Protect your Microsoft 365 Environment

More and more businesses are putting their data whether it is emails, files and other sensitive business data onto the Microsoft 365 Cloud environment. You might ask yourself ‘why’ if you haven’t already adopted it, but the benefits are huge. Collaboration on documents, sharing of data with colleagues outside of the organisation, the list is huge.

However if you don’t protect that environment then you could open yourself up to potential problems. The first step in protecting your information is to enable MFA (multi-factor authentication) as Microsoft call it, but others call it 2FA. If you haven’t got this enabled then you need to address that now.

However as the following image from one of our security suppliers shows you might not realise these hackers have actually gained access to your account! We have seen it countless times now where email-forwarding or rules to move emails to folders have been setup without the users knowledge. These rules have allowed the hacker to intercept emails and reply to the sender giving things like fake bank details for invoice payments or property purchases.

Having proactive threat monitoring and early breach detection deployed on your Microsoft 365 service gives peace of mind that you are protected.

Fortunately there are now services to properly protect your environment, which allow you to rest easy knowing your identities are guarded 24/7.
