Relying solely on a single security tool can leave vulnerabilities that attackers may exploit. While Microsoft Defender offers robust protection—especially for organizations using Microsoft 365 E3 licenses, a comprehensive security approach requires integrating endpoint protection with SIEM and NDR solutions. Logpoint’s integration with Microsoft Defender extends well beyond simple log collection – it enables streamlined incident response and in-depth security analytics. However, it’s important to recognize that this is just one piece of the broader cybersecurity puzzle.

Seamless integration, effortless incident management
Logpoint’s latest integration with Microsoft Defender simplifies the process of ingesting security data into your SIEM. Without complex configurations, our template-based log source ensures a quick and easy setup, allowing you to focus on analyzing data, not wrangling it.
This integration provides the flexibility to ingest both raw security logs and correlated incidents directly from Defender. And it doesn’t stop there. When an incident is triggered in Microsoft Defender, Logpoint can automatically create a corresponding incident, providing a centralized view of your security posture. This single pane of glass approach saves valuable time by eliminating the need for manual alert rule creation within Logpoint.
To further refine your incident management, Logpoint offers robust filtering options based on severity level and service source, allowing you to prioritize critical events. You can also assign incidents to specific user roles, ensuring the right people are alerted and involved in the response process. Plus, updates made to incidents in either Defender are synchronized, keeping everyone on the same page.
We’ve also made it easier to find the information you need with comprehensive Microsoft documentation readily available in our Docs Portal. No more scattered resources – everything is in one place.

- Easy Setup: Get up and running quickly with our streamlined, template-driven integration.
- Increased Coverage: Gain visibility into alerts and incidents from a wider range of Microsoft 365 E3 services, not just endpoints.
- Centralized Monitoring: Manage incidents from a single platform, reducing manual tasks and improving response times.
- High-Fidelity Alerts: Leverage Microsoft’s correlation capabilities for more accurate and actionable alerts.
Extending your Microsoft ecosystem within Logpoint
While the Defender integration provides a powerful foundation for threat detection and incident response, Logpoint’s capabilities extend far beyond. We understand that organizations rely on a diverse suite of Microsoft tools, such as EventHubs, Azure Log Analytics, Microsoft 365, Microsoft Graph, etc. We’re committed to providing seamless integration with your SIEM and across the entire ecosystem.
Cost-effective log retention for compliance and Operations
Beyond security, Logpoint offers solutions for cost-effective log retention, crucial for both compliance and operational purposes. By ingesting and storing Microsoft logs within Logpoint, you can leverage our efficient storage capabilities, potentially reducing your overall costs compared to relying solely on Microsoft’s native solutions.
Infrastructure and operations monitoring with Azure Log Analytics
Logpoint also integrates with Azure Log Analytics, allowing you to monitor your infrastructure and operations. Stay on top of the performance and health of your Azure environment, identify potential issues, and optimize your resources.
Unified visibility across Microsoft 365
And let’s not forget productivity. Logpoint integrates with Microsoft 365 applications, including Office and SharePoint, providing a comprehensive view of user activity and potential security risks within your collaboration tools.
Empowering MSSPs and Critical Infrastructure
For Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs) looking to differentiate themselves, Logpoint’s integration with Microsoft Defender offers a powerful way to deliver strategic value to customers. By providing a flexible and cost-effective solution, MSSPs can avoid locking their customers into a single vendor like Microsoft Sentinel, while also maintaining data sovereignty. This diversification of services expands their product portfolio, creating a competitive advantage.
Critical National Infrastructure (CNI) organizations, which often require comprehensive security monitoring across diverse environments, also benefit greatly. Logpoint’s integration provides efficient incident monitoring, reduces operational overhead, and allows for vendor flexibility. Unlike solutions that force compromises on data sovereignty, Logpoint empowers CNI organizations to choose the best-fit security solutions for their unique needs.
Yes to security, no to vendor lock-in
Logpoint’s integration with Microsoft Defender, along with our comprehensive support for the Microsoft ecosystem, provides an optimal alternative to relying solely on Microsoft Sentinel. We empower you to build a security architecture that fits your specific needs, without compromising on visibility, efficiency, or data sovereignty.
Through Logpoint, you can maximize your Microsoft security investments and gain a unified view of your entire security posture without compromising your security posture and compliance or breaking the bank in log retention fees.
