Blog Post Security teams are facing more threats, more complexity, and more pressure to act quickly - without increasing risk or operational overhead. What matters is being able to find the right capability, deploy it safely, and use it where security work already happens. Microsoft Security Store was built with that goal in mind.

Blog Post Navigate to: | | | As customers accelerate toward AI‑powered transformation, partners are being asked not only to deliver technology, but to guide outcomes. This month’s Cloud & AI newsletter brings together Azure platform innovations, incentives, skilling, events, and go‑to‑market resources designed to meet that moment—supporting efforts to migrate and modernize with confidence, build intelligent apps and agents, and turn data into a competitive advantage.

As Microsoft Sentinel and Defender converge into a unified experience, organizations face a fundamental challenge: the lack of a scalable, comprehensive, delegated access model that works seamlessly across Entra ID and Sentinel’s Azure Resource Manage creating a significant barrier for Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs) and large enterprises with complex multi-tenant structures.

Blog Post Explore common agentic use cases built on the Microsoft Sentinel platform, showing how developers can correlate identity, endpoint, network, and threat intelligence signals to create fast, repeatable investigation and response workflows with Security Copilot agents. Interested in building an agent with Sentinel platform solutions but not sure where to start? This blog will help you understand some common use cases for agent development that we’ve seen across our partner ecosystem.

Blog Post Learn how App Assure’s new Sentinel Advisory Service extends the Microsoft Sentinel Promise—helping software partners design, refine, and scale integrations that unlock advanced analytics, agentic AI scenarios, and greater value from Microsoft Sentinel and Sentinel data lake.

Blog Post Microsoft Purview helps organizations scale agentic AI with confidence by embedding security, compliance, and governance controls across the AI stack—from prompts and data, to copilots and autonomous agents—so innovation doesn’t come at the cost of risk AI is rapidly reshaping how organizations work. From AI apps embedded in everyday productivity tools to autonomous agents orchestrating complex, multi‑step workflows, AI is moving from experimentation to execution at enterprise scale.

Blog Post Explore the expanding Microsoft Sentinel connector ecosystem, featuring new and enhanced integrations from security partners that unify signals, enrich investigations, and support modern analytics and AI‑driven workflows across Microsoft Sentinel Microsoft Sentinel helps organizations detect, investigate, and respond to security threats across increasingly complex environments.

Blog Post Email is still a major entry point—but it’s no longer the only one that matters. Today’s attackers are increasingly shifting to collaboration channels like Microsoft Teams, where trust is implicit and interaction is real time. Decisions happen fast, and that changes the economics of attacks. Adversaries can pressure users, adapt on the fly, and accelerate their objectives before traditional controls have time to respond.

Blog Post Modern attacks increasingly exploit the sprawl of today’s digital environments. In the identity space alone, over half of today’s organizations say each person now has more than 21 distinct accounts. Each one of these accounts is a potential entry point that an attacker can exploit. As organizations adopt cloud, SaaS, AI, and autonomous agents, the rapid growth of non‑human identities accelerates sprawl, expanding the attack surface and increasing gaps in protection.
