Securing and Hardening of your Microsoft 365 Environment
Securing and Hardening of your Microsoft 365 Environment is a focused Microsoft 365 security engagement: IT Partner reviews how well you are using the security controls already…
Free Microsoft 365 Security Assessment is a 3-day service for organizations with a Microsoft 365 tenant used in production. IT Partner connects to the tenant and uses tools such as Secure Score, Microsoft Entra ID, and PowerShell to create a security report that reflects the current security state and includes a prioritized list of recommendations to increase data security, control, protection, and Secure Score. The assessment also includes a quote if the client would like IT Partner to work on tenant hardening.

Small- and medium-sized businesses face many of the same cyberattacks and data-regulation pressures as larger companies, often without the same IT department or budget. Users face threats such as credential theft, malware, phishing, and infrastructure attacks. Cloud-migrated organizations can be especially vulnerable because documents, historic emails, and company information may be available at any time, from any device, and from any place. This assessment helps the client evaluate the current security state of its Microsoft 365 tenant and identify high-priority security concerns. IT Partner collects and analyzes Microsoft 365 tenant data using tools such as Secure Score, Microsoft Entra ID, and PowerShell, then provides a security report with prioritized recommendations. Some platform security capabilities are free, such as a basic level of MFA, while some may require an additional license.
Introduce the team, confirm scope, and schedule temporary global admin access.

Walk through the report, vulnerabilities, roadmap, and optional hardening quote together.
The Free Microsoft 365 Security Assessment is a 3-day service for organizations using a Microsoft 365 tenant in production. IT Partner connects to the tenant and uses Microsoft 365 security data, including tools such as Secure Score, Microsoft Entra ID, and PowerShell, to assess the current security state and produce prioritized recommendations.
This assessment is designed for small and medium-sized organizations that use Microsoft 365 in production and want to understand their tenant’s security posture. It is especially relevant for businesses concerned about credential theft, phishing, malware, cloud access risks, and Microsoft 365 data protection.
You will receive a security report based on Microsoft 365 data collection and analysis, a prioritized list of potential vulnerabilities, recommendations to increase protection and Secure Score, and an actionable security roadmap. The deliverables also include a quote for IT Partner’s services if you want help implementing tenant hardening.
The listed project duration is 3 days. Within that window, the hands-on assessment work is compact — a kickoff, data collection and analysis in your tenant, and a closing meeting to review the deliverables.
You must have a Microsoft 365 tenant used in a production environment. You must also be able to provide temporary access with global admin permissions so IT Partner can collect and analyze the tenant security data required for the assessment.
Global admin access is required because the assessment reviews Microsoft 365 tenant security settings and data that may not be visible with lower-permission roles. The client is responsible for setting up temporary global admin access for the engagement.
No, tenant hardening and implementation of recommended changes are not included in the assessment scope. The service provides findings, recommendations, an actionable roadmap, and a quote if you would like IT Partner to perform the hardening work afterward.
The assessment does not include initial setup or configuration of Microsoft 365 services. It also does not include gathering or assessing data outside the Microsoft 365 tenant, such as desktop computers, servers, or active networking equipment.
Yes — the assessment is provided free of charge to IT Partner clients. Follow-on tenant hardening work is separate and is quoted after the assessment.
Microsoft Secure Score is used as one of the tools to evaluate the tenant’s security posture. The assessment includes your current Secure Score-related findings and recommendations intended to increase protection and improve Secure Score where appropriate.
The client must provide a dedicated point of contact to work with IT Partner, coordinate any outside vendor resources or schedules if needed, and set up temporary global admin access. These responsibilities help IT Partner complete the data collection, analysis, and deliverable review efficiently within the planned engagement.
After the assessment, IT Partner reviews the deliverables with you, including the security report, prioritized vulnerabilities, recommendations, and actionable roadmap. If you want IT Partner to implement the recommended hardening, the assessment includes a quote for those follow-on services.
