Microsoft 365 Security is a SEQRED service covering microsoft 365 tenant audit, takeover and security hardening. entra id, defender, intune, purview.

Implementation & Management

Over 80% of Microsoft 365 tenants score below 50% on Secure Score. Tenants grow organically: administrators change, users and applications are added, and nobody reviews policies. Security mechanisms are available but without thoughtful configuration they don't protect. Missing break-glass accounts, unsynchronized service accounts, policies stuck in Report-only mode that were never enforced - these are typical issues we find. We help organize the tenant and systematically raise the level of protection.

FAQ

What M365 licence do we need? +

It depends on your needs - often Business Premium or Standard with the right add-ons is sufficient. Selecting the optimal licence set is part of our deployment process.

What is Zero Trust? +

Zero Trust is a security model where no sign-in or device is trusted by default. Every access request is verified based on identity, location, device state, and context.

How long does the deployment take? +

A typical deployment takes 6 to 12 weeks. The scope depends on the organisation's size, number of devices, and current configuration state.

Will the deployment affect users' daily work? +

We plan the deployment to minimise impact on daily operations. Policies are rolled out in stages, with a pilot group first.

Do you offer ongoing support after deployment? +

Yes - we offer support on a retainer basis: configuration monitoring, policy updates, responding to new threats and environmental changes.

How does SEQRED price its services? +

Pricing is based on an individual estimate of our consultants' time, considering the project scope and complexity. We present the offer broken down by phases - so you see exactly what you're paying for and can make decisions at each stage.

Yes - an initial consultation is always welcome and free of charge. We help define the actual scope of your needs, which allows us to prepare a rational offer tailored to your organization.

What affects the cost of a Microsoft 365 security project? +

Key factors include the number of users and devices, tenant complexity, and the scope of tools to be configured - Entra ID, Defender, Intune, Autopilot, Purview. We help match the scope to your existing licenses.
