What do you like best about Microsoft Sentinel?

The MS Sentinel is one of the leading cloud SIEM solution provider. The ease of integration with any 3rd party software solution and native support for all microsoft suite products is what makes it a SIEM leader in Gartner Magic quadrant. The one click deployment of MMA agents to your azure hosted VMs and on-prem workloads (using azure arc) makes it really scalable and easy to manage. The out of the box integration with almost all type of applications are an added advantage. The extensive library of detection/automation rules prepared by Microsoft security research team and community supported content makes it a very rich SIEM product in the market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Microsoft Sentinel?

Currently the feature of ingesting logs from private resources is bit complicated and expensive. Microsoft needs to come up with an connectivity model for Sentinel which enables organisations to ingest logs over private communication channel easily instead of leveraging public log analytics API. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Microsoft Sentinel solving and how is that benefiting you?

The requirement of Security information and event management is paramount for any tyoe of organisation who wants to run business security in the era of hybrid deployment architectures. MS Sentinel fits perfectly in such situation where your computing resources are spread across on-prem and cloud workloads. The ease of deploying the monitoring agents and integrating public/private SaaS solutions are super easy with the help of MS sentinel's content management interface. The rich library of out of the box integrations and detection logics reduces the workload on your SOC engineering team. The simple to use KQL query language helps to investigate your ingested logs into the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Microsoft Defender for Office 365?

Defender is absolutely sufficient. In fact for a small business having as many systems in a single platform that your staff is comfortable supporting is far more important than having the bleeding edge anti-virus/anti-malware/whatever in disparate systems that a small team will struggle to operationalise. That kind of thing is much more important when it comes to ISO27001. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Microsoft Defender for Office 365?

From the sound of it, you prob haven't configure and onboard your endpoints to take advantage of licensed defender features. Go look that up and setup the necessary policies in Defender portal amd intune portal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Microsoft Defender for Office 365 solving and how is that benefiting you?

it covers that requirement and is thoroughly sufficient as others pointed out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Microsoft Defender for Cloud?

Microsoft Defender is very useful in terms of application, network, and email security. I am using it in my company to protect our applications and email from threat and phishing attacks. Its dashboard will show us the issue in our infrastructure, so from one point, you can see the issue related to the security in your infra. You can make policies to protect your application and assets from security risks.

It has a connector feature that will give you the strength to connect it with other applications as well. The integration is easy as you only need to make connectors and the application will integrate with this.

You can reach out to the support of Microsoft for any issues, and they will resolve them ASAP. You can go for paid support as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Microsoft Defender for Cloud?

In email protection, I have seen that they are facing difficulty to detect zero-day attacks and the Malware that are hidden is difficult to detect by defender. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Microsoft Defender for Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

Microsoft Defender for Cloud is helping us to detect and remove malicious things from our infrastructure. In the dashboard, you can see the SAAS applications that are healthy and that need attention, your compliance score, and your data from different apps that need attention. It will show the risky users of your environment and then you can take action accordingly. It will show the active malware in your environment as many more things in terms of security.

What do you like best about Microsoft Defender for Cloud?

First of all, we are using Defender in our company for email threat protection. We have made inbound and outbound policies for email filtering and Defender is doing a fabulous job on this. It protects us against fraud emails, Phishing attacks, and any suspicious links or documents shared by our internal users to external or external to internal or internal to internal as well. It has a whitelist feature that we can use to whitelist our trusted vendors and users.

It is very easy to set up and use. Its integration with other cloud platforms like Mimecast is also very easy, you just need to make a connector and it will accept that feature. For any query, you can contact support with just a few clicks and they are very supportive of this. You can create multiple policies on this for your environment, you can protect your cloud applications from threats and a lot more features are there that benefit a lot to my environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Microsoft Defender for Cloud?

Sometimes it does not accurately track the threat, I have seen it has released some suspicious emails and has not shown a security risk, but it is very low, I will say its SLA is more than 99% but yes, sometimes it fails to meet our expectations.

The support team of 1st level, if you are not going for paid subscription, then they will not provide their best engineers to handle your request. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Microsoft Defender for Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is benefitting us to secure our infrastructure like Network, Applications and email security. It helps us to define policies at one place and then we can manage all policies from one central point. For application security, it shows the security risk associated with the applications. Their security feature will show you the risk associated with the application and users as well. It controls the email flow from inside to outside and inbound emails as well.
