Free Microsoft 365 Security Audit

Microsoft 365 is the number one Email and productivity platform for businesses of all sizes, and an extremely appealing target for attackers!

If your business is using Microsoft Office 365, TDR Computers are pleased to now offer any business, for FREE, an “eight-point Security Audit” of your Microsoft 365 installation which will flag any potential security vulnerabilities.

We will also provide you with a free report post audit. This has a simple traffic light system to help quickly identify where your security needs attention.

“The main concern for all businesses when moving their data and services to the Cloud is security.”

Our 8 Point Check includes:

Email Security 

To identify if your mailboxes are lacking sufficient protection and if they are at risk for Phishing, Malware attacks or other types of Social fraud. As clever as Microsoft 365 is, it cannot do everything perfectly! Basic Spam filtering just does not cut the mustard these days and a layered approach to security should be taken. The latest Advanced Threat Protection is a must.

Encryption

Does your configuration have the capability of encrypting confidential information enabled or protected by a 3rd party application. A lack of Email encryption isn’t necessarily a vulnerability. However, do you transmit sensitive data? This can lead to complications should emails be intercepted or forwarded into the wrong hands.

Web Protection

we check if you have sufficient Web Protection in place to monitor inbound and outbound traffic for suspicious activity. Suspicious web traffic can often be a sign of a compromised system. Data could be being syphoned out of the business. Your machines may be used as a “Node” for hackers to compromise other systems – internally or externally.

Admin Account Summary

Our audit will analyse what administrator accounts exist in your Microsoft 365 installation and the roles and users assigned. Best practice is to NOT use your user account for “Global” administration rights, especially if Multi-Factor Authentication is not enforced.

User Report

System users are one of your main vulnerabilities and most breaches or cyberattacks begin here. We identify your active user accounts. We check how secure their access is by reporting on password policy and the use of Multi-Factor Authentication*

Mailbox Report

How many Active/Inactive mailboxes do you have? We audit and report a list of mailboxes, the type and when last accessed and who has access. We identify if basic or advanced auditing is enabled which help monitor mailboxes for suspicious activity and prevent malicious actors.

Forwarding Rules 

One method of identifying if a mailbox has been compromised is to review any forwarding rules which have been set up. These rules could be forwarding business email out of your company to hackers or even to employee’s personal accounts. This can often be done out of convenience if not maliciously. Suspicious or risky rules can be evaluated and disabled immediately if required.

Inbox Rules Summary 

A common tactic used by Cyber Attackers, inbox rules to “Delete”, “Move” or “Forward” help to cover up suspicious activity and avoid detection. Our audit will identify ALL Inbox rules currently configured and a description of the rule function. This will enable you to quickly analyse the intended purposes and take mitigating action if required.
