  41. The November 2024 edition of Microsoft's monthly blog post highlights product updates and new features across their Defender products. Notably, the Microsoft Defender XDR & Microsoft Sentinel have been unified into a single Security Operations Platform. The update also includes improvements to advanced hunting in the Microsoft Defender portal, with users now able to use the arg() operator for Azure Resource Graph queries without needing to go to Log Analytics in Microsoft Sentinel. Other enhancements include added Unified RBAC roles with new permission levels for Threat Experts customers, Insider Risk Management insights integrated into Defender XDR, and an updated training video on how to use the Alert page.

    Microsoft has also introduced several new features for its Sentinel platform including matching analytics for threat detection and a Use Cases Mapper workbook. They've completely updated their Ninja Training program which now points you towards official MS Learning paths so you can earn badges upon completion. There are strategies outlined on how you can save money on your Sentinel ingestion costs by reducing data volume while still collecting necessary information. Additionally, they discuss Cowrie honeypot integration with Microsoft Sentinel and deploying Sentinel using Bicep among other things.

  44. Microsoft is enhancing its security measures by removing the option to skip multifactor authentication (MFA) registration for 14 days when security defaults are enabled. This means that all users will have to register for MFA on their first login after security defaults are activated, reducing the risk of account compromise during the initial two-week period. The change, which can block over 99.2% of identity-based attacks, will be implemented for new tenants from December 2nd, 2024 and rolled out to existing ones starting January 2025.

    This update is part of Microsoft's Secure Future Initiative aimed at providing a secure and reliable identity service. If you're not using Conditional Access, it's recommended that you enable these security defaults as they offer an effective way to protect your users and resources from common threats. To learn more about these upcoming updates and how best to prepare your user base, please review Microsoft's documentation.
