Integrating SUSE Security with Microsoft Sentinel for Unified Threat Protection

SUSE recently announced a powerful new integration between SUSE Security (formerly NeuVector) and Microsoft Sentinel, a cloud-native security information and event management (SIEM) solution. This integration, further strengthened by the AI capabilities of Microsoft Security Copilot, provides a unified security approach across your hybrid and multi-cloud environments.

Why would you want this?

Technology is always evolving and a robust security stance is becoming increasingly important for users and administrators alike. Unfortunately, many tools have unique interfaces or interactions that make getting an overview of your entire environment more difficult. This integration between SUSE Security and Microsoft Sentinel introduces a solution for unifying the security approach utilizing Microsoft Sentinel and its robust suite of features to gain a comprehensive overview of your entire environment. Through this integration you can gain the following:

• Improved Visibility: Centralize your security dashboard to eliminate blind spots and gain a comprehensive view of threats across your environments.
• Faster Threat Response: Create playbooks to respond to threats automatically while also alerting required parties.
• Streamlined Security Operations: Simplify security management by centralizing both the data and response process.
• Stronger Security Posture: Shrink security gaps by removing the need to monitor multiple security applications.
• Enhanced Threat Detection: Connect with Microsoft Security Copilot to correlate data to identify complex and sophisticated attacks.

How does the SUSE Security and Microsoft Sentinel Integration work?

SUSE Security, a fully open source, zero trust container security platform, continuously monitors network traffic and processes within your Kubernetes environment. When a potential threat is detected, SUSE Security sends the data around the detection to Microsoft Sentinel. Azure playbooks can then raise incidents or even take automated action to prevent further problems. When connecting Microsoft Security Copilot with Microsoft Sentinel it becomes possible to receive AI-driven recommendations for mitigation or further enhancements. This allows for proactive threat response and automated actions, such as quarantining affected nodes or stopping the offending process.

This integration empowers organizations to proactively address potential threats, streamline security operations, and strengthen their overall security posture. To learn more about this integration and how it can benefit your organization, we encourage you to:
