The Value of Microsoft 365 Security Monitoring

  • If you’re one of the millions of businesses using Microsoft® 365 you need to think seriously about security monitoring for your Microsoft® 365 tenancy.
  • Your staff working remotely or from home are vulnerable. You can’t monitor their network when they are working away from the office.
  • It’s relatively easy for cybercriminals to gain access to your Microsoft® 365 tenancy in the same way that they can gain access to your office network.
  • Because Microsoft® 365 is cloud-based, it’s more difficult for you to even know there’s been a breach!
  • You need a way of ensuring the safety of your information even for employees working from home or remotely.

If you are using Microsoft 365 within your organization and are looking to secure your environment, then look no further for Microsoft 365 Security Monitoring.  

Employees working from home:- It is very difficult to monitor devices which aren’t on the company premises. With our Microsoft 365 and Azure Active Directory monitoring, these devices are also included. No more devices outside the network are missed out.

User Behavior:- More data means more knowledge, which is what it’s all about. When Bluedog sees your internal network data as well as the Microsoft 365 usage, the data scientists inside the Bluedog SOC correlate user behavior to identify abnormal behavior. This is the kind of information that truly identifies attackers are inside an organization. When a cloud account is breached, anti-virus solutions or internal solutions like firewalls won’t be triggered. The Bluedog SOC will spot the attacker as they navigate their way across the network. An unusual login location or lateral movement across the network to find and exfiltrate files is what stands out.

Cloud Abuse is being detected:- Having your Active Directory in the cloud has many benefits, but attackers can also abuse this ease of access. User credentials are being leaked and stolen every day, with attackers abusing these stolen credentials and trying to log into your organization remotely. With Bluedog Microsoft 365 security monitoring, these login attempts or actual break-ins are being detected and immediately acted on. No more data exfiltration breaches will happen through your Microsoft Office 365 or Azure Active Directory (AD) Environments.
