Validate Settings

(Back)

Objective

Use built-in tools to validate the security configuration and settings for O365 and apply recommendations as appropriate to improve security posture. Ensure that there is a consistent level of protection across GC data, identities, and devices.

Key Considerations

• Validate that the recommended identity and device access configurations have been implemented
• Use Microsoft Secure Score to measure the current state of the O365 configuration and security posture. A higher number indicates that more improvement actions need to be taken.
• Compare current state posture with benchmarks and establish key performance indicators (KPIs)

Validation

• TBD
