Strengthening Security Operations for a Leading Housing Provider

Key Activities Included:

Discovery & Objective Alignment

We began by conducting planning sessions to uncover the organisation’s top security concerns, ensuring the workshop would address their real-world needs.

Core Security Modules Delivered

All mandatory components of the Modern SecOps workshop were successfully covered:

• Microsoft Defender XDR / Unified SecOps Integration
  We demonstrated how Microsoft’s tools work together to provide unified incident visibility and correlation.
• Identity Threat Detection
  Focused on highlighting identity-based attack detection and investigation using Microsoft Entra ID and Defender for Identity.
• Communication & Collaboration Threat Detection
  Explored security risks across Microsoft 365 apps such as Exchange, SharePoint, and Teams.
• Azure Threat Detection
  Provided insight into threat activity within their Azure environment using Microsoft Sentinel’s analytics.
• Threat Intelligence
  Showed how built-in threat intelligence helps uncover and contextualise threats in real time.

Optional Module: SOC Automation

We explored the value of Sentinel playbooks to help the organisation standardise incident response and reduce human intervention during common alerts.

Real-World Demonstrations

By using available Microsoft licences and trials, we guided the customer through real-life threat scenarios to show how the tools can be applied in a live environment.
