Overview

Realizing Cloud Value:

See Everything

The Microsoft Azure platform delivers critical speed and elastic scale, but this velocity creates an operational paradox: dynamic workloads introduce complex visibility gaps and shift the attack surface. Static, log-centric performance monitoring and security are insufficient to respond to issues that can take hours or even days to remediate. To achieve holistic operational resilience and maximize the efficacy of Microsoft Sentinel and Defender for Endpoint, NetOps and SecOps teams require instantaneous, high-fidelity network telemetry. Network performance monitoring (NPM) and network detection and response (NDR) unify visibility, empowering rapid threat containment, speeding MTTD/MTTR, and eliminating critical cloud blind spots.

Challenges

The Cloud Visibility Gap:

Don't Let Scale Create Blind Spots

The inherent nature of hybrid environments, cloud computing, and SaaS applications introduces significant blind spots. Relying solely on agents and logs alone creates visibility gaps in lateral (east-west) traffic, particularly for encrypted data, containers, and serverless activities. This limited visibility restricts the effectiveness of tools such as Microsoft Sentinel and Defender for Endpoint, and leaves environments like Microsoft 365 exposed. Consequently, security and performance threats become challenging to detect, posing a significant strain on the SOC and NOC teams to identify the root cause of incidents and respond promptly and effectively.

How RevealX Detects Threats With Network Detection and Response (NDR)

Explore how RevealX NDR elevates your SOC efficacy and improves resilience with a single platform that moves seamlessly from visibility to detection to forensic investigation to response.

Solution

Unlock Ground Truth:

NPM and NDR Built for Azure Scale

ExtraHop RevealX delivers cloud-scale network detection and response (NDR) and network performance monitoring (NPM). It eliminates blind spots by decrypting 90+ protocols, including TLS 1.3 (PFS) and other exploited Microsoft protocols. Integrating this packet-level intelligence with Microsoft Sentinel and Defender for Endpoint provides NetSecOps teams with extraordinary situational awareness. And this synergy empowers NetOps to quickly and effectively troubleshoot performance and maintain reliability, while accelerating security MTTR for SecOps, delivering customers the full value from their Azure workloads and Microsoft productivity and security tools.
