Frequently Asked Questions

What is Microsoft Sentinel and why should my organization use it?
Microsoft Sentinel is a cloud native SIEM and SOAR platform that unifies security data across users, devices, applications, and infrastructure, then applies analytics and automation to detect, investigate, and respond to threats faster. It delivers enterprise visibility, AI assisted correlation, and automated playbooks that help reduce risk and improve resilience.
What does MSP Corp provide for Microsoft Sentinel?
MSP Corp delivers two service tracks. First, deployment services that cover architecture design, connector onboarding, analytic rules, alert tuning, dashboards, and automation runbooks. Second, managed Sentinel services that include ongoing monitoring, continuous rule optimization, threat hunting, incident response support, and executive reporting aligned to business goals.
Which data sources can Sentinel ingest and does it work with on premises systems?
Sentinel consolidates telemetry from Microsoft clouds and third party tools, including identity, endpoint, email, network, firewalls, and servers. It supports both cloud and on premises environments so you can correlate events across your entire estate in one place.
How does Sentinel’s automation help my security team day to day?
SOAR capabilities use playbooks to triage alerts, enrich incidents, apply response actions such as isolating endpoints or disabling accounts, and route tasks to the right owners. This reduces analyst toil, shortens mean time to detect and respond, and standardizes your incident handling process.
What does a typical Sentinel deployment with MSP Corp look like?
Engagements usually follow five practical steps: discovery and readiness assessment, target architecture and data mapping, secure deployment with connector onboarding, rules and automation tuning with use case validation, then knowledge transfer and an operational runbook for your team or ours to manage going forward. This sequence limits disruption while establishing quick wins.
How do managed Sentinel services split responsibilities between MSP Corp and our team?
MSP Corp handles platform care, log source onboarding, analytics and playbook maintenance, continuous monitoring, incident triage, and recommendations for remediation. Your team retains governance decisions, privileged changes in production systems, and acceptance of risk, with joint reviews to refine detections and response workflows.
Can Sentinel support compliance and audit reporting?
Yes. Centralized logging, retention policies, and curated workbooks help demonstrate control effectiveness and provide auditor friendly evidence. MSP Corp aligns reporting to your frameworks and produces regular summaries that map detections and incidents to policy and regulatory requirements.
How is Sentinel different from traditional SIEM tools?
Sentinel is built on Azure so it scales elastically, ingests data at cloud pace, and uses Microsoft security analytics and threat intelligence to improve signal quality. Native SOAR, broad data connectors, and rapid content updates reduce the time and effort required to achieve value compared to legacy on premises SIEMs.
What business outcomes should we expect in the first phase?
Early outcomes typically include unified visibility across identities, endpoints, email, network, and cloud resources, reduced alert noise through tuning, high confidence detections for your top risks, and an agreed incident workflow that accelerates containment and recovery. Executive dashboards translate activity into risk and ROI insights.
How do we get started with Microsoft Sentinel through MSP Corp?
Start with a consultation to confirm scope and priority use cases, then proceed to a structured deployment or a managed onboarding. You can request a quote or talk to an expert to begin planning your security first Sentinel adoption.
