Patriot Consulting Rolls Out Free ISOC Cost Evaluation Amid Microsoft Security Overhaul
Patriot Consulting has launched a free cost evaluation for organizations using Microsoft's Integrated Security Operations Center (ISOC) in their Microsoft Defender portal. The ISOC is a benefit of Microsoft 365 E5 and E7 subscriptions, which include SIEM capabilities and 90 days of Defender data retention starting November 15, 2026.
The new meter will cost $2.40 per GB ingestion for non-Microsoft data starting October 1, 2026, which is a 44% reduction from Sentinel's current pay-as-you-go list price of $4.30 per GB.
Patriot Consulting's ISOC Cost Evaluation compares an organization's licensing, log volumes, and current tiering against ISOC's retention and ingestion pricing to deliver a tenant-specific recommendation.
The company also offers a 24x7 managed detection and response service called MXDR365, which runs on Microsoft Defender XDR and Sentinel. This includes proprietary agents and automated playbooks that utilize ISOC's shared signals and context.
