Introduction

BIPROGY has officially launched its new service designed to provide optimal operation support for Microsoft 365, particularly focusing on enhancing security measures. As the demand for flexible work environments continues to grow, Microsoft 365 has become a key tool for many organizations; however, the challenges of ongoing management and security can often hinder its effectiveness.

The Need for Improved Security in Cloud Management

In recent years, the trend toward digitalization has changed how employees work, making cloud services like Microsoft 365 essential. Yet, as cyber attacks become increasingly sophisticated, the risk to organizational data is higher than ever. Many businesses implementing Microsoft 365 are facing ongoing operational challenges, with security often being deprioritized. A lack of visibility and understanding of which security measures are benefitting organizational operations contributes to a cycle of ineffective security management, which can result in an increased risk of data breaches.

Overview of Microsoft 365 Support Service

To ensure safe and efficient operation of cloud environments, comprehensive support is essential. The new Microsoft 365 Support Service by BIPROGY covers four major areas prone to security risks and aims to enhance security while optimizing operational efficiency. This service includes continuous support, even for inquiries made by users.

Service Offerings

1. ID and Access Management Service
The entry point for all services is the management of IDs. To prevent unauthorized access and account takeovers, measures must be in place to secure this critical area. Utilizing Microsoft Entra ID, this service offers assistance with user management for cloud IDs, designing access policies, monitoring security, renewing application certificates, and creating usage reports.

2. Collaboration Tool Operations Support
Exchange Online and Teams are vital tools in daily business operations. Misconfigured sharing settings and poorly managed guest access can lead to data leaks, highlighting the necessity for robust policy design and monitoring. This service includes security measures for Exchange Online Protection and Teams policies, ensuring stable communication infrastructure management by monitoring access, managing team and guest access, and preparing usage reports.

3. PC and Smart Device Management Service
With external access and BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) practices becoming commonplace, understanding device security is vital. By leveraging Microsoft Intune for centralized management, this service implements compliance policies, security measures, monitoring, and device management, enhancing operational efficiency across all devices.

4. Security Monitoring Operations Service
Establishing a real-time threat detection and response system is central to minimizing potential incidents. Using Microsoft Defender for Endpoint and Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps, this service provides an all-encompassing approach to security implementation, threat detection, monitoring, and usage reporting, thereby ensuring a secure Microsoft 365 environment.

Future Directions

BIPROGY has a history of supporting enterprises from the deployment to the effective use of Microsoft 365, gathering valuable knowledge and insights. By fostering flexible responses tailored to each organization’s unique environment, BIPROGY aims to promote the establishment and continuous improvement of a security-centered Microsoft 365 operational framework through its support services.
