How secure is your Microsoft 365?
Microsoft 365 holds your email, files, conversations, and customer information. This guided self-assessment helps you understand where your configuration is strong and where gaps may exist; it's a self-assessment, not a scan. Nothing connects to your tenant.
Is multi-factor authentication (MFA) enforced for every user in Microsoft 365?
This includes email, Teams, SharePoint, and any admin accounts.
Seven categories that determine your Microsoft 365 security posture
The assessment walks you through the areas that most affect whether your Microsoft 365 environment protects your business, or quietly exposes it. Every question includes a 'Not sure' option, because uncertainty is itself worth surfacing.
Identity & Access
Email Security
Data Protection & Sharing
Endpoints & Devices
Monitoring & Response
Backup & Recovery
Governance & Review
Microsoft 365 is where your business actually runs
For most small and midsize businesses on the Treasure Coast, Microsoft 365 is where email, documents, schedules, and customer communication live. It is central to daily operations, which makes it a primary target for attackers and a primary source of risk when it is misconfigured.
Many businesses assume that moving to the cloud means they are secure by default. Microsoft secures the underlying infrastructure, but the responsibility for configuration, who has admin access, whether MFA is enforced, how sharing is controlled, whether logs are retained, and whether data is backed up, belongs to the business. Microsoft's shared-responsibility model makes this explicit, and cyber insurance underwriters increasingly expect it to be documented.
The most common problems are not exotic. They are unenforced MFA, overbroad Global Admin rights, DMARC left in monitor mode, sharing set to "anyone," audit logs turned off or default-only, and a reliance on Microsoft's platform defaults as a substitute for backup. Each of these is fixable, and each becomes more important when AI tools like Microsoft Copilot can search broadly across the information in your tenant, surfacing files that were quietly accessible all along.
This assessment helps you see where you stand across those areas so you can make focused, practical improvements, whether you handle Microsoft 365 yourself, work with an internal IT employee, or rely on an outside provider. Titan helps Treasure Coast businesses secure and manage Microsoft 365, and a technical review goes deeper than any self-assessment can.
How your readiness score is calculated
Each of the 21 questions is scored from 0 to 3, with "Not sure" scoring 0 to surface genuine uncertainty rather than hide it. Scores roll up into seven categories, and the category averages produce an overall readiness score from 0 to 100.
The results then highlight what you are doing well, categories where controls are clearly in place, and surface three areas to review, prioritized by score and by how many "Not sure" answers appeared. "Not sure" is treated as a signal worth acting on: not knowing whether a control exists is itself a gap.
This is an educational self-assessment, not a formal audit or compliance certification. It helps you prioritize. A technical Microsoft 365 security review from Titan examines your actual configuration, admin roles, Conditional Access, sharing settings, logging, and backup, and produces a prioritized remediation plan.
Microsoft 365 security questions, answered
Is the Microsoft 365 security assessment a scan of my tenant?+
No. This is a guided self-assessment. You answer questions about how your Microsoft 365 is configured. Titan does not connect to your tenant, request credentials, or access your data. A formal technical review only happens later, with your approval.
What does the assessment cover?+
Seven categories: identity and access (MFA, admin roles, Conditional Access), email security (filtering, DMARC, business email compromise), data protection and sharing, endpoints and devices, monitoring and response, backup and recovery, and governance and review.
Does Microsoft 365 include backup by default?+
Microsoft provides infrastructure availability and limited retention, but its shared-responsibility model generally does not guarantee permanent, restorable backups of email, files, and Teams data. Most businesses add a third-party Microsoft 365 backup for reliable, isolated recovery, especially against ransomware and accidental or malicious deletion.
What is Conditional Access in Microsoft 365?+
Conditional Access is a Microsoft Entra feature that lets you allow or block sign-ins based on conditions like user, location, device compliance, and sign-in risk. It is one of the most important controls for protecting Microsoft 365 beyond passwords and MFA.
What is a good Microsoft 365 Secure Score?+
Microsoft Secure Score is a relative measure of recommended security controls. There is no single passing number; the goal is steady improvement over time. Treat Secure Score as a roadmap, not a grade.
Is MFA required for Microsoft 365?+
Microsoft strongly recommends multi-factor authentication for all Microsoft 365 users, and CISA and NIST guidance emphasizes MFA as a baseline identity control. Enforcing MFA across every account is among the highest-impact actions a small business can take to block account takeover.
Should a small business back up Microsoft 365 if it is already in the cloud?+
Yes. Cloud hosting is not the same as backup. Recovery from ransomware, malicious deletion, or a compromised admin often requires a separate, isolated backup that has been actually tested. A backup never restored is a hope, not a strategy.
Can Titan help my Treasure Coast business secure Microsoft 365?+
Yes. Titan helps businesses across Stuart, Port St. Lucie, Fort Pierce, Jensen Beach, Palm City, Vero Beach, Jupiter, and the surrounding Treasure Coast secure, manage, and recover Microsoft 365, from identity and email security to backup and governance.
Turn your assessment results into a plan.
If your score surfaced gaps you want to close, a technical Microsoft 365 security review from Titan goes deeper, reviewing your actual configuration and producing a prioritized remediation plan. No pressure, and no access to your environment without your approval.
