Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Sentinel
We use Sentinel to add a layer of security. As a fintech company, we need to detect any suspicious activity and act swiftly. Sentinel helps identify and resolve security threats. In fact, as a Fintech, we need to ensure that there are many security points per industry standards, and Sentinel covers most of them.
Pros
- It detects any suspicious activity very well.
- They have internal MI models that are well-trained to analyze user behavior, such as if a user logs in from different locations multiple times within a short time interval.
- We can set automation rules, e.g., to detect a particular suspicious activity, we can define a set of protocols that it will follow automatically.
Cons
- It is very complex to integrate, and it took us three months to incorporate that, too. We first went live with partial services only.
- Understanding curve for new employee is difficult.
- Customizing the sensitivity of alerts is impossible (To the best of my knowledge). Hence, sometimes it gives false alerts.
- For us it covers most of mandatory security compliance, hence positive ROI.
- It overall increased efficiency of team.
- Finding knowledgeable resource on this tech is tough.
We have collaborated on AWS Digital Ocean Mongo DB Logstash.
It took time to integrate all.
It is an inbuilt AI that helps analyze and categorize threats better. However, as said earlier, sometimes it can raise false alarms. Hence, we need to keep customizing it.
We have a central dashboard where we can view all security incidents. There are lots of details available for each incident, like IP address, location, etc. Overall, once set up properly, it makes life easy to handle all such incidents.
Sentinel AI makes it a better choice. Also, its flexibility and customization make it a bit more costly than other competitors.
