Sorry but your statement is not entirely correct. While the alerts from MDI are displayed in the M365 Security center, setting up, configuration and management tasks are performed in an Azure based portal

- Or TsemahOct 25, 2021Former EmployeeRight, but that's a different (and dedicated) portal for MDI (which is being converged into security.microsoft.com)
