How frequently does Azure Security Center assess the security of your resources?

Azure Security Center assesses the security of your resources continuously. This means that it is actively monitoring and evaluating the security state of your Azure resources in real-time or near real-time. This continuous assessment allows organizations to receive timely alerts about potential vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, or security threats, enabling them to respond swiftly to issues as they arise.

This continuous approach is essential for maintaining a robust security posture, especially in cloud environments where threats can change rapidly. By continuously assessing security, Azure Security Center supports proactive security management, helping organizations to adhere to best practices and compliance requirements effectively.
