Defender XDR Architecture

Most organisations have Defender licensed. Far fewer have it operationalised. Alert noise is high, investigation workflows aren't defined, and the products aren't talking to each other. This engagement changes that — integrating all four Defender workloads into a unified detection model that your team can actually work with.

The Defender XDR integration problem

Defender for Endpoint, Defender for Office 365, Defender for Identity, and Defender for Cloud Apps each generate signals independently. Without correlation configuration, integration with Entra ID, and alert tuning, you get noise rather than an investigation model. Defender XDR is the architecture that makes all four products generate a unified picture — but it requires deliberate design, not just enabling the features.

What this engagement covers

Defender for Endpoint — onboarding status, ASR rules, device configuration profiles, EDR configuration
Defender for Office 365 — anti-phishing, Safe Links, Safe Attachments, threat policies, email authentication
Defender for Identity — sensor deployment review, lateral movement detection, ITDR configuration
Defender for Cloud Apps — SaaS governance, OAuth app review, session policy design, anomaly detection
Cross-workload signal correlation — incident correlation rules, alert deduplication, investigation graph alignment
Alert tuning — suppression of known-good noise, prioritisation of high-fidelity detections
Attack surface reduction rule design and deployment with exclusion management
Phased deployment roadmap with checkpoints and rollback procedures
