Seamless integration and advanced threat intelligence with good data management
The most valuable feature is the seamless integration with Google services such as VirusTotal, Mandient, and DUO AI, all of which are part of Google Chronicle. The dashboards are clean and clearly written, making it easy to use and understand. Also, its AI capabilities and advanced threat intelligence tools like natural language search, AI threat summaries, and automated threat authoring are key benefits.

An automated solution that helped me detect threats in less than half the time it used to take
Sentinel gave us logs to tell us what's going right and wrong in your environment so we could secure the network. We also got multiple kinds of logs. By running some queries from the logs, we could find and fix the anomalies in the environment. Sentinel's threat visibility was great at telling us if we had something going on in our environment. We had to set up alerts in our environment based on the logs. If we had the right alerts set up, we got notified about threats and where security was lacking, so we could also take care of that. Sentinel's threat intelligence helped us prepare and take proactive steps for potential threats before they hit. Having preparation before a threat has helped our security operations. When I was using it, I used to keep going into my dashboards and looking for any threats on a weekly basis, or maybe two or three times a week. Based on that, we would recommend certain changes to the server and infrastructure teams to block or allow some ports. Sentinel's threat intelligence helped plan security against risks.
