Is Your Organization Equipped with Proactive Cyber Threat Protection?

Cyberattacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated, and organizations can no longer afford to rely on outdated alert systems. Modern threats require more than just firewalls; they demand real-time detection and coordinated responses. With numerous overlapping tools and security signals, IT and security teams often struggle to identify and mitigate advanced threats before they cause significant damage.

This is where Microsoft Defender XDR steps in. If you're not utilizing the full suite - Defender for Office, Endpoint, Identity, and Cloud applications - you might be missing crucial signals. You can take advantage of Microsoft funded Engagements, for eligible organizations, to help your team take proactive measures to strengthen protection, starting with the resources you already have.

Why is Real-Time Threat Detection Important for Cybersecurity?

Real-time threat detection is essential for preventing damage before it happens by identifying and addressing attacks as they occur. The quicker a threat is detected, the less opportunity hackers have for exploiting vulnerabilities. Real-time threat detection continuously analyzes networks, endpoints, and resources for signs of compromise. This offers valuable insights into vulnerabilities and emerging threats, enhancing the security posture of organizations.

By understanding the nature of cyber threats and leveraging tools like Microsoft Defender XDR, organizations can establish a more robust defense system. The integration of these tools simplifies threat management, while empowering security teams with actionable insights, enabling them to stay ahead of attackers. This proactive approach ensures that vulnerabilities are addressed in real time, strengthening resilience against modern threats.

What Tools Help Detect Advanced Cyber Threats?

Microsoft Defender XDR tools offer unified, real-time protection across an organization’s digital environment. With integrated security products covering endpoints, identities, email, data, cloud resources and more into a single platform, Defender XDR provides comprehensive threat detection, investigation, and automated response.

• Defender for Office provides protection against attacks with features including safe links, safe attachments, phishing and malware.
• Defender for Endpoint offers comprehensive protection for devices such as laptops, servers, and phones against potential threats.
• Defender for Identity monitors user activity to identify suspicious behaviour and safeguard identities effectively.
• Defender for Cloud Apps provides robust security for SaaS cloud applications, ensuring app-to-app protection for cloud data.
• Defender for Vulnerability Management offers comprehensive features to identify, assess, and remediate vulnerabilities across critical assets.

Despite the enterprise-grade threat detection capabilities of Microsoft Defender XDR tools, many organizations fail to leverage their full potential.

How Can Organizations Improve Security with Microsoft Defender XDR?

Microsoft Defender provides access to key benefits that strengthen your organization’s security resilience by:

• Centralizing threat detection and response with unified visibility.
• Automating incident response to reduce manual effort and response time.
• Enhancing endpoint protection with endpoint detection and response.
• Securing cloud workload through app protection and Defender for Cloud infrastructure.

Integrating these capabilities enables Microsoft Defender XDR to help security teams stay ahead of evolving threats and reinforce their overall security posture. However, fully configuring the Defender XDR security toolsets to maximize protection can be complex and requires careful planning and expertise, which is where a workshop can help.

What is Microsoft’s Threat Protection Workshop?

To combat the increasing threat of cyberattacks, organizations require comprehensive and scalable protection. If your organization qualifies for Microsoft funding, Long View’s security experts assist you in identifying security gaps, configuring solutions, and taking immediate action at no cost.

What does the Threat Protection Workshop Include?

• Assessment of Security Needs: Evaluate current threat protection, identify gaps, set objectives to maximize Defender’s impact.
• Solution Configuration & Deployment: Deploy and configure specific Microsoft Defender XDR for full visibility and control.
• Real-Time Threat Monitoring: Enable live threat monitoring to track and mitigate incidents.
• Security Threat Analysis: Analyze threat data to uncover vulnerabilities and optimize defenses.
• Strategic Recommendations & Next Steps: Receive a report with insights and next steps for continued threat protection improvements.

Build a Stronger Defense with Modern Threat Detection

Threat detection is a critical line of defense, but many organizations lack the visibility or resources to make it effective. This Threat Protection Workshop led by Long View, offers a no-cost, Microsoft-funded opportunity to take the first step toward a proactive security posture.

Don’t wait for the next alert to realize you’re unprepared. Check if you qualify for a Microsoft-funded Threat Protection Workshop with us to evaluate your environment and protect what matters most.
