Today we announced the launch of the Microsoft Graph Security Hackathon. We invite you to join it and submit your creative applications that can help improve organizations’ cyber defenses. You’ll have the chance to win* a piece of the $15,000 cash prize pool as well as a speaking opportunity at Microsoft Build 2019.

Tap into the Microsoft Graph Security API and mash up with other APIs to build solutions that can help streamline security operations. The Microsoft Graph Security API connects multiple security solutions, with a unified schema, to enable easier correlation of alerts, provide access to rich contextual information, and simplify automation. This empowers organizations to quickly gain insights and take actions across their security products, while reducing the cost and complexity of building and maintaining multiple integrations.
