Microsoft 365 Hardening That Holds, No Matter What Changes
Huntress Managed Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM) closes the misconfigurations, gaps, and policy drift attackers rely on before they can be exploited. We define, deploy, and maintain gold-standard policies so your Secure Score goes up while your workload goes down.
Attackers don't need new tricks. They use the gaps that are already there: weak MFA, over-privileged accounts, misconfigured Conditional Access. Huntress identifies and closes those weaknesses across Microsoft 365 before they hand attackers a way in.
Most tools tell you what to fix and leave you to figure out the rest. Huntress defines the gold standard for Microsoft 365 hardening, deploys the right controls, and maintains them over time. Your team stays focused. Your environment stays hardened.
Drift isn't just a maintenance issue. It's an exposure issue. When a policy slips, attackers can move in under an hour. Huntress detects and remediates drift in minutes, closing the window before it can be exploited.
Huntress owns and maintains the identity security framework, so you don't have to create and define baselines. Managed ISPM continuously enforces best-practice policies across every organization you manage. We find and shut down the misconfigurations attackers love to exploit.
Continuously pinpoints gaps in Microsoft Entra, Exchange, SharePoint, and more to identify where settings stray from best practice.
Rolls out Huntress-managed settings on a clear schedule to keep organizations locked into best practices without you lifting a finger.
Catches policy drift within minutes to roll back unauthorized or accidental changes before attackers can exploit them.
Runs new policies in report-only mode first so you can see exactly who'd be affected before anything changes that would impact end users.
When a control can't be auto-remediated, we notify you with clear remediation steps so nothing stays exposed.
Standardize hardening across every tenant so MSPs can scale and M&As are protected from day one.
Unlike competitors who leave the the hardest work on your team, Huntress defines and maintains the gold standard for Microsoft 365 hardening. Expert-defined policies, deployed with confidence, and kept current as the threat landscape evolves.
Our SOC has visibility across 13M+ identities, giving us a front-row view of how attackers actually operate. We use that intelligence to prioritize policies around the gaps being actively exploited, not just what's on a compliance checklist.
Most solutions scan for drift every 12-24 hours. By then, the window's already open for an attacker to get a foothold. Managed ISPM detects risky changes within minutes and automatically restores back to policy, closing exposure before it can be exploited.
When Managed ITDR catches active threats, those findings feed directly into ISPM to close the exact gaps attackers tried to exploit. The Huntress platform applies detection and prevention in a continuous loop, so the same weakness isn't hit twice.
Managed ISPM hardens your environment so attackers have nowhere to start. Managed ITDR adds a 24/7 SOC to catch anything that slips through. And every threat ITDR uncovers tells ISPM exactly where to close the gap, so the same weakness can't be exploited twice.
You get prevention that focuses detection, detection that tightens prevention, and a loop that gets harder to beat with every attack.

We built this guide for IT and security leaders evaluating Identity Security Posture Management solutions to harden Microsoft 365 and close identity gaps.
Inside, you’ll get practical guidance on what capabilities actually matter, how to evaluate your needs, and how to choose the right identity management model for your organization.
This datasheet breaks down how our SOC-led experts standardize identity security across tenants, enforce best‑practice policies within minutes, and reduce risk from shady logins and mailbox manipulation.
Managed Identity Security Posture Management is a fully managed solution that hardens Microsoft 365 by finding and fixing misconfigurations, risky access, and policy drift. Huntress defines the gold standard, deploys the right controls, and keeps them enforced continuously so your posture keeps improving while your workload goes down.
Huntress Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM) fixes the identity-layer vulnerabilities attackers exploit most, without adding work to your team.
Account Takeover: Misconfigurations, over-privileged accounts, and weak access controls give attackers easy entry. Huntress ISPM finds and remediates these gaps before they can be abused.
Business Email Compromise (BEC): Identity gaps and exposed mailbox settings in Microsoft 365 are prime BEC targets. Huntress ISPM closes those attack paths and keeps them shut.
Ransomware-Enabling Identity Abuse: Attackers use weak identity settings as footholds to move deeper into your environment. Huntress ISPM hardens those entry points so a single compromised account can't spiral into full network takeover.
Unauthorized and Risky Logins: Sign-ins from suspicious locations, malicious networks, or untrusted VPNs signal active threats. Huntress ISPM deploys Conditional Access policies that block these logins before they succeed.
Mailbox Manipulation and Persistence: Abused mailbox rules and permissions are a common BEC tactic for staying hidden. Huntress ISPM detects and hardens against these techniques.
Lateral Movement and Privilege Escalation: Excessive privileges give attackers room to roam. Huntress ISPM remediates these paths so one weak account doesn't compromise you.
Legacy Authentication and MFA Bypass: Older auth methods and weak MFA let attackers skip modern protections entirely. Huntress ISPM enforces stronger standards and closes those gaps.
The bottom line: Huntress ISPM deploys the policies and settings that prevent these attacks from succeeding. Because it's fully managed, your team gets enterprise-grade identity security without the added workload or expertise overhead.
Other tools show you what to fix and leave the work to you. Huntress defines, deploys, and maintains the hardening framework so your team doesn't have to be Microsoft identity experts. Policy creation, drift management, user impact analysis, and remediation are all handled for you.
No. ISPM is preventative hardening (proactive posture management). ITDR is active detection and response. Together they cover the full identity attack lifecycle: ISPM stops more attacks from starting, and ITDR shuts down the ones that still get through.
Yes. Learning Mode runs new Conditional Access policies in report-only mode so you can see exactly who'd be affected before anything changes. Rollbacks take seconds if needed, and we saw a less than 1% rollback rate across the 12,000+ tenants using Managed ISPM so far. Enforcement is safe at scale.
