For small and mid-sized organizations
Microsoft 365 Business Premium is more than email and Office.
Your subscription may already provide meaningful identity, device, endpoint, email, and data security capabilities. We assess what is available, configure the right controls, and help operate them over time.
Exact capabilities depend on the customer’s Microsoft plan and licensing. Advanced capabilities may require additional Microsoft licensing or Azure consumption.

Microsoft Security FAQ
Before you begin.
01Do we need to replace our current security tools?
Not necessarily. We first assess what Microsoft can cover well, where current tools add value, and where integration or consolidation is appropriate.
02Is Microsoft Sentinel included with Microsoft 365 Business Premium?
Sentinel is an additional SIEM and SOAR platform whose architecture, data ingestion, retention, and Azure consumption should be designed for the customer’s environment.
03Are all Purview, Entra, and Defender capabilities included in our license?
No. Availability varies by plan, add-on, and service. We validate entitlements before recommending a design or control.
04Can APT Zero operate the environment after implementation?
Yes. Managed Microsoft Security provides recurring oversight, while GlobalSOC can extend the model with 24/7 monitoring and response when required.
