Secure working with Microsoft 365

Microsoft 365 provides comprehensive protection features and management capabilities to address the challenges of modern IT security. Here is an overview of its benefits:

  • Ensures that only authorized users and devices can access company resources.
  • Automatic response to suspicious activities on all endpoints and servers.
  • Identification and classification of security risks.

Protection Against Credential and Token Phishing with Microsoft Entra ID

Microsoft Entra ID provides effective measures against the most commonly exploited attack vector and the biggest risk for initial access in networks: credential and token phishing. Its identity protection features and conditional access ensure that only verified and authorized users with company devices can access business applications. These measures effectively block potential attackers, even if login credentials have been compromised. A Bitkom study indicates that such attacks pose a significant threat to a large portion of German companies, underscoring the necessity of these protective mechanisms.

Centralized management and protection of all company devices with Microsoft Intune

Intune provides a comprehensive solution for the centralized management and protection of all company devices. The main benefits include:

  • Centralized management:

    Easy control and monitoring of mobile devices and desktops for the implementation and enforcement of security policies, as well as the management of company apps.

  • Automated device provisioning:

    Quick and standardized provisioning of Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android devices for efficient deployment and reduced administrative effort.

  • Protection of the sign-in process:

    Verification of device compliance status as a prerequisite for secure access to company resources, preventing unauthorized logins.

Comprehensive protection with Microsoft Defender XDR

Defender XDR combines multiple Microsoft security solutions into a comprehensive protection platform:

  • Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (MDE): Detects and defends against threats on endpoints.

  • Microsoft Defender for Identity (MDI): Analyzes login behavior and activities within the local Active Directory.

  • Microsoft Defender for Office 365 (MDO): Protects against phishing, malware, and malicious links or attachments in emails.

  • Microsoft Defender for Cloud (MDC): Secures multi-cloud environments.

The main advantage of Microsoft Defender XDR lies in the seamless integration of various security tools. With a shared data foundation, the analysis data from all tools can be combined and checked for anomalies, significantly enhancing the detection of complex attacks and malicious activities—without the need to manage multiple isolated solutions.

Unlike traditional multi-vendor strategies, where different security applications run independently, Defender XDR provides a unified security view while reducing both costs and administrative efforts. Multi-vendor approaches often result in a complex IT landscape with high costs, where systems do not communicate with each other and interpret the security status differently.
