At the time of XP, Microsoft had a fierce monopoly in the world and was absolutely dominating.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they started embracing the “ship fast” mentality with the cloud a bit more over the past years, in order to corner the market more quickly (which they did).
Additionally, I can also imagine that the release processes for cloud are fundamentally different than something like an OS. With the cloud, there’s a much larger mentality of releasing often, and it may be difficult to translate rigorous security audits to this workflow.
