Despite the wide range of applications and features in the Microsoft 365 platform, the primary communication and collaboration tool for most users - and the core of Microsoft 365's functionality - continues to be email.

The Microsoft 365 cloud environment itself benefits from an extensive monitoring and security infrastructure.

From a centralized dashboard, you can monitor and improve the security of your Microsoft 365 identities, data, apps, devices, and infrastructure.

In addition to the aforementioned steps, you can leverage this Microsoft 365 Monitoring Checklist to ensure you are doing all you can to secure the Microsoft 365 platform.
