What is the Microsoft Secure Score?

Microsoft Secure Score assists you in assessing the level of protection for your organization by providing:

  • Clear visuals and charts displaying your score and progress

     

  • Connections to other Microsoft products that can assist in enhancing your security

  • Ability to compare your score with other organizations in the same industry or area.
  • Tips and advice for every action you can take to improve your score and your security.
  • Opportunity to strategize, track your improvement efforts, and report back to your executives

To enhance the security of your organization, it is crucial to understand the necessary steps, the methods to implement them, and the implications for your organization. Additionally, knowing how to showcase your results and garner support from your executives is vital in bolstering your organization's security posture.

What are good scores?

Industry standard is set at 44%, so if you fall below this, you are at risk that needs to be addressed. As an IT provider, we have dedicated considerable time to bolstering our own security, evident in our current score of 88%, a feat very few in Sweden can boast about.

Why is the score important?

The significance of Microsoft Secure Score lies in its ability to assist you in:

  • Understand how well you are protecting your organization against hackers and other threats.
  • Enhance the security of your organization by providing you with tips, advice, and control.
  • Compare your security with other organizations and adhere to industry standards and goals.
  • Protect your organization from significant damages and costs that can result from cyberattacks.
  • Receive better terms and rates from insurance companies that offer discounts based on your high score.
