For companies that are already using other Atlassian systems, then Atlassian Crowd will fit in very well. This is especially the case if the company is not yet big enough to use LDAP for user management, Atlassian Crowd can act as a temporary solution until the company outgrows it, as it is much easier and simpler than LDAP.

Well-Suited Scenarios: Enterprise Endpoint Protection: Microsoft Defender for Endpoint is well-suited for large organizations with numerous endpoints, such as desktops, laptops, and servers, as it provides centralized management and monitoring of security across the entire network. Microsoft Ecosystem Integration: Organizations heavily invested in the Microsoft ecosystem, using products like Microsoft 365 and Azure, will benefit from the seamless integration offered by Defender for Endpoint, allowing for more efficient threat detection and response.Scenarios Where it Might be Less Appropriate: Non-Windows Environments: While Microsoft Defender for Endpoint has expanded its cross-platform support, it may be less appropriate for organizations predominantly using non-Windows operating systems, as its core features are optimized for Windows endpoints.Small Businesses: Smaller businesses with limited IT resources might find the deployment and management of Defender for Endpoint to be more complex and resource-intensive than they require. In such cases, simpler endpoint security solutions may be more appropriate.

  • I really enjoy the level that we get with our licensing for the timeline on devices, being able to see what happened when it happened down to the millisecond to know exactly what happened when someone clicked something, did something bad, installed something bad, or whichever. And the alert monitoring is really useful for sending emails whenever there's anything that's remotely detected, even if it's a false positive.

Cons
Atlassian
  • Some systems that are not crucial turned into more work than what was originally deemed necessary to successfully deploy Crowd.
  • Linux support was there as it was built mostly to support Windows based systems
  • Documentation was supported but most issues we had required us to contact Atlassian support.

  • Hard to integrate with third party SIEM solution
  • Not available for OS other than Windows
  • It is a little hard to do threat analysis or investigation when you try to correlate the detection with other security control systems like firewalls, web proxies, etc.

Overall, support is good, you get quick responses from Atlassian's official support system, and documentation is decent enough for you to find what you need.

The first time I tried to onboard my macOS endpoints to MDE I struggled for quite a bit. I had to reach out to Microsoft's MDE support team. The tech was very helpful in walking me through the steps during a screen share session

These products allow you to install them on your own infrastructure, so you can manage all aspects of them which can prevent you from getting throttled from API calls. When you hit a certain threshold of scale you may need to switch off of Atlassian Cloud to your own hardware. When you are a small startup, however, this product is probably a good starting point.

Microsoft Defender gels very well with the rest of the M365 suite of products. The security Dashboard gives one view for Email Security and Endpoint Security. The security events can be generated while getting integrated with SIEM solution or can use its own SIEM offering.

Return on Investment
Atlassian
  • New systems are tough when it comes to an ROI, as a dollar amount for saving time on a sign-in can be tough to track. Like most new systems that makes things slightly easier to execute as an end user or manage or support, it really might come down to the existing structure of how a company manages its users.
  • The positives are always with the end user, which I have to say, Crowd was able to accomplish.

  • Positive - Alot of money saved because of looming security threats today in Work from Home environments. Lesser IT cost because of its automation capabilities has made it a really good choice
  • Positive - Because of enhanced security , downtimes are reduced thus profits are increased
  • Negative- Training cost is something which could have been avoided if this defender had some integration with self training modules
  • Negative - Too much costly. Integration cost, new setup cost, ongoing licensing cost etc is too high
