Defend 365 gives organizations complete control over Microsoft 365 security.
It continuously scans your tenant against CIS, CISA, Microsoft Security best practices, and two exclusive frameworks:

• Golden Baseline: built by Microsoft MVPs and elite security experts, setting the highest standard of protection.

• Essential Baseline: a prioritized set of must-fix checks so you can focus on what matters most first.

Together, they deliver a smarter and more effective path to hardening your Microsoft 365 environment. Over 300 automated checks run daily, detecting misconfigurations and closing security gaps before they turn into risks.

Unlike one-off audits, Defend 365 runs 24/7. It alerts you when settings drift back to unsafe defaults, explains the impact, and provides step-by-step guidance to remediate issues. Audit-ready reports make it simple to prove compliance with CIS, CISA, NIS2, and internal governance.

The built-in AI Security Intelligence Assistant (SIA) adds another layer of power: it explains complex configurations in plain language, helps prioritize remediation, and accelerates fixes across your tenant.

Who benefits: Any organization on Microsoft 365 that wants stronger protection, less manual guesswork, and clear compliance evidence.

What Defend 365 delivers:

• Continuous detection of weak or unsafe settings

• Drift monitoring with alerts and full history

• Clear remediation guidance with proven best practices

• Compliance reporting for CIS, CISA, Microsoft baselines, and NIS2

• Executive-level insight and audit-ready proof

• AI-powered support through SIA for faster understanding and resolution

With Defend 365, you stay secure, compliant, and in control — without endless manual checks or heavy security overhead.
