HOW OUR SERVICE WORKS WITH MICROSOFT

Expert Depth. Machine Speed. Human Accountability

Microsoft E3 and E5 licences include powerful security capabilities that most organisations only use at a fraction of their potential. VisionX activates every capability you're already paying for and makes it work for you around the clock. Our service is built on a decade of frontline incident response experience, designed from the ground up for organisations that run on Microsoft.

Trained on millions of Microsoft events

Our detection engineers write and tune Sentinel analytics rules and hunting queries for your environment. Our AI models, trained on millions of Microsoft security events, score and correlate alerts, cutting alert noise before an analyst needs to look.

Automated playbooks act in seconds

When a confirmed threat is identified, our analysts run pre-approved SOAR playbooks that act in seconds, isolating hosts via Defender for Endpoint, revoking Entra ID sessions, blocking malicious IPs, and quarantining emails, all without waiting for manual approval.

Certified Microsoft analysts for validation

Our certified Microsoft analysts provide judgement, validating complex attack chains, conducting proactive threat hunts inside your Sentinel workspace, and delivering post-incident analysis that turns every event into a stronger defence.

Certified Microsoft Security Partner

Smarttech247 holds Microsoft Solutions Partner status for Security, giving our team direct access to Microsoft's threat intelligence feeds and security programmes, and providing our customers with a structural advantage in detection speed and product depth.

HOW IT WORKS

One Service Across Your Microsoft Stack

ILLUSTRATIVE INCIDENT RESPONSE TIMES FOR MDR

From Alert to Containment

Most MDR providers alert. We act. Detection engineers tuning your rules, analysts hunting threats your tools never flagged, and a response team that contains incidents in minutes. Every discipline feeds the next.

3:45pm

Potential ransomware threat detected

Suspicious activity identified through continuous monitoring. The incident is immediately prioritised for investigation.

3:49pm

Incident escalated and response activated

Security specialists assess the threat, activate the agreed response plan and notify key stakeholders.

3:54pm

Threat contained to minimise disruption

Immediate containment measures limit further exposure and protect critical business operations.

3:58pm

Ransomware controlled · blast radius: one server

13 min

The incident is contained to a single server, with no further spread identified. Investigation and recovery planning begin.

Incident contained — sub 15 minutes

Rapid response limited the incident's scope. Stakeholders are informed, evidence is preserved and a post-incident review is initiated.

VISIONX AND MICROSOFT FAQS

Common Questions We Get Asked

What Microsoft products does VisionX support?

VisionX connects natively across the full Microsoft security stack. This includes Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, Defender for Identity, Defender for Office 365, Defender for Cloud Apps, Microsoft Sentinel, and Azure infrastructure. Every signal across endpoint, identity, email, cloud and network feeds into a single detection and response engine, so threats cannot move between tools undetected.

Do we need to replace our existing Microsoft licences or tools?

No. VisionX works within your existing Microsoft environment. If you are running E3 or E5 licences, VisionX activates the security capabilities you are already paying for but not fully operationalising. There is no agent sprawl, no third-party log forwarders, and no additional attack surface introduced. We work inside your existing governance and compliance posture, not around it.

How quickly can VisionX be deployed?

Most organisations are live within 5 to 10 days. Because VisionX connects via Microsoft native APIs, there is no rip and replace and no lengthy procurement process. Onboarding includes full environment baselining, custom detection rule configuration and analyst familiarisation with your specific environment before monitoring begins.

What does complete response mean in practice?

It means our analysts do not stop at the alert. When a threat is confirmed, VisionX triggers pre-approved SOAR playbooks that act immediately — isolating hosts via Defender for Endpoint, revoking Entra ID sessions, blocking malicious IPs, and purging malicious emails — all without waiting for manual approval. Every action is logged, reversible and reported. You get a full post-incident report within four hours. Most vendors hand the response back to your internal team. We close it.

How does VisionX support our compliance obligations?

Every incident generates a structured report mapped to MITRE ATT&CK, with full audit trails for NIS2, DORA, ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials and GDPR. Your board and auditors get the evidence they need without additional effort from your team. For organisations under NIS2, VisionX supports the 24h early warning and 72h incident reporting timelines directly, with SOC analysts who understand the regulatory context, not just the technical one.

We already have an internal security team, is VisionX still a fit?

Yes, and most of our clients do. VisionX is designed to extend your internal team, not replace it. Your team retains full visibility and control. What changes is the operational burden — monitoring, triage, investigation and containment are handled by our analysts around the clock, freeing your internal team to focus on security strategy, architecture and the work that actually requires their expertise. Most clients find their team becomes more effective, not redundant.
