Microsoft Defender XDR,
monitored by our SOC.
Defender unifies endpoint, email, identity, and cloud-app threat protection into one signal. TruPoint deploys it, tunes the policies, and watches it around the clock from a Canadian SOC — so a detection becomes a contained incident, not a breach.
One XDR signal across four attack surfaces.
Defender isn't a single antivirus product — it's a coordinated detection-and-response suite that correlates threats across the places your business actually gets attacked.
Defender for Endpoint
Behaviour-based EDR on every managed device. Stops ransomware pre-execution, isolates compromised endpoints, and feeds the SOC a full attack timeline.
Defender for Office 365
Phishing, business-email-compromise, and malicious-link protection on inbound mail — with safe-attachment detonation and post-delivery clawback.
Defender for Identity
Watches Entra ID and on-prem AD for credential theft, lateral movement, and privilege escalation — the moves that turn one stolen login into a breach.
Defender for Cloud Apps
CASB visibility and control across Microsoft 365 and connected SaaS — risky OAuth grants, anomalous downloads, and shadow IT, surfaced and governed.
From licensing to a monitored XDR in four phases.
The same rollout discipline we run on every TruWorkspace deployment — tuned so alerts are actionable, not noise.
Discover
Audit existing licensing (E3/E5/Business Premium), current AV, and identity surface. Map what Defender already covers — and what's dark.
Design
Attack-surface-reduction rules, ASR baselines, safe-link/safe-attachment policy, and identity alert tuning to your environment and risk tier.
Deploy
Onboard endpoints via Intune, enable the Defender suite tenant-wide, and migrate off legacy AV with no coverage gap. Pilot, then phase.
Operate
SOC triages every alert, auto-remediates known-good, and escalates real incidents. Quarterly tuning. Annual purple-team validation.
Enterprise XDR you already license — finally turned on properly.
Most SMBs on Microsoft 365 Business Premium or E5 are already paying for Defender and using a fraction of it. TruPoint configures the whole suite and puts a Canadian SOC behind it — the level of detection-and-response insurers now expect.
- No extra agent — it's built into the Microsoft stack you own
- One correlated signal across device, email, and identity
- 24/7 SOC eyes — answers "who is watching?" on the insurer form
- Auto-isolation contains ransomware before it spreads
- Evidence and audit trail that feed TruCompliance directly
"We were already paying for E5. TruPoint switched Defender on the right way and now a phished credential gets caught the same hour — not the same quarter.
Where Defender fits in the TruPoint stack.
TruWorkspace Zero Trust™
Defender is the detection-and-response layer of the flagship service — alongside Cloudflare ZTNA, Entra, and Intune.
TruCompliance™
Defender incident records and coverage reports become evidence for SOC II, ISO 27001, and cyber-insurance audits.
Microsoft 365
Defender ships inside the Microsoft 365 tenant we deploy, harden, and manage end to end.
