Microsoft 365 security audit

Microsoft 365 security is not a single score. It is the combined effect of identity controls, admin discipline, data handling and day-to-day operating choices.

What changes

Leadership gets a clearer basis for action.

  • A clear view of material exposure and control gaps
  • Prioritised actions based on business impact
  • An executive summary that avoids platform jargon
  • A practical handover for your internal team or IT provider

Identity and access

Review multifactor authentication, conditional access, authentication methods, guest access and account lifecycle controls.

Privileged administration

Assess administrative roles, separation of duties, emergency access and the everyday use of privileged accounts.

Email and collaboration

Examine anti-phishing controls, mailbox protection, external sharing and collaboration settings that influence data exposure.

Governance and evidence

Review logging, alerting, ownership and the operating practices that determine whether controls remain effective.

How we work

A direct route from uncertainty to accountable action.

  1. 01

    Confirm scope

    Agree the tenant, business context, regulatory concerns and access approach before evidence collection begins.

  2. 02

    Assess and validate

    Review configuration and operating evidence, then distinguish meaningful exposure from low-value configuration noise.

  3. 03

    Prioritise remediation

    Present findings in an executive workshop and provide a sequenced action plan for the people responsible.

Working principles

Clear about what you are buying.

  • Read-only evidence wherever practical
  • No licence resale or migration agenda
  • Findings explained in business terms
  • Remediation can remain with your existing IT provider
