Microsoft 365 comes with powerful security features, but many businesses pay for them and never switch them on, or leave the defaults in place. Sydney Technology Solutions configures, hardens and manages Microsoft 365 security, so your identities, devices, email and data are properly protected.

What we secure
Entra ID and Conditional Access
Identity protection, multi-factor authentication, Conditional Access policies that block risky sign-ins, and tightly controlled admin roles.
Microsoft Defender
Defender for Business or Endpoint on your devices, and Defender for Office 365 for safer email, links and attachments.
Intune device management
Enrol and manage company devices, enforce security and compliance policies, deploy apps, and remotely wipe lost or stolen devices.
Purview data protection
Sensitivity labels, data loss prevention and retention policies, so confidential information stays where it should.
Email security
Anti-phishing and impersonation protection, safe links and attachments, and SPF, DKIM and DMARC set up correctly.
Secure Score and reviews
Regular Microsoft Secure Score reviews to track your security posture and prioritise improvements.
Make the most of what you already pay for
Many of these tools are included in Microsoft 365 plans like Business Premium, but they need to be set up properly to protect you. We’ll review your licences and configuration, switch on what you’re already paying for, and only recommend extra licences where they genuinely add value.
How we work
1. Assess
We review your Microsoft 365 tenant, licences, Secure Score, sign-in policies, devices and data settings.
2. Plan
You get a prioritised list of improvements in plain English, with any costs clearly explained.
3. Implement
We configure and test the changes carefully, communicating with your staff so there are no surprises.
4. Manage
We monitor, maintain and review your settings over time as Microsoft adds features and threats change.
Part of a layered defence
Microsoft security is a strong foundation. We add 24/7 monitoring with managed EDR and ITDR for Microsoft 365, align your setup with the Essential Eight, and back it all up with tested backups. See our full cybersecurity services.
Why choose STS for Microsoft 365 security
Microsoft 365 security is often already paid for but not switched on. We configure Defender, Intune, Entra ID and Purview properly, monitor them and keep them current, aligned with the Australian Cyber Security Centre’s Essential Eight. Microsoft 365 security from STS means you make the most of the protection in your existing licences before buying anything new.

Frequently asked questions
Is Microsoft 365 secure out of the box?
It’s a good platform, but the default settings aren’t enough for most businesses. MFA, Conditional Access, device management and email protection need to be configured to suit how you work.
Do we need Microsoft 365 Business Premium?
Not always. Business Premium includes many of the security tools on this page, and for many businesses it’s good value, but we’ll recommend the right mix of licences for your needs and budget.
Will the changes disrupt our staff?
We plan and test changes carefully and explain them to your team first, so day-to-day work isn’t interrupted.
Can you manage our phones and laptops with Intune?
Yes. We can enrol company devices and, where appropriate, personal devices used for work, with policies that protect company data.
Is Microsoft 365 security included in our licence?
Many Microsoft 365 security features are already included in Microsoft 365 Business Premium and other plans. We check what you have and switch on the Microsoft 365 security you’re already paying for.
