Microsoft to stop locking vital security logs behind $57-per-user monthly plan

Who isn&#x27;t hoarding threat data?<p>Taxpayers fund Gov data collections. About 0% of that is available for the public to protect itself. Meanwhile, Gov partners[1] and major campaign donors[2] get forever access to Gov firehoses.<p>1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cisa.gov&#x2F;information-sharing-and-awareness" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cisa.gov&#x2F;information-sharing-and-awareness</a><p>2] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cfr.org&#x2F;report&#x2F;sharing-classified-cyber-threat-information-private-sector" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cfr.org&#x2F;report&#x2F;sharing-classified-cyber-threat-i...</a>

Thought this was posted already, well, kind of, in different forms:<p>CISA announcement <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=36802955">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=36802955</a><p>Microsoft blog <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=36789086">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=36789086</a>

I wonder if this means Business Basic plans will get more that 7 days of login logs. It’s really crappy when someone gets phished and you can only go back 7 days to check for suspicious logins.

Security features should never be locked behind a paywall. Good move by Microsoft, but why only now?
