MDS - Modern Security Operations Engagement

Overview The Modern Security Operations (Modern SecOps) Engagement, formerly known as the Microsoft Sentinel Engagement, is a 2-day engagement workshop style designed to showcase how intelligent security analytics and threat intelligence can help organizations detect and quickly stop active threats and create customer intent for deploying and adopting Modern SecOps.

In addition, this engagement has been designed to help customers effectively leverage Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Sentinel for enhanced security operations, providing a comprehensive overview of the security features and capabilities within Microsoft 365, guiding customers through best practices for implementation and management. Participants gain hands-on experience with Microsoft Sentinel, learning how to set up, configure, and optimize this powerful security information and event management (SIEM) tool to detect, investigate, and respond to threats in real-time.
