M365 Risk Assessment


The M365 Risk Assessment is a comprehensive audit of your Microsoft 365 environment. It involves an automated assessment strategy that probes the entirety of your environment against the strictest settings from a comprehensive policy toolset. This approach provides insights into potential security and collaboration vulnerabilities, offering recommended action steps to secure vital business assets without constricting essential collaboration tools.

Identity and Access Management


Identity and Access Management (IAM) ensures that the right individuals access the right resources at the right times for the right reasons. It includes managing user identities, authentication, and access policies to protect your organization's data and resources. IAM solutions like Azure Active Directory provide single sign-on, multifactor authentication, and conditional access to enhance security.

Data Loss Prevention


Data Loss Prevention (DLP) helps you protect sensitive information from being shared or accessed by unauthorized users. DLP policies can dynamically prevent unauthorized use by identifying, monitoring, and automatically protecting sensitive data across Microsoft 365 services. This ensures that sensitive information is not accidentally or maliciously shared.

Defender for Endpoint


Microsoft Defender for Endpoint is an enterprise endpoint security platform designed to help enterprises prevent, detect, investigate, and respond to advanced threats. It provides advanced threat protection, endpoint detection and response (EDR), and automated investigation and remediation capabilities to secure your endpoints against sophisticated cyber threats.

Email Security


Email Security solutions protect your organization from email-based threats such as phishing, spam, and malware. These solutions include features like email encryption, advanced threat protection, and anti-phishing measures to safeguard your email communications and prevent data breaches.

Backup and Recovery


Backup and Recovery solutions ensure that your data is protected and can be quickly restored in the event of data loss or a disaster. These solutions include backup for Mailbox, OneDrive, and SharePoint, allowing you to recover individual files, folders, or entire systems to maintain business continuity.

User Awareness Training


User Awareness Training is crucial for educating employees about security best practices and how to recognize and respond to potential threats. Regular training sessions and simulated phishing attacks help build a security-first culture within your organization, reducing the risk of human error leading to security incidents.

Compliance Management


Compliance Management helps organizations meet regulatory requirements and manage data governance. Solutions like Microsoft Purview provide tools to assess, monitor, and ensure compliance with various regulations, helping you manage risks and protect sensitive information.
