I really liked the approach of having a imaginary company with a certain goals and situation. It made the examples more vivid and made me also think about possible solutions beforehand. I've read a bunch of technical books and this one goes to the top tier. It cover surprisingly vast area for 250 pages and explains terminology and concepts really well. It's a must read handbook for any Microsoft security specialist using XDR, SIEM or watching over cloud or hybrid security!

This book is perfect in so many ways to me. The authors use an illustrativer case study as a foundation for their illustrations of modernizing a business into more secure solutions. Zero Trust and an overview of SIEM basics and function are covered prior to introduction of XDR and SIEM solution. Microsofts unified approach to Threat Detection and Response , utilizing XDR to defend and utilizinf Microsoft XDR and SIEM for investigations and Incident response. This is excellent as a learning resource as well as a great refence resource in any SOC utilizing Microsofts XDR/SIEM.
