Microsoft Security consultants and technical specialists

Microsoft Sentinel consultants connect security telemetry and develop detections for threats your current rules miss. They assess ingestion coverage and costs before recommending connector changes or additional data collection.

Detection engineers write KQL analytics rules and investigation queries, tune incident grouping, and configure Azure Logic Apps playbooks for approved response actions. For ongoing SOC support, they investigate incidents and maintain detection content as systems change. Existing SIEM transitions can include rule mapping and validation against representative events before production cutover.

Microsoft Defender specialists assess protection coverage and resolve configuration gaps across endpoints and cloud workloads. They can take responsibility for policy maintenance and support investigations alongside your security team.

• Defender XDR: Configure Defender for Endpoint and Defender for Office 365 policies, investigate correlated incidents, and tune exclusions with documented security trade-offs.
• Defender for Cloud: Review security posture recommendations and workload protection settings. Prioritize remediation with infrastructure owners and validate changes against application requirements.

Entra ID consultants review access policies and privileged permissions when authentication failures or excessive access create operational risk. Assessments identify dependencies before changes affect users or applications.

• Authentication and application access: Configure Conditional Access and multifactor authentication. Troubleshoot single sign-on using SAML or OpenID Connect, with report-only testing before enforcement.
• Privileged access and governance: Configure Privileged Identity Management and access reviews. Review role assignments and joiner-mover-leaver workflows, with documented emergency access procedures and recovery checks.

Microsoft Purview consultants turn data-handling requirements into controls that employees can use. They review sensitive information types and test policy matches against representative content before enforcement.

Information Protection specialists configure sensitivity labels and encryption policies. Data Loss Prevention specialists tune rules across Microsoft 365 and supported endpoints, investigating false positives and policy conflicts. Compliance specialists configure retention policies and eDiscovery workflows with your legal or compliance owners. Support can include policy maintenance and troubleshooting when controls interrupt legitimate sharing or document access.
