The Microsoft Security Stack
Microsoft Defender XDR
Microsoft Defender XDR unifies detection and response across endpoint, identity, email and cloud apps, spanning Defender for Endpoint, Office 365, Cloud and Identity, and we deploy, tune and operate it as one managed defence.
Microsoft Sentinel SIEM and SOAR
Microsoft Sentinel is the cloud-native SIEM and SOAR for detection, investigation and automated response, and we onboard your log sources, build the detections that matter and run it around the clock.
Entra, Purview and Intune
Microsoft Entra ID delivers identity, conditional access and multi-factor authentication, Purview covers data governance, information protection and data loss prevention, and Intune manages devices and application control, and we configure and manage them to your Essential Eight obligations.

Contact UsFrequently Asked Questions
Is CyberPulse a Microsoft partner?
Yes. CyberPulse is a Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider and managed security partner in Australia, delivering licensing, deployment and managed services across the Microsoft security stack.
Do you manage Microsoft Sentinel and Defender, or just set them up?
Both. We deploy and then run detection and response continuously as a managed service.
We already have Microsoft 365 E5. Do we need anything else?
Often not. E5 includes extensive security capability that is frequently unused. We activate and operate what you already own before recommending anything additional.
Does Microsoft security help with the Essential Eight?
Yes. Microsoft tooling maps directly to application control, patching, multi-factor authentication, restricting administrative privileges and hardening.
Can you migrate us from another SIEM or EDR to Microsoft?
Yes. We migrate from third-party SIEM and endpoint tools to Sentinel and Defender with minimal disruption.
How does Microsoft security licensing work?
Through our Cloud Solution Provider program across Microsoft 365 and Azure plans and add-ons. We right-size licensing and bundle managed services into a clear, fixed quote.
What is a Cloud Solution Provider?
A Cloud Solution Provider resells and supports Microsoft cloud licensing directly. As your CSP, CyberPulse provides your Microsoft 365 and Azure licensing with local billing, support and security services in one relationship.
Can you co-manage with our existing team?
Yes. We offer fully managed and co-managed models, sharing operations and knowledge transfer so your team builds capability.
Do you replace our internal IT or security team?
No. We augment your team as your managed security partner, running detection and response day to day while you keep control and visibility.

What They Say About Us
The managed service model delivers that, while freeing my team from the bulk of compliance coordination effort and lifting the quality of both controls and supporting evidence. The outcome is a programme with the capacity to mature further and to take on new certification frameworks proactively, ahead of client and regulatory triggers.
What stands out is the depth of expertise. CyberPulse brings real command of the standards and the threat landscape, and applies it with judgement rather than box-ticking. Year on year they strengthen our security and compliance maturity and give leadership confidence that risk is genuinely understood, not just documented.
CyberPulse gave us clarity we didn't have before, not just on where we stood but a practical path forward. The roadmap they delivered has become the foundation of how we think about security investment.
Their guidance was practical, clear, and always grounded in what actually mattered for our business. They didn't just help us tick boxes; they helped us build a security posture we're genuinely proud of. If you're serious about enterprise-grade security, I can't recommend Cyber Pulse highly enough.
