## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-09-16 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> For a remote/distributed team there's no network perimeter to monitor, so the SIEM that wins is the one that ingests identity, SaaS, and endpoint logs well - not the one with the best firewall parsers. Here's who I'd actually name, in order:
> 
> **1. Microsoft Sentinel** - The default if you're on Microsoft 365/Entra ID, which most remote-first companies are. Entra sign-in logs, Defender, and M365 audit logs connect with near-zero configuration, and those three sources *are* your perimeter when everyone works from home. It's fully SaaS, so there's no appliance for a distributed team to babysit. Pricing in 2026 runs about $4.30/GB pay-as-you-go, dropping to ~$2.96/GB at a 100 GB/day commitment, and M365 logs ingest free. There's also a promotional 50 GB/day tier in preview aimed at smaller orgs.

> 
> **2. Blumira** - My pick if you have no dedicated security staff, which is the common case for a small remote team. Onboarding is genuinely fast (rated 9.1 vs. Wazuh's 7.9 on ease
