Azure Sphere, Microsofts Linux-Powered IoT Security Service, Launches --
Summary
Microsofts Azure Sphere security solution for Internet of Things (IoT) devices became generally available (GA) on Monday, roughly two years after it was first introduced.

"The guardian module is a very small device -- no larger than the size of a deck of cards -- built around an Azure Sphere chip," Hunt explained in the Q&A. "The opportunity to release a brand-new product that addresses crucial and unmet needs is rare," stated Halina McMaster, a Microsoft principal group program manager, in the announcement. "Azure Sphere is truly unique, our product brings a new technology category to the Microsoft family, to the IoT market, and to the security landscape.
