Sentinel deployment with the data connectors that matter, analytic rules tuned for your environment, and a cost ceiling you actually control. No 30-day ingestion runaway. No workbooks built for demos.
MITRE ATT&CK + custom detections
Analytics / Basic / Archive routing
Logic Apps + Sentinel Notebooks
4-6 weeks for tuned baseline
If two of these sound familiar, this service is scoped for you. If none of them do, the discovery call is short and we will tell you which service actually fits.
Sentinel ingestion costs spiraling with no clear ROI per source — last month's bill was 3x forecast.
Out-of-the-box detections that overwhelm a small IT team or miss the actual threat model.
Workbooks built for vendor demos, not for the SOC analyst opening them at 02:00.
No hand-waving. If it is on this list, it is in scope from day one. If it is not, it lives in the out-of-scope section further down or is a separate engagement we will tell you about up front.
Three phases. Named owners per phase. Documented hand-offs. You always know which week of the engagement you are in.
Workspace strategy. Connector inventory with cost-value scoring (target ingestion budget). Threat-model workshop with security stakeholders. Output: prioritized connector + rule backlog.
Workspace deployment, prioritized connectors, 50+ tuned analytics rules with MITRE mapping, top-5 automation playbooks, daily-cap alerts. False-positive baselining over 2-week observation period.
Every tier ships the same technical depth — the difference is whether we hand the keys back, keep them, or build you a sovereign exit kit. Final scope and fee are quoted after a short discovery call. No hourly billing.
Greenfield Sentinel deployments needing a tuned baseline that does not produce a runaway ingestion bill.
We do not resell from a price-comparison engine. Every vendor in this service has a direct partner relationship with us — meaning support tickets escalate, license terms are honoured, and the margin stays inside the same vendor list price you would pay direct.
Honest exclusions are how we keep delivery fast. If something you need is in the out-of-scope column, we will tell you which service or partner picks it up.
REF.ENG_MATRIX // STANDARD_BOUNDARIES_APPLY
Per-connector cost-value scoring, archive-tier routing for low-fidelity sources, daily-cap alerts, and a documented budget guardrail. We do not ingest data we cannot justify against a specific detection.
Sentinel wins for Microsoft-heavy estates (E5 license advantages + native MDE/MDI/MDO ingestion). Splunk wins for very high-volume bespoke ingestion. Chronicle wins for Google-heavy estates. We pick based on data gravity, not vendor brochures.
Yes. We design Sentinel to be operable by an external SOC / MDR partner — runbooks, rule documentation, and escalation matrix are part of the handover.
30-minute discovery call. We tell you whether this service fits, what the scope looks like, and what the next 4 weeks would deliver. No high-pressure pitch.
