Microsoft 365 security and compliance center improvements

Microsoft did separate the Security and Compliance Center into two individual centers. Not only that, they both did get an updated user interface. You might think, why did they do that? The answer is clear. The more options they add to the center, the more we need to search for them. If we have individual centers, it’s easier to navigate through these settings. That’s why they did introduce Microsoft 365 security and Microsoft 365 compliance as individual centers.
