Our Microsoft Defender for Endpoint Process
From initial assessment to ongoing management, our six-step process delivers properly configured, continuously monitored endpoint protection for businesses across Swansea, Cardiff and South Wales.
STEP 1 - Security Assessment and Customised Strategy
We start with a comprehensive security assessment of your environment – analysing your existing infrastructure, identifying vulnerabilities and reviewing your current tools. From there, we build a Microsoft Defender for Endpoint deployment plan tailored to your business, mapped against frameworks like Cyber Essentials where relevant.
STEP 2 - Microsoft Defender for Endpoint Deployment and Configuration
Our team deploys Microsoft Defender for Endpoint across your devices and servers, configuring advanced features including behavioural monitoring, automated investigation and endpoint detection and response (EDR). We integrate seamlessly with your existing Microsoft 365 environment to ensure protection without disrupting your operations.
STEP 3 - Real-Time Monitoring and Threat Detection
Once deployed, our SOC team continuously monitors your environment for threats, anomalies and suspicious activity. Alerts from Microsoft Defender for Endpoint are correlated with our RocketCyber SOC platform in real time, so genuine threats are identified fast and false positives don’t waste your time.
STEP 4 - Automated Investigation and Response
Microsoft Defender for Endpoint’s AI-driven capabilities automatically investigate and resolve low-level threats, freeing our analysts to focus on incidents that genuinely need human expertise. Higher-severity threats are escalated immediately to our team for hands-on response.
STEP 5 - Threat Mitigation, Reporting, and Insights
When an incident is handled, you receive a clear, jargon-free report covering what happened, how it was contained and what we recommend next. Regular insights help you understand your threat landscape, track your security posture and demonstrate compliance to stakeholders.
STEP 6 - Ongoing Security Optimization and Support
Cyber threats evolve constantly, so your defences must too. We review and tune your Microsoft Defender for Endpoint configuration regularly, apply policy updates as the threat landscape changes, and provide UK-based support whenever you need us – from our team in Swansea, not an overseas helpdesk.
