Regarding using Azure Active Directory / O365 / Windows to endsure Security

Question

Dear Sir / Madam

We are a SaaS company and are looking at a comprehensive strategy to implement security within the organisation.

We use a combination of local host and Cloud (Azure) for development. All our production applications are hosted on Azure. We do not have server.

We use O365 for our employees.

We need help setting security on the following (not limited, more ideas welcome)

1. Access Control
2. User Privileges
3. 3rd Party Application Installation Control
4. Website Access Control
5. Physical Ports like USB control
6. Virus / Phishing control
7. IP / MAC id / AD control
8. Source Code Control

Do let us know if there is a comprehensive way that we can do using Microsoft software. If not would also be great if third party software is suggested.

Regards

Ramesh

Hi,

Thank you for posting in our forum.

According to your description and the overall analysis, this post should be about azure. It is recommended that you remove the win10 tag, and then contact the azure team to solve this problem

Hope this information can help you

Using Microsoft 365 and Azure you are able to achieve certain degree of management. However to manage clients and endpoint like application control and malware issue, you will need Microsoft Intune:
