Microsoft 365 is trusted by organisations large and small for their day to day operations. Email, data storage, document exchange, customer and company critical information are all entrusted to 365 for safe keeping.

Communicating cyber security risk to the board can be a key function of senior security roles. While cyber risk oversight is a function of the board, be it fully or partially shared with internal teams such as the audit committee, the implementation, actual operation and management of the security program is not their responsibility
Microsoft has been pushing browser-based Microsoft 365 cloud for all office functions. However, their desktop office applications are just as popular as ever – especially Word, Excel and PowerPoint. Which is great news for cyber criminals as the end user workstation is a prime target for attack and often an overlooked link in any cyber security strategy.
In our experience, security is often something that is begrudged as taking time and budget from development and customer experience.
