Microsoft security

Defender, Intune, and Zero Trust — configured natively inside Microsoft 365.

Rua Technologies deploys and tunes Microsoft's native security stack — Defender, Intune, Entra ID, and Purview — for organizations across India, so protection lives inside the tools your team already uses.

For organizations already running Microsoft 365, this is often the fastest path to meaningfully better security, since the licensing and infrastructure are already in place.

What's included

The Microsoft security stack, configured and kept current.

01Protect

Microsoft Defender

Endpoint, email, and cloud app protection deployed and tuned to reduce noise while catching real threats.

  • Defender for Endpoint deployment
  • Defender for Office 365 (email & collaboration)
  • Defender for Cloud Apps
  • Threat and vulnerability management
  • Alert tuning to reduce false positives

Best for: Organizations on Microsoft 365 who want native endpoint and email protection instead of a third-party layer.

Typical timeline: Initial Defender rollout typically takes 1–2 weeks.

02Manage

Intune device management

Mobile device and endpoint management with compliance policies that keep unmanaged or risky devices off your network.

  • Device enrollment (Windows, iOS, Android)
  • Compliance policy configuration
  • Conditional access integration
  • App protection policies
  • Remote wipe and lost-device handling

Best for: Teams managing a mix of company-owned and BYOD devices who need consistent policy enforcement.

Typical timeline: Intune rollout typically takes 2–3 weeks for a mixed device fleet.

03Verify

Identity & Zero Trust

Entra ID (Azure AD) configuration and Zero Trust access policies that verify every request instead of trusting the network.

  • Multi-factor authentication enforcement
  • Conditional access policy design
  • Zero Trust network access setup
  • Privileged identity management
  • Single sign-on (SSO) integration

Best for: Organizations moving away from perimeter-only security toward identity-based access control.

Typical timeline: Zero Trust identity setup typically takes 2–4 weeks depending on app count.

04Govern

Purview compliance

Data governance, sensitivity labeling, and insider risk controls built into Microsoft 365 rather than bolted on.

  • Sensitivity labels and data classification
  • Data loss prevention (DLP) policies
  • Insider risk management
  • eDiscovery and retention policies
  • Compliance reporting

Best for: Regulated or data-sensitive businesses that need governance controls without a separate DLP platform.

Typical timeline: Initial Purview configuration typically takes 1–3 weeks.

05Detect

Microsoft Sentinel SOC

Microsoft Sentinel correlates signals from Defender, Entra ID, and cloud workloads into a single investigation view instead of five separate consoles.

  • Sentinel workspace setup and log ingestion
  • Analytics rules tuned to your environment
  • Automated incident response playbooks
  • Cross-signal correlation and investigation
  • Threat hunting support

Best for: Organizations with a growing security team that need centralized detection instead of console-hopping.

Typical timeline: Sentinel onboarding typically takes 2–3 weeks depending on log sources.

06Improve

Secure Score management

Ongoing tracking of your Microsoft Secure Score with prioritized, practical recommendations instead of a static compliance checklist.

  • Monthly Secure Score review
  • Prioritized configuration recommendations
  • Legacy protocol and setting cleanup
  • Benchmark tracking against similar organizations
  • Quarterly security posture reporting

Best for: Organizations that want measurable, ongoing improvement in their security configuration, not a one-time hardening project.

Typical timeline: Baseline Secure Score review completed in week one, then tracked monthly.

FAQ

Common questions about Microsoft security.

QDo we need extra licensing for Defender and Intune?

Some capabilities are included in Microsoft 365 Business Premium and E3/E5 plans; others require add-on licensing. We'll map out exactly what your current plan includes.

QCan Microsoft Defender replace our third-party antivirus?

For many organizations, yes — Defender for Endpoint provides enterprise-grade protection. We'll assess your environment before recommending a switch.

QWhat is Zero Trust and do we really need it?

Zero Trust means verifying every access request rather than trusting anything inside the network by default. It's increasingly standard for organizations with remote or hybrid teams.

QHow does this differ from your general Cybersecurity page?

This page covers Microsoft-native tools (Defender, Intune, Entra ID, Purview) specifically. Our Security Solutions page covers the full multi-vendor picture, including third-party endpoint and network security.

QCan you manage Intune for company-owned and personal (BYOD) devices?

Yes. We configure separate compliance and app protection policies for managed and BYOD devices.
