Microsoft 365 E5 and E7 customers get a tenant-specific answer on ISOC economics, plus seven MXDR365 agents and playbooks to run it 24×7

IRVINE, Calif., Sept. 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Patriot Consulting, a Microsoft Solutions Partner for Security with Microsoft Verified Managed XDR solution status, today announced a free ISOC Cost Evaluation for Microsoft 365 E5 and E7 organizations adopting the newly announced Integrated Security Operations Center (ISOC) in Microsoft Defender. ISOC brings SIEM capabilities into the Microsoft Defender portal as a benefit of Microsoft 365 E5 and E7, including 90 days of Defender data retention starting November 15, 2026, and a $2.40 per GB ingestion meter for non-Microsoft data starting October 1, 2026.

Patriot’s ISOC Cost Evaluation is available now at no cost, request an ISOC Cost Evaluation today.

A Benefit, Not a Product: Why the Math Matters

As Patriot explains in its analysis, ISOC in Microsoft Defender: Not a New Product, a New E5 and E7 Benefit, whether ISOC lowers cost depends on the tenant. The new meter is 44% below Sentinel’s $4.30 per GB pay-as-you-go list price. Existing Sentinel customers can opt in starting November 15, 2026, but doing so gives up the current E5 benefit of up to 5 MB of free ingestion per user per day, and organizations that already tier high-volume logs to the Sentinel data lake may already be optimized.

The ISOC Cost Evaluation compares each organization’s licensing, log volumes, and current tiering against ISOC’s retention and ingestion pricing, then delivers a tenant-specific recommendation.

“Patriot Consulting is thrilled to announce a complimentary ISOC assessment,” said Rick Cox, President of Patriot Consulting. “We will crunch the numbers and provide expert guidance for the quickest deployment path. We guarantee a quote in 24 hours, and we can often leverage Microsoft funding and discounts to offset our consulting fees.”

Agentic MXDR365 Operations on ISOC

Patriot’s MXDR365 24×7 managed detection and response service runs on Microsoft Defender XDR and Microsoft Sentinel and includes proprietary agents and automated playbooks that put ISOC’s shared signals and context to work:

MXDR365 Vanguard, a threat intelligence agent that gathers public threat intelligence feeds from dozens of sources.MXDR365 Overwatch, a threat hunting agent that takes the baton from Vanguard and builds targeted threat hunts.MXDR365 Hindsight, a log ingestion latency detection agent that re-runs detection rules over the gap periods that ingestion delays create.MXDR365 Sentry, a deep analysis agent that runs a multi-pivot investigation, historical review, and adversarial verification against its own conclusion before it calls anything real. More coverage, less noise.MXDR365 Automated Identity Triage, a deterministic playbook that retrieves third-party OSINT on relevant indicators of compromise, compares it to historical data, and completes automated identity remediation in about one minute.MXDR365 Phishing Triage Agent, which examines user-reported phishing emails for signs of user interaction, then performs automated remediation.MXDR365 Minuteman, a local AI agent designed to protect against frontier model refusals.

“ISOC puts analysts and agents on the same signals and context in one place, and that is where our agents do their best work,” said Zach Moore, Vice President of MXDR365 at Patriot Consulting. “Vanguard and Overwatch turn fresh intelligence into targeted hunts, Hindsight closes ingestion blind spots, and Sentry challenges its own conclusion before it escalates anything.”

In Microsoft’s September 23 announcement, Rob Lefferts, Corporate Vice President, Microsoft Threat Protection, wrote: “Security operations and native protection must function as one system.”

Beyond the SOC

Patriot pairs MXDR365 with three offerings that extend the value of ISOC:

SecureShield365, Patriot’s proactive security configuration hardening service, turns lessons learned from SOC investigations into hardened Microsoft Defender XDR configurations.AIShield365, Patriot’s newest solution, is designed to reduce risk through AI governance.Patriot Academy Premium offers live, instructor-led training on the latest Microsoft Defender XDR and Sentinel best practices.

Researchers Find Pets May be One of the Most Powerful Wellbeing Tools for Solo Agers

New Mather Institute Study Provides Insights into How Pet Ownership Can Dramatically Elevate Physical, Psychological and Social Wellbeing

EVANSTON, Ill., Sept. 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As the population of solo agers continues to grow and face risks of loneliness and isolation, pets are proving to serve as a vital, nontraditional support system to help improve healthspan and wellbeing.

A new study from Mather Institute provides evidence that older adults who are solo aging (i.e. who live alone and don’t regularly have family or friends to support them) may benefit from owning pets. Specifically, these pet-owning solo agers reported a range of benefits related to physical activity, wellbeing and healthspan, or the length of time a person is in good health and has a good quality of life, with some of the strongest differences observed among dog owners.

Pet ownership supports independence and bridges gaps in social connection, purpose and emotional support older adults often encounter. A key finding from the online survey of 900 solo agers aged 55 and better is how their pets help counter social isolation and loneliness.

Older adults aging alone are a fast-growing segment of the population, putting them at risk for loneliness and isolation. As adults age, their daily social connections and support systems can shrink as children build families of their own or friends move away. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, among individuals aged 65 to 74, 27% of women and 21% of men live solo, and these numbers soar to 43% and 24%, respectively, for those 75 and better. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that loneliness can increase a person’s risk for heart disease, depression and anxiety, dementia and earlier death.

Survey participant key findings:

Nearly half said pets help reduce loneliness, while a third said pets lead to more social interactions through activities such as daily walks and regular outdoor time.76% reported improved emotional wellbeing, 62% reported reduced stress and 45% reported increased physical activity.Participants said pets enrich daily life, providing a greater sense of purpose and structure.

Regular physical activity is one of the strongest predictors of healthspan, by preserving cardiovascular fitness, muscle strength and mobility. Strong social relationships are also a powerful determinant of healthspan, linked to lower morality risk, slower biological aging and improved mental health.

“One of the things this research reminds us is that healthspan is about more than medical care,” said Jennifer Smith, vice president of Mather Institute. “Social connection, purpose and physical activity can make a world of difference – and pets can help support all three. Even a 10-minute walk with your dog can create opportunities to be active and connect with others. For many, pets also provide companionship and emotional support. We hope this report highlights the meaningful role a furry friend can play in aging well.”

Other notable findings from the pets and solo aging report include:

Dog owners reported the highest physical activity, scoring 42% higher than pet-free adults. Many cat owners describe frequent short bursts of movement, including feeding, play sessions and household routines, that encourage healthy daily habits.Solo agers without pets averaged the lowest weekly activity, highlighting how pets create opportunities for daily movement.Dog owners aged 55 to 64 reported fewer symptoms of depression and better overall wellbeing compared to cat owners.For those aged 75 and better, cat owners reported lower levels of depressive symptoms compared to their dog-owning peers.

“Having my two fur babies not only gives me joy but allows me to not feel alone,” said BrendaLea Abbott, 66, a Mather community programs participant. “Without them, I would be outside much less and would not have the connection with next-door neighbors or people strolling in my neighborhood. Even when my fur babies are not with me, they connect me to others as I purchase food, treats and toys and strike up conversations with pet owners in the pet store.”

The report also reveals age-related challenges pet owners face, including financial stress, time commitment and backup care worries. Drawing on these findings, Mather Institute recommends practical ways to enhance resources for older adults who choose pet companionship, including:

Designate trusted caregivers or shelters for emergency pet care. Community-based foster programs can provide short- or long-term solutions, ensuring pets are safe when owners face health crises.Choose the right pets that match energy levels, size and temperament of the pet owner’s lifestyle and health.Find volunteer-based programs that provide practical, hands-on help, from walking pets to assisting with vet visits.

The pets and solo aging study is just one of a series of studies conducted by Mather Institute to advance wellbeing and healthspan. Additional research topics have included the benefits of gardening for older adults, Generation X in the workplace and aging well across cultures.
