Microsoft 365 and Azure Security

The MSAdvance Security & Compliance service protects identities, devices, applications, and data in Microsoft Cloud with a Zero Trust approach. We enable Entra ID with MFA and Conditional Access, strengthen defense with Microsoft Defender (XDR/for Cloud), and govern information with Purview through DLP, labeling, and retention. This ensures that only the right users gain access, from the right devices, under controlled risk—while sensitive data remains classified and auditable.

Designed for organizations aiming to reduce attack surface, accelerate detection and response, and simplify audits. We design consistent, automated policies with centralized visibility for fast, evidence-based decisions.

What We Implement in Security & Compliance (Microsoft Cloud)

Microsoft Entra ID (Identity & Access)

We implement MFA, Conditional Access, and PIM (just-in-time privileges) to ensure only the right users access from trusted devices and under controlled risk. We design role- and location-based policies and consolidate identities for simplified audits.

Microsoft Defender XDR (Unified Protection)

We deploy end-to-end detection and response across email, endpoints, identities, and SaaS apps. Automated response playbooks orchestrate actions (isolate devices, revoke sessions, block attachments), reducing mean detection and containment time.

Microsoft Defender for Cloud (Azure & Multicloud Posture)

We configure CSPM/CWPP aligned with CIS and Azure Security Benchmark. We close configuration gaps across VMs, containers, and PaaS, apply guided recommendations, and enable preventive controls at scale.

Microsoft Sentinel (Cloud-Native SIEM/SOAR)

We integrate security sources, create analytic rules, and automate playbooks to accelerate response. We enable UEBA and third-party connectors for a 360º risk view and fewer false positives.

Microsoft Purview (Data Governance & Compliance)

We enable automatic classification, sensitivity labels, and DLP across email, Teams, SharePoint, and endpoints. We configure retention, eDiscovery, and Insider Risk to protect the data lifecycle and simplify audits.

Microsoft Intune (Device Compliance & Management)

We apply encryption, compliance, and update policies on Windows, iOS/iPadOS, and Android. We separate corporate and personal data (BYOD) and integrate with Conditional Access to block non-compliant devices.

In one sentence: At MSAdvance, we design, implement, and operate a Security & Compliance framework based on Zero Trust with Entra ID, Defender XDR/for Cloud, Sentinel, Purview, and Intune—reducing real risk without slowing productivity.

Microsoft 365 security and compliance

Identity and Access Management (Microsoft Entra ID)

We protect access to your applications and data by applying Zero Trust from the identity layer. We design policies that balance security and user experience—ensuring that only the right people gain access, from the right device, under the right context.

  • MFA and Conditional Access based on risk, location, device, and resource sensitivity.
  • PIM (just-in-time privileged access) and RBAC to enforce true least privilege.
  • Identity protection (compromised credential detection and enforced secure password resets).
  • Lifecycle governance: automatic provisioning, access recertification, and continuous auditing.

Microsoft Defender XDR Threat Protection

We unify signals from endpoints, identities, email, and SaaS apps to detect and contain attacks before they impact the business. Response is automated to reduce containment time and ease the burden on IT and security teams.

  • Prevention policies, EDR, and device isolation.
  • Anti-phishing and Defender for Office 365 (safe links/attachments).
  • Behavior-based detection and remediation playbooks (revoke tokens, block files, terminate sessions).
  • Risk dashboards and prioritization based on business impact.

Azure Security Posture (Defender for Cloud + Azure Policy)

We harden your cloud with a consistent and verifiable security posture. The environment is aligned with CIS and the Azure Benchmark, with policies that automatically remediate deviations.

  • Secure Score as a continuous improvement metric.
  • Azure Policy to deny insecure configurations and enforce a security baseline.
  • Recommendations and hardening of PaaS/IaaS (VMs, networks, containers, databases).
  • Integration with Defender for Cloud for prioritized alerts and multicloud coverage when applicable.

Microsoft Purview Data Governance & DLP

We classify and protect sensitive information wherever it resides: Microsoft 365, SharePoint/OneDrive, Teams, endpoints, and Azure. Security travels with the data.

  • Sensitivity labels with encryption and persistent access controls.
  • DLP to prevent data leaks (email, Teams, devices, endpoints).
  • Retention, eDiscovery, audit logs, and segregation by jurisdiction/region.
  • Data catalog, lineage, and access policies in Purview to streamline audits.

Microsoft Sentinel SIEM/SOAR & Incident Response

We centralize detection and response with a cloud-native SIEM and automations that reduce MTTR.

  • Pre-built connectors for M365, Entra ID, Defender, Azure, firewalls, and SaaS.
  • Analytic rules and UEBA to detect anomalous behaviors.
  • Playbooks (Logic Apps) for containment, notification, and cross-team orchestration.
  • Dashboards, industry-specific use cases, and executive reporting.

Microsoft Cloud Compliance & Audit (GDPR, ISO 27001, ENS)

We translate regulatory requirements into technical and operational controls within Microsoft Cloud, with evidence ready for inspection.

  • Control and gap mapping; prioritized remediation plan.
  • Policies and records for GDPR, ISO 27001, ENS, and industry-specific frameworks.
  • Automated evidence (logs, retention, labels, permissions, changes).
  • Training, awareness, and periodic compliance reviews.

Assessment & Analysis

We perform a Security & Compliance Assessment in Microsoft Cloud to understand the real state of your organization. We evaluate identities, devices, applications, and data with a Zero Trust approach, identifying gaps and improvement opportunities with direct impact on risk and cost.

  • Review of Entra ID: MFA, Conditional Access, roles, PIM, and effective privileges.
  • Security posture with Secure Score, Defender XDR, and Defender for Cloud (CIS / Azure Benchmark).
  • Data governance with Microsoft Purview: sensitivity labels, DLP, retention, and auditing.
  • Telemetry and coverage in Microsoft Sentinel: connectors, analytic rules, and alert quality.
  • Prioritized risk map and quick wins for immediate attack surface reduction.

Architecture Planning & Design

We define a Security & Compliance blueprint aligned with your objectives and regulations (GDPR, ISO 27001, ENS). We design layered controls, operational processes, and metrics to ensure security is consistent, auditable, and sustainable.

  • Zero Trust architecture: segmentation by sensitivity, least privilege, and risk-based adaptive controls.
  • Conditional Access policies, strong authentication, privileged identity management, and RBAC.
  • Catalog of sensitivity labels, DLP rules, and retention by business area and jurisdiction.
  • SIEM/SOAR model with Microsoft Sentinel: use cases, rules, playbooks, and response workflows.
  • Security KPIs/OKRs (MTTD/MTTR, MFA coverage, policy compliance) and an adoption/training roadmap.

Implementation & Validation

We implement controls iteratively and in a measurable way. We enable advanced protection, data governance, and observability, verifying effectiveness with technical and operational tests before scaling across the entire organization.

  • Deployment of MFA, Conditional Access, PIM, and role reviews in Entra ID.
  • Activation of Defender XDR and Defender for Cloud with prevention policies, EDR, and recommended hardening.
  • Configuration of Purview: sensitivity labels, DLP, eDiscovery, retention, and audit logs.
  • Microsoft Sentinel: connectors, analytic rules, playbooks (Logic Apps), and prioritized use cases.
  • Validation: UAT security tests, attack simulations (phishing/credential leak), hardening, and fine-tuning.
  • Operations: response runbooks, executive dashboards, and continuous improvement based on metrics (MTTD/MTTR, Secure Score).
