Argus Watch by BeMa Cyber Tech

Microsoft-native automation.
BeMa analysts in command.

Delivered by BeMa Cyber Tech’s own staff, Argus Watch combines Microsoft Sentinel automation with analyst-led investigation and response. BeMa deliberately runs a small SOC with a limited customer base, so each customer gets a dedicated team that knows their estate — not one of hundreds.

Live today: Microsoft Sentinel automation for enrichment, de-duplication and prioritisation, with BeMa analysts leading investigations and response decisions. Agents recommend; analysts decide.

Microsoft Security Copilot agents, such as phishing triage, are rolling out from November 2026 where your tenant has Security Copilot capacity. BeMa’s own agent capabilities will be added over time.

Oversight model

Three tiers of autonomy. You decide where each action sits.

TIER A

Autonomous

Low-risk automation agreed in advance, such as Sentinel alert enrichment, de-duplication and prioritisation. Executed under agreed runbooks and logged.

TIER B

Analyst approved

Actions with business impact, such as revoking a privileged session or isolating a host, require approval by a named BeMa analyst. As agents are introduced, they recommend; analysts decide.

TIER C

Customer approved

Actions touching critical systems or people, which you designate. Escalated to your nominated contacts with a full evidence pack.

This is an example operating model. Response boundaries, approvals and record-keeping are agreed with you as part of service scoping.
