Microsoft Threat Protection Immersion Briefing

Threat ProtectionXDRIncident Response

Overview

The global average cost of a data breach surged to $4.88 million in 2024, and threat actors keep getting faster, smarter, and more relentless. Organizations with strong cybersecurity strategies are 40% less likely to experience a breach.

In this 90-minute session, Ascent walked through how AI and automation help security teams detect threats others miss, accelerate investigation and response, and disrupt attacks at machine speed, before damage is done. The briefing included a live attack simulation showing Microsoft's threat protection technology in action, built for business and technical leaders at small to medium enterprises.

What you'll walk away knowing.

01

AI and automation catch what manual review misses

Machine-speed detection surfaces threats that traditional, alert-driven monitoring lets slip through.

02

Faster investigation and response shrinks the damage window

Automation compresses the time between detection and action, the biggest lever in limiting breach cost and impact.

03

Disruption happens before damage is done

The goal isn't just visibility, it's stopping an attack in progress at machine speed.

04

A live attack simulation made it concrete

Attendees saw Microsoft's threat protection technology respond to a real attack scenario in real time, not just in slides.
