What is the Microsoft Value Realisation Assessment – Security?
Find out how secure your IT estate is and what risks you face with our in-depth assessment. We will help you identify the gaps and overlaps in your security solutions and show you both how to improve your security posture and save costs through the Microsoft security platform.
We focus on the end-to-end security stack offered by Microsoft which includes Threat Protection, Identity, Data Security and Endpoint Management.
This is the assessment phase of our end-to-end Security Value Realisation engagements. Following on from the assessment we can offer the following:
- Microsoft Value Realisation Strategy – A service that defines design documents and transition plans to help you achieve the security maturity and/or cost savings we identified during our Assessment.
- Microsoft Value Realisation Implementation – A service that implements the actions we identified and outlined in the Assessment and Strategy phases.
- Managed Services – We also offer a Managed Service to help take care of your security concerns and provide ongoing protection for your environment.
