Microsoft: 8 trillion daily signals power our cybersecurity services By 04:37 PM Microsoft's security services grew by $10 billion in 2020, as more companies began utilizing their cloud-based security services. Microsoft released the second quarter of the fiscal year 2021 earnings this week and beat consensus estimates by 7.36%. While most of this growth is attributed to Azure and Xbox, Microsoft's new blog post shows that security services are becoming a larger part of their revenue stream. According to Vasu Jakkal, CVP of Security, Compliance and Identity, Microsoft security offerings have generated $10 billion in revenue over the past 12 months and have realized a 40% year-over-year growth. "Yesterday, Satya shared an important milestone for our security business: $10 billion in revenue in the past 12 months representing more than 40 percent year-over-year growth. A number inclusive of our security, compliance, identity and management businesses, and a testament to the trust our customers have placed in us," Jakkal stated in a new blog post.
