In short

Defy IT’s Microsoft 365 service sets up, secures and administers a business’s Microsoft 365 tenant, covering email, Teams, SharePoint and OneDrive. We harden configurations against phishing and account takeover. It suits businesses that rely on Microsoft 365 every day but have no one managing it.

Security layers

Defence across all of Microsoft 365.

Microsoft prioritises collaboration over security by default. We rebalance it.

Hardened, not default

From potential liability to protected workspace.

Email security

Phishing, malware and impersonation stopped before the inbox.

Account security

Enforced MFA and conditional access by location and device.

Data protection

DLP and encryption so sensitive data isn’t shared by mistake.

Access management

Tight permissions around SharePoint, OneDrive and guests.

Compliance

Audit trails and retention settings configured to support your Australian regulatory obligations.

Incident response

Threat alerts and procedures to isolate compromised accounts.

What we defy

Out of the box isn’t good enough.

A compromised account is a direct gateway to client files, financials and email history.
