Cyber threats targeting Microsoft cloud environments are increasing in sophistication and frequency \u2014 credential attacks, business email compromise, ransomware delivered through cloud applications, and lateral movement across Microsoft 365 and Azure workloads. Detecting and responding to these threats requires security operations capabilities that are natively integrated with the Microsoft ecosystem: a cloud-native SIEM that ingests Microsoft signals, XDR that correlates threats across identity, endpoint, email, and cloud applications, and AI-powered investigation tools that accelerate response.<\/p>\n

One Step Beyond specialises in security operations within the Microsoft cloud ecosystem. As a certified Microsoft Solutions Partner for Modern Work & Security, our engineers implement Microsoft Sentinel as SIEM and SOAR, Microsoft Defender XDR for unified cross-domain threat detection, and Microsoft Security Copilot for AI-accelerated investigation and response \u2014 delivering security operations capabilities that are fully integrated with your Microsoft 365 and Azure environment. For broader security operations beyond Microsoft \u2014 At-Defense managed SOC, Splunk, Elastic, Cribl, CrowdStrike, Check Point, Palo Alto \u2014 these platforms are delivered by our Swiss Expert Group partners e-Xpert Solutions and eb-Qual, who hold deep certified expertise including the ISO 27001 and ISAE 3000 certified At-Defense SOC.<\/p>\n

Microsoft Sentinel is a cloud-native Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) and Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) platform built on Azure. Unlike traditional on-premises SIEM solutions \u2014 which require significant hardware investment, manual tuning, and complex maintenance \u2014 Microsoft Sentinel scales automatically with your data volume, ingests signals from across the Microsoft ecosystem without additional connectors, uses Microsoft’s global threat intelligence for detection, and integrates natively with Microsoft Defender products for automated investigation and response. For Microsoft 365 and Azure environments, Sentinel is the natural SIEM choice \u2014 providing the deepest integration and the broadest coverage of Microsoft-specific attack techniques.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Q : What is XDR and how does Microsoft Defender XDR work?” open=”on” open_toggle_text_color=”#0C71C3″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” body_font_size=”1.1em” body_line_height=”1.4em” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” toggle_font_size=”1.2em” closed_toggle_font_size=”1.2em” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n

Extended Detection and Response (XDR) is a security approach that correlates threat signals across multiple security domains \u2014 endpoint, identity, email, cloud applications, and network \u2014 into a unified investigation experience. Microsoft Defender XDR automatically correlates alerts from Defender for Endpoint, Defender for Identity, Defender for Office 365, and Defender for Cloud Apps into incidents \u2014 showing the full attack chain across all affected assets, automated investigation results, and recommended response actions. This unified view enables security analysts to understand and respond to attacks that span multiple Microsoft products in a fraction of the time required with individual product consoles.<\/p>\n

Microsoft Security Copilot is a generative AI assistant for security operations \u2014 embedded in Microsoft Sentinel, Defender XDR, Entra ID, and Intune. It enables security analysts to investigate threats in natural language, summarise incidents for executive reporting, query Sentinel logs with plain-English questions, generate step-by-step remediation guidance, and produce incident reports automatically. Security Copilot does not replace human analysts \u2014 it accelerates them, reducing the time to triage and investigate incidents and making advanced capabilities accessible to analysts at all experience levels.<\/p>\n
