Microsoft Defender XDR provides a unified identity and access management platform. It does a good job with identity protection. Including identity and access management within Defender XDR is valuable because it streamlines our organization's security by consolidating multiple tools into one. This eliminates the need to manage and pay for separate solutions and licenses, simplifying our security posture. Microsoft Defender XDR has improved our visibility, making us more efficient by providing threat details and remediation steps as well as improving our security posture. It safeguards our organization by preventing advanced threats like ransomware and business email compromise, along with stopping lateral movement within our network that could enable attackers to spread and gain wider access. It includes the ability to stop attacks and adapt to evolving threats. This is an important feature for us. We have been enabled to discontinue using Microsoft Sentinel. Microsoft Defender XDR helps save costs through the licensing for businesses which is around $20 each and helps save time for our security team.
