When does monitoring make sense?
Problems we help solve
Alerts without a response process quickly become noise. Therefore, security monitoring should have specific data sources, priorities, escalation thresholds and people responsible for event analysis.
- The logs are available, but no one analyzes them regularly.
- It is not known which alerts require urgent response and which require observation.
- The company wants to detect unusual logins, scans, or permission changes.
- After the incident, there is no data to reconstruct the course of events.
- Administrators need a clear way to escalate threats.
Fit
Who is this service for?
Companies with Microsoft 365
We monitor logins, accounts, email rules, alerts and unusual user activities.
Companies with servers
We collect signals from Windows, Linux systems, directory services and applications.
Companies after the audit
We implement monitoring as the next step after detecting risks and control gaps.
Companies without SOC
We help you build a practical surveillance and response model without a large security department.
Service scope
What does security monitoring cover?
Data sources
We determine where it is worth collecting logs and events.
- Microsoft 365 and Entra ID,
- servers and workstations,
- firewall, VPN and security systems.
Rules and alerts
We configure notifications for events important to the company.
- unusual logins,
- changes in permissions,
- suspicious processes and errors.
Event analysis
We help you classify alerts and separate incidents from noise.
- preliminary risk assessment,
- event correlation,
- recommendation of actions.
Escalation
We determine who and how responds to the detected problem.
- alert priorities,
- contact and responsibility,
- reaction procedures.
Outcomes
What will you receive?
- selected log and alert sources tailored to the environment,
- clear event priorities and escalation method,
- less risk that an important signal will be missed,
- data useful for incident analysis or audit,
- documentation of rules, data sources and responsibilities.
Monitoring may cover a specific area, for example Microsoft 365, or a broader environment of servers, endpoints and networks.
Delivery approach
How is the service delivered?
- Scope. We establish systems, risks and expected response.
- Sources. We select logs, alerts and technical data to monitor.
- Configuration. We set rules, integrations and notifications.
- Calibration. We limit the excess of alerts and adjust the thresholds.
- Reaction. We define people, priorities and escalation method.
- Documentation. We provide a description of sources, rules and procedures.
Delivery standards
How do we maintain monitoring?
- We do not collect logs without a plan as to who will analyse them.
- We divide alerts into priorities so that important events do not get lost in the noise.
- We update the rules following changes in the environment and new incidents.
- We document exceptions and sources that are not yet monitored.
- We combine monitoring with response procedures, backup and access control.
Cost
What determines the price?
The price depends on the number of log sources, systems, users, monitoring tools, data retention, number of rules, expected response time and form of reporting.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does monitoring replace the administrator?
No. Monitoring gives signals, but an analysis process and a person responsible for the decision and reaction are needed.
Can only Microsoft 365 be monitored?
Yes. This is a good starting point, especially if your company uses email, Teams, OneDrive and Entra ID.
Will alerts come in all the time?
There may be more of them at first. Therefore, calibration of rules and priorities is important.
Do you help analyse incidents?
Yes. We can help you analyse events and identify risk mitigation actions.
Does monitoring require an additional server?
Depends on the tool and scope. Local, cloud or hybrid solutions are possible.
