Microsoft Sentinel
Build next-generation security operations powered by the cloud and AI.
Transforming Security Operations
Tens of thousands of customers trust Microsoft Sentinel to accelerate protection of their organizations with a simplified, scalable, and comprehensive approach. Over the last year, our engineering team has been hard at work delivering new innovations in several key areas, including:
- A comprehensive and unified security operations platform: The platform blends the best of SIEM, XDR, AI, Threat Intelligence, and extended posture management into a single experience offering end-to-end protection by consolidating various security operations tools into a single, coherent experience, powered by generative AI. In the unified security operations platform, features are unified across Microsoft Sentinel and Microsoft Defender XDR, with embedded Copilot for Security, to deliver more comprehensive protection, speeding up time to respond and reducing the workload on analysts.
- Robust out-of-the-box content: To effectively protect all clouds and platforms, Microsoft Sentinel offers pre-built content and solution packages that can be customized enabling detection, response, and defensive capabilities in the SOC. Over the last few months, we have enhanced our multicloud data collection (AWS and GCP), updated codeless connectors, expanded data coverage to more third-party sources, and extended protection to various critical business applications (SAP, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and Power Platform) among many more innovations.
- Splunk SIEM migration tool: We announced the general availability of the new SIEM Migration tool to simplify and accelerate SIEM migrations to Microsoft with automated assistance. Today, the experience supports conversion of Splunk detections to Microsoft Sentinel analytics rules with more capabilities coming in the months ahead.
- SOC efficiency: SOC optimization capability enables security teams to customize and manage their SIEM more efficiently for specific business and security requirements. With dynamic, research backed recommendations to optimize data usage, costs, and coverage against relevant threats, analysts can confidently identify opportunities to reduce costs, improve security posture, and see value more quickly.
Copilot for Security
Learn more- Copilot for Security: Copilot empowers security teams to make informed decisions in the SOC to protect at the speed and scale of AI. It offers skills to translate natural language to Kusto Query Language (KQL), accelerate incident investigation and response by automating manual tasks with customizable promptbooks, summarizes incidents with full context, helps prevent breaches with dynamic insights from Microsoft Threat Intelligence, and more.
- Enhanced incident experience: The new incidents page experience provides more context for SOC analysts to efficiently triage, investigate, and respond quickly to incidents. Many new investigation, response, and incident management features offer the analysts the information and tools necessary to understand the incident and full scope of the breach while making navigation easy and context switching less frequent. New features include top insights, a new activity log for incident audits, a Log Analytics query window to investigate logs and more.
