This integration will help strengthen cyber threat detection and investigation. Customers will now be able to confirm events are detected, confirm that detection and prevention messages are properly forwarded to Azure Sentinel, test built-in and custom queries, and exercise the actions defined in Azure Sentinel Playbooks.
“Microsoft Azure Sentinel offers customers a robust platform for log aggregation, detection, and alerting while the AttackIQ platform enables customers to measure the performance of those capabilities and improve that performance over time,” said Eric Burkholder, senior program manager for Azure Sentinel.
Microsoft was also a founding member of AttackIQ’s Preactive Security Exchange (PSE), which is a program that helps security vendors validate the efficacy of their products.
