Solution Brief: 24x7 Security monitoring

The Situation

You know that cyber threats don’t stop outside office hours — but your visibility probably does. You may have monitoring in place for Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, but critical infrastructure often sits outside that coverage. External servers, hosted environments, AI platforms, and other systems still generate alerts and logs, but no one’s analysing them in real time.

Maybe your IT provider handles basic notifications, or maybe someone checks dashboards when there’s time. But without continuous analysis, unusual activity can go unnoticed until it’s too late.

You need eyes on every part of your environment, 24x7x365, backed by people who know what to look for, how to interpret it, and how to respond.

What's Important?

Modern threats move quickly and often go unnoticed without dedicated monitoring and detection engineering. Continuous analysis of logs, events, and telemetry helps identify abnormal behaviour before it becomes a serious incident.

But maintaining that level of vigilance and tuning detection rules and automations to your specific environment takes time and expertise that many busy IT and security teams simply don’t have.

24/7 monitoring fills that gap. A managed Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) platform, supported by a skilled Security Operations Centre (SOC), ensures every alert is analysed, refined, and actioned. Detections and automations stay tuned to your environment, keeping pace with new threats and the systems you rely on.

Questions to consider

Does your monitoring cover users, devices, and infrastructure outside Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace?
Who reviews and investigates security alerts — and how quickly? Do you have clear escalation and response procedures?
Are your analytics and automations regularly refined and tuned to reduce false positives and keep up with infrastructure and environment changes?
Do you own your existing SIEM instance, if you have one?
Would you know if something unusual was happening right now?

How we can help

Our managed detection and response service combines the power of Microsoft Sentinel with around-the-clock human expertise. We deploy and configure a dedicated Sentinel instance in your tenant, ensuring that the system — and the investment — remain under your control. This gives you full transparency and ownership, while we handle day-to-day monitoring, tuning, and improvement.

Our SOC analysts and detection engineers go beyond reactive alerting. Through structured, sprint-based detection engineering cycles, we refine analytics, enhance automation, and align detections to your evolving environment and threat landscape. This ensures continuous improvement and measurable uplift in detection coverage over time.

Whether your infrastructure is fully cloud-based or spread across hybrid and external systems, we keep watch and provide assurance that your environment is being monitored, understood, and protected 24/7.
