Security

We support you in securing your new or existing Microsoft 365 tenant. In most cases, we start from the M365 Security Score, which is a measure of your organization’s security situation. The goal is to protect your organization and your data from internal and external threats by following score recommendations. Through a central dashboard in the M365 Security Center, your organization can monitor and continuously work on the security of M365 identities, apps, and devices.

As a foundation, we use the Cloud Adoption Framework (CAF) to help us with cloud adoption and provide guidance for each method.

Also, use M365 Defender. M365 Defender is a unified defense suite for organizations before and after an attack. With the integrated M365 Defender solution, your security professionals can piece together the threat signals each of these products receives and determine the full scope and impact of the threat.

Alongside this, you have the option to protect your business with Azure Security Center. This is a tool for managing your security status and protecting against threats.

Governance

In general, IT governance encompasses a set of policies, roles, responsibilities, and processes that enable an organization’s business units and IT teams to make decisions together and ensure a successful and sustainable digital workplace.

In technical applications, governance is implemented with an IT strategy in permissions, policies, rules, monitoring, and auditing.
