- Mitigation & Response
Modern cyber attacks often involve logging in with stolen credentials rather than breaking in. Once inside Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, attackers can read emails, create forwarding rules, impersonate staff, exfiltrate files, or attempt financial fraud.
Mitigation & Response includes identity-based detection and response (ITDR) for M365 and Google Workspace. This monitors for:
- risky logins
- impossible travel
- suspicious inbox rules
- privilege misuse
- unusual file access
- configuration changes
If an account is compromised, we help isolate it, remove malicious changes, check for persistence, secure related accounts, and guide the recovery process. This closes the gap that antivirus and traditional tools cannot see.
