4 bots. Triage, hunt, respond, baseline. No alert fatigue.
Alerts don't scale. Attention doesn't scale. These bots do.
People alone can't solve this. The maths doesn't work.
24/7 SOC staffing. Before tool sprawl, turnover, and burnout.
Humans triage a fraction. The rest? Ignored.
Average attacker dwell time. The tools were screaming the whole time.
“The frustrating part is not buying the tools. It is realising the hard part starts after the alert fires.”
That's the gapFour bots. Each runs a core SOC function autonomously.
Cross-product triage, correlation, and auto-containment across Defender XDR.
Rule health, log source inventory, coverage gaps, and proactive threat hunts.
Automated response playbooks. Phishing, malware, brute force, compromise. Handled.
Builds baselines. Detects anomalies. Catches what signatures miss.
| Capability | Typical MDR Provider | SOC Ops Squad |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly cost | $5,000–$15,000/mo | From $1,500/mo |
| Data residency | Their cloud | Your hardware |
| Alert triage | Shared analysts | Dedicated bots, every alert assessed |
| Cross-product correlation | Usually partial | MDE + MDO + MDI + MDA unified |
| Threat hunting | Periodic | Continuous, automated |
| Insider-risk detection | Often excluded | Full UEBA capability |
| Evidence | Request-based | Always-on output |
| Response actions | Notify you | Auto-contain then notify |
Quick look at your M365/Sentinel setup and where the gaps are.
Apps registered. Systems connected. Bots installed. Done.
Baselines, SIEM review, and triage go live in days.
Continuous ops. Reports, escalations, and response — built in.
Detection + response meets prevention + compliance. The full picture.
Essential Eight controls, hardening, identity, app control, patching, and backup verification.
XDR, SIEM, SOAR, and UEBA working together as a focused AI cyber squad for operations.
Not an MDR pitch. 15 minutes to see if this fits.
