M365 & Security
Security
Security, governance, compliance, risk management, and security operations run as one control model rather than seven separate consoles.
One control model across five concerns: security across identity, endpoints, email, and data; governance of privileged access and tenant policy; compliance with the standards and regulations your organisation answers to; risk management that closes the most expensive gaps first; and security operations that monitor, detect, and respond. Microsoft Defender, Microsoft Entra ID, Microsoft Intune, Microsoft Purview, and Microsoft Sentinel are configured as one operating chain, with audit evidence produced from the tenant's own data rather than screenshots collected by hand.
