Microsoft 365 security

Microsoft 365, secured and looked after.

Your email, files and accounts live in Microsoft 365, so that is where attackers aim. As a Microsoft Partner, we protect it, watch it around the clock and deal with problems before they reach your data or your clients’ data.

What we cover

Every way in, covered.

Accounts

Sign-ins are monitored for signs of compromise, such as a login from an unexpected location or unusual behaviour. If something looks wrong we lock the account and investigate.

Every plan

Email

Every message sent and received is scanned for phishing, malware and scams, including emails pretending to be your colleagues, suppliers or clients.

Every plan

Your data

Sensitive files in Microsoft 365 are watched for misuse, so data leaving the business in ways it shouldn’t is spotted.

Every plan

Your domain

We set up and monitor email domain protection so only your approved services can send as you, and report every impersonation attempt.

Basic and above

Settings

Microsoft 365 and Azure are configured securely and checked against an agreed baseline, so settings don’t quietly drift.

Ultimate, or add to any plan

Backup

Email and files are backed up independently of Microsoft, so we can restore what you need after deletion, a fault or an attack.

Why it matters

A stolen password is the usual way in.

In the UK Government’s latest Cyber Security Breaches Survey, phishing was by far the most common attack, affecting 38% of businesses. Protecting accounts and email is where Guardian starts.
