Data security as a service

Ongoing data security for Microsoft 365.

With people working from home, the office and everywhere in between, keeping data secure takes more than a one-off review. We report on where you stand, agree a roadmap with you and help you put the controls in place, using Microsoft Purview, information rights management and encryption.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

What is included in data security as a service?

An initial report on your position, incident reporting, a roadmap for regulatory requirements and regular compliance score reviews, plus help putting the recommended controls in place.

Do we need Microsoft Purview?

Purview is where a lot of the controls live, including records management, retention labels and data loss prevention. We check which parts your licences already include before recommending anything extra.

Can you help with GDPR?

Yes. Access controls, retention, audit logs and data loss prevention all support GDPR obligations, and we can review how your current setup measures up.

Does this cover email and Teams?

Yes. Alongside SharePoint we look at email encryption in Outlook, including digital certificates where needed, and the security and compliance features in Teams.
