Why these ratings?
Cyberse perspective
Summary by Cyberse
Microsoft Sentinel may be considered a good fit for you due to its powerful capabilities.
Here’s a few tips on how to maximize its capabilities:
We use the following criteria to rate this product’s functionality:
Cost considerations
Pricing uses a transparent per-endpoint model that already covers 24×7 monitoring, threat hunting, and remote containment, making spend predictable. Peer feedback shows the service usually undercuts big-name MDR competitors and the statement of work is clear. Separate fees for long-term log retention or extra cloud sources mean overall costs are competitive rather than rock-bottom.
Capabiliities
Secureworks Taegis delivers 24×7 analyst monitoring with remote host isolation and other containment actions, along with regular threat hunting and vulnerability context. The service integrates telemetry from major public clouds and a broad range of security tools to give unified visibility and response. OT coverage is still emerging, preventing a top-tier score.
Team expertise
Secureworks staffs 24×7 SOCs with senior analysts, threat hunters, and malware researchers holding CISSP, GIAC, and similar credentials. Many members have more than five to ten years of frontline incident-response experience in the Secureworks Counter Threat Unit. That depth reduces unnecessary escalations and delivers clear, decisive guidance to customers.
Tools & methodology
Secureworks Taegis XDR uses SIEM-grade analytics, UEBA and an integrated SOAR engine with playbooks mapped to MITRE. Dedicated analysts fine-tune the rules every day and automate response steps. Customers receive live dashboards that track key metrics, so the methodology is at the top end of managed security tools.
Company reputation
Secureworks has operated for two decades and is regularly cited by Gartner and Forrester as a strong managed detection provider. Public sources report no significant customer data breaches or scandals, and the company holds SOC 2 Type II attestation. Analyst coverage is positive but Taegis is not consistently in the very top quadrant, placing overall reputation just below the highest tier.
