Managed Security & SOC

Alerts are handled, incidents contained within agreed response times, and every month you receive evidence per control. We operate Defender XDR, Microsoft Sentinel, Entra ID and Intune in your own tenant.

Example of a monthly evidence report: MFA for all accounts, privileged roles and device compliance are evidenced, incidents are documented, monitoring is active.

Sound familiar?

Small IT team, no time for alerts

50 employees or more, but nobody reviews the security alerts.

Auditors and insurers want proof

NIS2, ISO 27001 or your insurer ask for documented proof.

“All fine”, says your provider

They cannot document it, and nobody knows what happens at night.

Signal chain

How does a signal become evidence?

Secure Base operates the protection in your licences. Detection & Response adds Sentinel and round-the-clock monitoring. Switch tiers to see what is added.

  5. 5 Evidence

    Monthly report per control

Signal chain in five steps. Secure Base: sources Entra ID, devices and email, detection with Defender XDR, triage by WCS with defined response times, response in your tenant by disabling accounts and isolating devices, monthly report per control. Detection & Response adds Azure and other sources, Sentinel with analytics rules, round-the-clock triage and automated playbooks.

An example from operations

What happens during an incident at 02:14?

A typical case in the Detection & Response tier, step by step. The time is an example; the response time is the one in your contract.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between managed security and a SOC?

A SOC (security operations centre) monitors alerts and responds to incidents. Managed security also operates the protection itself; with us, the SOC is the Detection & Response tier.

Do I need Microsoft Sentinel or is Defender XDR enough?

Defender XDR keeps data available for hunting for 30 days by default. You need Sentinel for longer retention, further sources such as Azure, or your own rules and playbooks.

How much does managed security for Microsoft 365 cost for a mid-sized company?

Secure Start costs from €2,500 per month, Secure Base from €3,500 per month and Detection & Response from €5,500 per month, depending on users, devices and data volume. Licences and Azure consumption come on top. After the Security Assessment you receive a proposal with a clearly defined scope.

What happens if a security incident occurs at night or at the weekend?

In the Detection & Response tier, monitoring runs around the clock, including public holidays. Triage and containment follow contractually defined response times.
