Microsoft Threat Detection and Response: Five Key Pitfalls (and How to Address Them)
Download the eBook
Organizations are increasingly turning to the cloud in their attempt to become more agile and efficient. Many will choose the Microsoft ecosystem and will need to become familiar with threat detection and response offered by this environment, how these technologies can be leveraged to their full potential, and what should be supplemented to avoid unnecessary risk. Gain up-to-date insights into these issues in our eBook, Microsoft Threat Detection and Response: Five Key Pitfalls (and How to Address Them).
The eBook covers:
- Common security challenges organizations face when moving to a Microsoft cloud environment
- How to get the most value from solutions such as Microsoft Sentinel and the Microsoft XDR solutions, Microsoft 365 Defender and Microsoft Defender for Cloud
- Practical steps to help accelerate threat detection and response across your Microsoft estate
- Insights from a real-life case study
Pitfall 1: Not Understanding Where to Prioritize with Your E5/Microsoft Defender License | Pitfall 2: Buying Microsoft Security Solutions Before Understanding How to Configure Them | Pitfall 3: Not Leveraging Response Automation and Native Integrations |
|---|---|---|
A common challenge for many organizations is a lack of certainty around which Microsoft Defender/E5 products should be prioritized, and which solution they need to onboard first out of Microsoft Defender for Office 365, Microsoft Defender for Identity, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, Defender for Cloud Apps. Cost effectiveness also needs to be taken into account, with differences in licensing structures between products and additional data ingestion and storage charges when too much data is consumed. | Many organizations make the error of committing financially to adopting security solutions before fully understanding the breadth of time and insight required to optimize them. Failing to ensure that effective configuration is in place in order to identify the right telemetry and activity can cause monitoring to become redundant. The good news is that Microsoft has made it simple to integrate Microsoft Defender and other E5 security solutions into Microsoft Sentinel. The bad news is that, without proper configuration and implementation of these underlying features, you won’t gain value from them. | Organizations don’t frequently automate response playbooks with on-premise environments because of the negative impacts this can have on more legacy technology which also demands specific on-site forensics. However, as the cloud is both highly accessible and fast-moving, response should be highly automated. Companies should leverage native Microsoft tools such as Azure Logic Apps and Power Automate to set up automated cloud responses and build playbooks that are native in Microsoft Sentinel. |
