SOCaaS for Microsoft Sentinel

by Mark Rowe
BT is launching Security Operations Centre-as-a-Service (SOCaaS) for Microsoft Sentinel. The firms describe it as a UK-managed service that combines Sentinel with BTโ€™s security operations and threat intelligence. They add that the launch reflects a deepening strategic relationship between BT and Microsoft across AI, security and cloud services, and builds on BTโ€™s experience as a managed security provider for Microsoft Sentinel.

BT adds that the company is blocking around four million attempted cyber-attacks every day and protecting more businesses than any other network. BT combines Sentinel, managed operations, threat intelligence and UK cyber in one service.

Jon James, CEO, BT Business,ย said:ย โ€œAI is transforming the cyber threat landscape at unprecedented speed, and our customers need protection that stays one step ahead. By extending our partnership with Microsoft, weโ€™re combining cutting-edge security technology with BTโ€™s cyber expertise and threat intelligence to deliver stronger, more proactive protection. Itโ€™s the latest example of how weโ€™re helping organisations build resilience and defend against the next generation of AI-powered threats.โ€

And Darren Hardman, CEO, Microsoft UK and Ireland,ย said: โ€œAI is increasing the speed, scale and sophistication of cyber threats. By combining Microsoft Sentinel with BTโ€™s managed security expertise and UK cyber operations, we can help organisations simplify security, strengthen resilience and respond with greater confidence.โ€

Background
