoft Defender XDR’s results like a peacock at a pigeon party. Now, they’re claiming innovation, but experts suspect these tests might be more about marketing than actual cyber wizardry.
Hot Take:
Well, well, well, it seems like Microsoft Defender XDR, ESET, and Cybereason decided to skip out on the ATT&CK Evaluations test like it’s last year’s ugly Christmas sweater party. Instead of basking in the spotlight, these cyber titans are opting for a little R&D and innovation spa day. Meanwhile, experts are whispering that the ATT&CK test might be more of a beauty pageant than a grueling obstacle course. Who knew cybersecurity had its own version of The Bachelor?
