Microsoft Cloud Hardening Review
Harden Your Microsoft Cloud Environment
The Microsoft Cloud Hardening Review helps organizations identify configuration weaknesses and privilege risks across Entra ID, Microsoft 365, and Azure. TrustedSec’s experts analyze your environment through an attacker-informed lens to ensure security controls align with real-world threats and industry best practices.
Building Resilience Across Microsoft Cloud Platforms
Cloud environments evolve quickly, and configurations that were once secure can become vulnerable as new services and integrations are added. Without consistent hardening, privilege sprawl, misconfigured policies, and incomplete monitoring can create invisible attack paths.
TrustedSec’s review delivers a unified look across Microsoft cloud platforms to help your team close security gaps and strengthen identity protections to help maintain long-term operational integrity.
