As the role of technology in business continues to expand, the tools and systems used to streamline enterprise management also bring new and increasingly sophisticated cyber threats. These challenges put companies at risk, as cybercriminals exploit weaknesses in even the most modern security frameworks.
Despite using firewalls, antivirus software, and multi-factor authentication, many businesses find that malware, viruses, and other cyber threats can still penetrate their defenses. Part of the challenge is that each security measure often operates independently, making it difficult to detect the source of an attack and respond effectively.
The solution? A comprehensive, centralized security platform like Microsoft Sentinel, overseen by a trusted managed service provider like VirtuWorks, specializing in business IT support and cybersecurity. VirtuWorks provides an expertly managed SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) solution that offers proactive, customized protection.
Microsoft Sentinel is a powerful, scalable security information and event management (SIEM) solution designed to detect and counter threats across your business’s digital infrastructure. Acting as an intelligent, proactive attack detection system, Microsoft Sentinel gathers data across all connected sources to quickly identify threats, making them instantly visible and triggering the appropriate response.
Once deployed, Sentinel strengthens your existing security framework by analyzing signals and alert data generated by various security tools, applying AI-driven intelligence to identify risks. VirtuWorks enhances this capability by managing Microsoft Sentinel with skilled, real-time oversight, allowing your business to benefit from Sentinel’s rapid, intelligent detection and response capabilities.
Microsoft Sentinel represents the culmination of Microsoft’s decades of experience in digital security, using a Four-Step Process to deliver comprehensive threat protection:
VirtuWorks enhances this process by ensuring Sentinel is configured and monitored to its fullest capacity, turning your cybersecurity measures into a cohesive defense system.
VirtuWorks makes it easy to integrate Microsoft Sentinel into your business’s security strategy. During onboarding, our IT support team sets up custom connectors that integrate your existing security assets—whether they are Microsoft-based or from third-party vendors. Once all data sources are successfully connected, VirtuWorks specialists configure Azure Monitor Workbooks, providing valuable insights into the performance and security status of each component.
Microsoft Sentinel Analytics allows VirtuWorks to detect complex threats by aggregating signals and alerts that, on their own, may seem minor but together indicate a broader security issue. This multi-layered approach lets us identify and respond to security events across your organization, providing a more comprehensive view of potential threats.
While Microsoft Sentinel offers advanced capabilities for monitoring and detecting threats, VirtuWorks adds essential human oversight, enhancing the platform’s effectiveness. Our cybersecurity specialists use Sentinel’s insights to monitor potential issues, investigate incidents, and respond promptly to keep your business safe. With VirtuWorks as your managed service provider, you receive full-service IT support, with Microsoft 365 integration, advanced cybersecurity, and scalable solutions managed by a team of U.S.-based IT professionals.
