Testing Microsoft 365 Configuration Security
Contents
Summary
Whether Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, your office platform is key to identity, email and documents. Your business doesn’t run without it. We routinely test both platforms to varying levels of detail.
Client need
One ongoing customer is a growing university spin-off, who have some IT and cyber security support but had never had any third-party testing or assurance. The logical place to start with assurance is Microsoft 365, as it contains all emails and documents for the whole company, and is central to all their online applications.
What we did
We completed a review of their Microsoft 365 configuration using our custom approach, which draws from industry-standard security guidance and our own experience with lots of customers. It covers key areas such as accounts and authentication, applications, email configuration, SharePoint and Teams.
Client benefit
The result is a locked-down Microsoft 365 tenant, which supports their business needs but doesn’t introduce any unknown risks to their business.
