Modernize your Security Operations Center (SOC) with an Intelligent SIEM + SOAR solution

While hackers are constantly innovating to become more evasive and damaging, cybersecurity can’t afford to stand still. With the increasing number of new devices, cloud databases, applications, hybrid infra models, global workforce and complex IT infrastructures, enterprises are finding it hard to manage security flows and thereby automate them. It is of paramount importance to re-engineer the Security Operations Center (SOC).

Traditional Security Information and Events Management (SIEM) tools have issues such as high-upfront cost and upkeep, skills shortages, limited support, complex pricing, compromised data collection, high false positives with less actionable alerts. (Security Orchestration Automated and Response) SOAR solutions can help your IT security team improve and speed its incident response—a key component to modern cybersecurity. SOAR allows businesses to aggregate and analyze security events and information from diverse sources including SIEM. Using this data, SOAR can effectively automate security investigations, threat hunting, and remediation.

More than 77% of the organizations are deprived of a proper response to cyber-attacks

Data breaches cost enterprises an average of $4.45 millio

The average lifecycle of a breach is 277 days, from identification to containment

    Azure Sentinel analyses large volumes of data from users, applications, servers, and devices running on-premise or in the cloud.

    Sentinel is integrated with Microsoft services like Azure Security Center, Azure Active Directory, and Microsoft 365 including other third party connectors.

  • What are the features of Azure Sentinel?

    -

    As a cloud-native SIEM, Azure Sentinel delivers a hawk-eye perspective on the entire security operations of your enterprise with AI-enabled threat detection and mitigation tools. The Key features of Azure Sentinel are provided below.

    1. Built-in alert rules and ability to customize rules as per your enterprise needs with custom alert wizard.
    2. Machine learning capabilities that identify suspicious logins across Microsoft identity services to discover malicious SSH accesses.
    3. Predictable and flexible billing models with options for pay-as-you-go pricing
    4. Graphical interfaces, that allow users to visualize and traverse the connections between entities like users, assets, applications, or URLs and swiftly understand the scope and impact of any security incident based on suspicious activities like logins, data transfers, or application usage etc.
    5. Incident automation and remediation is simplified due to the innovative actions, playbooks available in Azure Logic Apps.
  • What is the pricing of Azure Sentinel?

    -

    Azure Sentinel is available for enterprises at a flexible pricing model with an option for Capacity Reservations and Pay-As-You-Go model. The pricing is calculated as per the data (in GBs) ingested for analysis in Azure Sentinel and stored in the Azure Monitor Log Analytics workspace. The Capacity reservations model allows your enterprise to save up to 60% through opting for a tiered structure of pricing on every 100 GB capacity reserved for analysis. The Pay-as-you-go model provides the option of payment per GB ingested for analysis in Azure Sentinel. You can reach out to our Azure experts for more info on pricing as per your enterprise requirement.

  • We have an On-premise SIEM. Do we still need Azure Sentinel?

    -

    SIEM deployment and management can increase an organization’s efficiency and efficacy through meaningful data collection and security alerts that can be responded to while security efforts remain effective. Once a SIEM is deployed, further development of automated metrics and reporting of event analysis using decision-bot reasoning can follow. However to reduce alert fatigue and proactively respond to threats, Security Orchestration, Automation and Response (SOAR) capabilities that are brought in by Azure Sentinel is necessary. Azure Sentinel can integrate with all the tools, systems and applications within an organization’s toolset and can facilitate automated incident response workflows. It allows analysts to research, assess and perform additional relevant investigations and accommodates incident response workflows to deliver fast results and facilitate adaptive defenses. Azure Sentinel includes multiple playbooks in response to specific threats to be fully or partially automated, depending on SecOps preferences.
