Halcyon for Microsoft Sentinel (Preview)
by Halcyon Tech, Inc.
Halcyon integration with Microsoft Sentinel for ransomware detection and unified security visibility
Purpose-Built Anti-Ransomware Protection Integrated with Microsoft Sentinel
Ransomware moves in seconds, not days. Halcyon integrates natively with Microsoft Sentinel and Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (MDE) to deliver earlier detection, automated response, and immediate containment of ransomware threats across the Microsoft security stack.
Together, Halcyon and Microsoft provide a unified defense that transforms ransomware detection into actionable, automated protection stopping attacks before business disruption occurs.
The Challenge
Modern ransomware campaigns are fast, evasive, and human-operated:
- Threats bypass traditional EDR and security controls
- Manual response workflows delay containment
- Endpoint tampering disables security protections
- Fragmented tooling slows investigation and response
Even well-deployed Microsoft environments need purpose-built ransomware intelligence and automated containment to close these gaps.
Key Capabilities
Unified Threat Visibility with Microsoft Sentinel
- Halcyon ransomware alerts mapped directly to Sentinel’s schema
- Correlated visibility across Halcyon, Defender, and Microsoft telemetry
- Faster investigation using KQL, Sentinel analytics, and Security Copilot
- Continuous monitoring of Defender health and integrity
- Detects EDR tampering, bypass attempts, and privilege escalation
- Ensures Microsoft Defender protections remain active during attacks
Re-Infection & Lateral Movement Prevention
- Continuous monitoring to detect and disrupt ransomware propagation
- Behavioral intelligence identifies malicious activity attempting to re-establish persistence or move laterally
- Ensures threats are fully contained and prevents re-compromise after isolation
Microsoft-Driven Ransomware Response Workflow
