Shares here are read over the models both editions asked, so they can differ by a point or two from the standing above, which counts every model in this edition.

The floor is 11 points of share, measured: how far the models move a leader on their own when the same questions are asked twice with nothing changed. A larger change is movement; a smaller one is noise, and both are shown. Movement is read over the twelve models both editions asked; GPT-6 Luna, Muse Glimmer 30B joined this edition and are in the standing but not yet in the comparison.

What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“if you already have Microsoft 365 E5: Microsoft lists identity security and ITDR among its included capabilities” GPT-6 Luna · ITDR · budget prompt · alternative

And against it

“Full Microsoft 365 E5 ($57/user/month) — only worth it if you need the entire bundle, not just DLP” DeepSeek V4 Flash · DLP · budget prompt · soft negative
