New Blog | M365 Defender: Industry-leading protection in 2022 MITRE Engenuity ATT&CK® Evaluations

Microsoft 365 Defender demonstrates industry-leading protection in the 2022 MITRE Engenuity ATT&CK® Evaluations - Microsoft Security Blog

For the fourth consecutive year, Microsoft 365 Defender demonstrated its industry-leading protection in MITRE Engenuity’s independent ATT&CK® Enterprise Evaluations, showcasing the value of an integrated XDR-based defense that unifies device and identity protection with a Zero Trust approach:

• Complete visibility and analytics to all stages of the attack chain
• 100% protection, blocking all stages in early steps
• Each attack generated a single comprehensive incident for the SOC
• Differentiated XDR capabilities with integrated identity protection
• Protection for Linux across all attack stages
• Deep and integrated Windows device sensors
• Leading with product truth and a customer-centric approach

Microsoft 365 Defender XDR solution displayed top-class coverage by successfully surfacing to the security operations center (SOC) a single comprehensive incident per each of the simulated attacks. This comprehensive view provided in each incident detailed suspicious device and identity activities coupled with unparalleled coverage of adversary techniques across the entire attack chain. Microsoft 365 Defender also demonstrated 100% protection by blocking both attacks in the early stages.

This is the third year in which Microsoft 365 Defender showcases the power of the combined XDR suite, demonstrating coverage across devices, identities, and cloud applications.
