Considering Microsoft Sentinel for SIEM?

White Paper

Think it’s the affordable option? Think again.

Many organizations choose Microsoft Sentinel assuming it offers seamless integration and predictable pricing. But this white paper uncovers what’s really under the hood—and why Sentinel often fails to deliver on its SIEM promises.

Microsoft Sentinel’s limitations come at a high cost.

Manual processes, limited visibility, expensive add-ons, and unpredictable pricing structures can lead to operational inefficiencies, security gaps, and skyrocketing TCO. This paper breaks down why Sentinel falls short for threat detection, investigation, and response (TDIR), especially in multi-vendor environments.

What’s inside:

1. Cost clarity: See how Microsoft’s “pay-as-you-ingest” model hides costs in storage, integrations, and automation tools.
2. Visibility and control: Learn why Sentinel’s limited integrations and custom rule requirements hinder threat detection.
3. Advanced TDIR, reimagined: Discover how the New-Scale Security Operations Platform outpaces legacy SIEMs with integrated UEBA, SOAR, and AI-driven analytics—without the surprise costs.

If you’re using or considering Microsoft Sentinel, this white paper is a must-read. It reveals real-world tradeoffs and gives you a modern alternative built by cybersecurity professionals, for cybersecurity professionals.
