Most M365 tenants have critical security gaps that their IT team doesn't know about. Our structured security assessment tells you exactly where you're exposed, and gives you a prioritised roadmap to fix it
These are the findings that come up in almost every M365 security assessment we conduct. Security gaps in Microsoft 365 are silent until they're catastrophic. An assessment is the only way to know what you're actually dealing with.
MFA Not Enforced for All Users
One compromised password can give an attacker full access to a user's Microsoft 365 account.
Legacy Authentication Still Enabled
Outdated authentication protocols can bypass modern security controls, leaving accounts vulnerable to attacks
Former Staff Accounts Still Active
Former employees may still have access to email, SharePoint, and sensitive business documents.
Unrestricted External Sharing
Guest access and external sharing in SharePoint and Teams may expose sensitive company information.
Missing Conditional Access Policies
Without properly configured policies, users can sign in from anywhere, on any device, increasing security risks.
Security Threats Going Undetected
Inadequate monitoring and alerting can allow suspicious activity and potential security breaches to go unnoticed
A comprehensive review of every security layer in your M365 environment, from identity to data protection.
Identity & Access Review
We assess MFA coverage, admin role assignments, privileged identity management, and account lifecycle hygiene. Identity is the front door. We check if it's locked.
Secure Score Analysis
Full review of your current Microsoft Secure Score with prioritised recommendations ranked by security impact and implementation effort.
Conditional Access Assessment
We review your conditional access policies, or identify where they're missing. Conditional access is one of the highest-impact controls in M365 and one of the most commonly absent.
Email Security Review
Assessment of your anti-phishing, anti-spam, DKIM, DMARC, and SPF configuration. Email is the primary attack vector for Australian businesses. We make sure your defences are properly configured.
Data & Sharing Governance Review
We assess SharePoint and OneDrive external sharing settings, Teams guest access, sensitivity labels, and DLP policies to identify where your data is exposed.
Threat Detection & Alerting Review
Review of your Defender for Office 365 configuration, alert policies, and incident response capability. We assess whether your environment would detect an attack in progress.
A security assessment is only valuable if the findings are clear, actionable, and delivered by people who can help you fix them. Local support from our Brisbane and Canberra offices.

Straight answers to common questions about our Microsoft 365 Security Assessment Services so you can make confident decisions for your business.
The assessment covers identity and access management, Secure Score analysis, conditional access policies, email security configuration, data and sharing governance, threat detection and alerting, and compliance and retention posture. You receive a full findings report and prioritised remediation roadmap.
The technical assessment typically completes within 3–5 business days. Findings are delivered within 5–7 business days from access being established, followed by a live debrief session. The process is designed to be non-disruptive to your team.
Standard IT support maintains your M365 environment day to day. A security assessment is a structured, point-in-time review that identifies security gaps, misconfigurations, and risks that ongoing support doesn't systematically surface. It's a diagnostic, not ongoing management.
The assessment identifies exactly which actions will improve your Secure Score and by how much. Following the remediation roadmap will result in measurable Secure Score improvement. Many clients see significant gains from the first wave of remediation alone.
Yes. Every assessment includes a prioritised remediation roadmap with risk ratings, recommended actions, and estimated implementation effort for each finding. If you'd like Technowand to implement the remediation, we can scope that as a follow-on engagement.
