I give Microsoft Defender XDR a 9 because it helps us watch all the computers and users. When bad things happen, it tells us fast so we can fix it. Sometimes it gets too many alerts and it's hard to know what to do first. But mostly it works good and keeps our company safe from hackers and viruses. I tell my friends to try it.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

So in general, the idea of Defender XDR is to bring the security signals of the different areas together so that you have events on the client, on the user identity and this all needs to come together so that you have the full view so that you can easily see if there is an issue with the security configuration or if there is something actively going on. So I'm owning part of these applications in our company, so I'm responsible for everything, access control and all these things truly ensure that we have everything configured so that we get all the data we need to then run the analytics on it.

Pros

  • If you stay on the XDR endpoint management part, it collects really a lot of data from the endpoints. So it is not only a security tool, it is also helpful for operations. So if some user on the other half of the world has an issue, business machines, I do not necessarily rely anymore to have a connection to the client to find some log and audit things on the local machine because everything is in the cloud. I can do run the analytics right there to see really. But from user perspective really it's just an operational point of view. So he opened a website but was not able to access something, it was blocked by some firewall, all these things and so this is not only really security tool is really day-to-day tool use. Also by operations.

Cons

  • This is a general discussion we have in that best of suite approach so that sometimes even if deliver all Microsoft products and even if we live in the same console, we are not really talking to each other. So users and devices have different ID identities. So that means just because I see insecurity somewhere that there is an issue. I can in general, and it is a good point, create a task for the team that is doing client management, but it comes with totally the wrong identities because in the security world and the identity world and then the client management, the same device has three different identities. So the other team always need to do something, they need to have some conversion. That is of course bad. If these systems know each other, we should have a better understanding of the other part, the other product.

Likelihood to Recommend

Suit Really in everything, what is modern cloud work especially really if you work in a global company where your IT team is not always operational hour of the business users so that everything is really in the cloud can be managed from everywhere, but we do not access to local resources anymore. That's really a good point. What is always a little bit the pressure point is that general things in cloud things are moving fast so it's always difficult to keep the teams that is using these words up to date.
