Microsoft Security Solutions

Secure your business with Microsoft's integrated security ecosystem

Cyber threats are evolving faster than ever, and businesses need more than disconnected tools to stay protected. ParagonIT helps organisations strengthen their security posture with Microsoft's integrated security platform — bringing together identity, endpoint protection, email security, cloud app visibility, data protection, and threat detection in one connected ecosystem.

What We Deliver

Six security pillars — addressed as one connected whole

Microsoft Security is not a single product — it is an integrated ecosystem. We help businesses implement the right combination of controls across every pillar that matters.

Identity & Access Security

Identity is now one of the most important control points in modern cybersecurity. We help secure user access with Microsoft Entra — implementing stronger authentication, Conditional Access, role-based controls, and identity governance measures to reduce the risk of unauthorised access and credential compromise.

Endpoint Protection & Device Security

ParagonIT deploys and manages Microsoft Defender and Microsoft Intune-based security controls to help protect endpoints, enforce device compliance, and strengthen your ability to detect and respond to suspicious activity across your environment.

Email & Collaboration Security

Email remains one of the biggest entry points for cyberattacks. We help protect Microsoft 365 environments against phishing, malware, spoofing, and business email compromise with layered security controls, policy configuration, and continuous monitoring across Exchange Online, Teams, OneDrive, and SharePoint.

Threat Detection & Response

When threats do get through, fast detection and action matter. ParagonIT helps businesses improve visibility and response capability using Microsoft Sentinel and the wider Microsoft Security ecosystem to support threat detection, investigation, hunting, and response.

Data Protection & Compliance

Protecting business data is just as important as securing endpoints and identities. We help configure Microsoft data protection and governance controls to support information protection, data loss prevention, retention, and compliance-focused security policies across Microsoft 365 environments.

Security Monitoring & Managed Protection

Technology alone is not enough. ParagonIT provides ongoing monitoring, optimisation, reporting, and advisory support to help you get more value from your Microsoft security investment — from baseline hardening through to advanced detection and response maturity.

The Threat Landscape

The threat environment is growing more complex — and more targeted

Organisations that rely on disconnected security tools, incomplete access controls, and unmonitored environments are increasingly exposed. Microsoft Security addresses this by building protection across every attack vector — not just one.

Common Questions

Microsoft Security questions, answered directly.

Plain answers to what we hear most from businesses exploring Microsoft Security for the first time — or those looking to improve what they already have in place.

What is Microsoft Security?

Microsoft Security refers to Microsoft's portfolio of security, identity, compliance, and management technologies — including solutions such as Microsoft Defender, Microsoft Sentinel, Microsoft Entra, Intune, and Purview. These technologies are designed to work together across users, devices, applications, data, and infrastructure.

Is Microsoft Security suitable for small and mid-sized businesses?

Yes. Microsoft offers security capabilities that can scale from SMB environments through to large enterprises — including solutions aligned to Microsoft 365 business plans and more advanced security platforms for larger or more complex environments. We tailor recommendations to your current size, risk profile, and budget.

What is Microsoft Sentinel?

Microsoft Sentinel is Microsoft's cloud-native SIEM and security operations platform — designed to deliver threat detection, investigation, hunting, and response across cloud and hybrid environments. It aggregates signals from across your environment and applies AI to surface meaningful alerts.

Can ParagonIT manage our Microsoft Security environment?

Yes. ParagonIT can design, deploy, optimise, and support your Microsoft Security environment — whether you need foundational protections, advanced monitoring, or ongoing managed security services. We work with your team to build the right level of coverage for your risk profile.

Do we need multiple Microsoft products to get full protection?

Most businesses benefit from a layered approach that combines identity, endpoint, email, device, and monitoring controls. The right mix depends on your size, existing licensing, compliance needs, and risk profile. We help you make those decisions without overcomplicating or overinvesting.

Where should we start if our security posture is weak?

We always recommend starting with a structured Microsoft Security assessment. This gives us a clear picture of your current configuration, gaps, and risk exposure. From there, we build a prioritised improvement roadmap that addresses the highest risks first — typically beginning with identity, MFA, and email security.

How does Microsoft Security differ from our existing antivirus?

Traditional antivirus covers a single layer — endpoint malware detection. Microsoft Security covers the full attack surface: identity, email, endpoint, cloud apps, data, and infrastructure — all connected through shared intelligence. This means threats are detected and correlated across your environment, not just at the device level.
