Simplified Zero Trust security with the Microsoft Entra Suite and unified security operations platform
If you're interested in unified, zero trust security, then Microsoft has some more good news for you. In July, Microsoft announced the general availability of the Microsoft secure access solution Entra Suite and Microsoft's cloud-native security information and event management platform, Sentinel. This article explains the benefits of these two solutions and why a zero-trust approach to security is essential.
What is the Microsoft Entra Suite?
The Microsoft Entra Suite is a comprehensive solution designed to simplify the implementation of a Zero Trust security model. It unifies identity and network access security, allowing organizations to manage access controls for both identities and networks through a single portal. This integration helps prevent security breaches by ensuring that users have the least privilege access necessary for their roles, thereby reducing the risk of lateral movement by cyber attackers.
How does Microsoft Sentinel enhance security operations?
Microsoft Sentinel is integrated into the unified security operations platform, providing a centralized workspace for security teams. It enhances threat detection and response by unifying security signals, allowing for faster incident correlation and investigation. With features like automated attack disruption and improved threat hunting capabilities, organizations can respond to cyber threats more efficiently, reducing the time it takes to address incidents.
Why is a Zero Trust strategy important?
A Zero Trust strategy is crucial because it addresses the growing sophistication of cyber threats, particularly those targeting identity credentials. With 66% of digital attack paths involving insecure identities, implementing a Zero Trust approach helps organizations continuously verify access requests, enforce least privilege access, and monitor for potential breaches. This proactive stance is vital for safeguarding sensitive data and maintaining a secure operational environment.
