Microsoft announced Monday that it’s getting into the managed security services business. The company’s Microsoft Security Experts program includes three new managed services.
Microsoft Defender Experts for Hunting is for its customers who have robust security operations centers but would like Microsoft to hunt for threats in data from endpoints, Office 365, cloud applications, and identity sources. Microsoft’s experts will hand off any actionable alerts they discover to security operations center (SOC) personnel, along with remediation recommendations. Microsoft experts are also available on-demand to answer security questions about anything from incidents to action by nation-state actors to updates on the latest attack vectors. The projected launch window for the service is in the summer of 2022.
