We can assist you with the set-up of your platform, ensuring that it is fully optimised to suit your business needs and you are benefiting from all of the features it has to offer.

There is an extensive suite of tools available on M365 which can be highly beneficial in increasing your organisation’s productivity, however it can be difficult to know which ones will provide you with real value.

Our Microsoft 365 Managed Security provides an additional layer of security that protects your organisation from the most common weaknesses in network infrastructure. Our solutions are proven to increase your Microsoft ‘Secure Score’ and provide you with security that is significantly above the industry average benchmarks and KPIs.

  • We will liaise with Microsoft directly on your behalf for any security issues that occur with Office 365

Microsoft provides powerful services within Office 365 – but a comprehensive backup of your Office 365 data is not one of them. Of over 1,000 IT Pros surveyed, 81% experienced data loss in Office 365 – from simple user error to major data security threats.

Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 eliminates the risk of losing access and control over your Office 365 data including Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, OneDrive for Business and Microsoft Teams – so that your data is always protected and accessible.

Why Backup Microsoft 365?

Microsoft 365 enables your enterprise to work anywhere, anytime, without the need to host your own email, files and SharePoint infrastructure. Even though Microsoft hosts the infrastructure, this doesn’t replace your responsibility to backup business-critical Office 365 data.

With Microsoft 365, it’s your data — you control it — and it is your responsibility to protect it.

Did you know that 60% of sensitive cloud data is stored in Office documents, and 75% is NOT backed up? Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 gives you the power to securely backup Office 365 to any location, including on premises, a hyperscale cloud, or a service provider and:

  • Protect your Microsoft 365 data from accidental deletion, security threats and retention policy gaps
  • Quickly restore individual Office 365 email, files and sites with industry-leading recovery flexibility
  • Meet legal and compliance requirements with efficient eDiscovery of Office 365 items

Safeguard your company, data and reputation

Configuration Review:

  • Analyse your organisation’s Microsoft 365 security, based on existing settings and the regular activities of users.
  • See how well aligned your organisation is with security best practice.

Detect Compromised Accounts & Apps:

  • Password re-use and brute forcing is one of the most common ways user accounts are compromised.
  • Identify the accounts and add-on apps that are most at risk.

User & File Permissions:

  • Find users with the incorrect system access controls.
  • Review excessive permissions in your Azure AD environments to help determine configuration weaknesses and provide advice to mitigate this risk.

Although Microsoft offers two levels of Office 365 email security- Exchange Online Protection (EOP) and Advanced Threat Protection (ATP), neither offers true enterprise level security, leaving organisations open to a number of security concerns. To overcome these vulnerabilities, businesses can opt for EBC Group’s additional security solutions that enhance the security of the Microsoft platform and improves Office 365 email security concerns.

EBC Group are recommending that clients implement an additional level of security to protect themselves against security breaches. Without this layer additional layer of security EBC will not liable in the event of a security breach.

Microsoft have created a new security analytics tool for Office 365, named Secure Score to help keep your cloud environment safe. The tool analyses your Office 365 environment in terms of how secure it is and suggests refinements that can be taken to further reduce your overall risk.

Giving a numerical security score which can be compared to the industry average scores and also the action that can be taken to ensure your cloud environment is secure and lessen the chances of being hacked or suffering from a data breach.
EBC Group can provide a managed service, which will prioritise actions which will have the most impact on your users. Through these actions we’ll improve your current security score and ensure its significantly above the industry average.
