MITRE ATT&CK:
See How Microsoft Stacks Up
In the 2022 MITRE Engenuity ATT&CK Evaluation—the most trusted 3rd party performance test in the industry—SentinelOne achieved record-breaking results, delivering 100% protection across operating systems with the fastest threat containment and with the most analytic detections 3 years running. The SentinelOne Singularity platform consolidated the 109-step campaign into just 9 console alerts out-of-the-box, providing 99% visibility and automatically providing analysts with the context & correlation they need without extensive setup.
On the other hand, Microsoft had to leverage all of its different security products across identity security, endpoint security, cloud application security, email security, and several operating system capabilities to complete the evaluation. Not surprisingly, this complex product mix resulted in Microsoft being forced to pause the assessment 13 times to make configuration changes. Still, they could only provide analytic detections for 98 of 109 substeps.
3 Reasons Why Teams
Trust SentinelOne Vs. Microsoft
Coverage
Without Compromise
Modern enterprise environments are comprised of more than just Windows workstations and servers. While Microsoft Defender for Endpoint may provide “Advanced Threat Protection” for Windows 10+ endpoints, they lag severely behind in features and coverage for macOS, Linux, and earlier Windows versions.
SentinelOne is better equipped for the unique needs of every organization with support for modern and legacy operating systems and feature parity across Windows, macOS, and Linux. SentinelOne even extends protection to cloud workloads, securing VMs and containers running on AWS, Azure, GCP, Docker, and Kubernetes without added consoles like Azure Defender.
Partnership
When It Matters Most
In the face of today’s threats, your success comes down to rapid, reliable security. Microsoft customers lack access to in-house MDR experts who can guide & manage their programs, or even triage & respond to security incidents. They also frequently find themselves at the mercy of long customer service lines and disorganized documentation.
SentinelOne’s commitment to customer success is demonstrated by our 97% satisfaction rate (CSAT) and full suite of security services. Our experts gain an intimate understanding of your environment to not only provide direct answers to your questions, but even offload day-to-day monitoring, triage, investigation, and incident response with our Vigilance MDR & DFIR offerings.
