Over 1 million businesses worldwide use Microsoft 365 (M365), and as one of the most popular platforms, Managed Service Providers face the daunting task of managing and securing M365 environments for numerous clients.
The challenge becomes even more complex for MSPs overseeing 1,000 or more clients. Octiga addresses the complexities MSPs can face when managing M365, making securing their tenants M365 simple—no matter how many they have to manage.
Octiga is built for MSPs and dedicated to M365 security and monitoring. Let’s discuss Octiga's offering and the benefits MSPs can expect.
Octiga security for MSPS
Octiga is a cloud-based platform designed to simplify M365 security management. With a secure, one-time sign-in using M365 credentials, MSPs can quickly deploy and maintain best practice baseline configurations.
The result? Client environments develop optimal security standards without the need for prolonged setup processes. Where traditional security solutions require manual configurations, Octiga offers true efficiency, automating security posturing and reducing operational complexities.
What are the key features of Octiga?
1. Best practice baseline templates
Octiga offers pre-configured templates that match industry standards, allowing MSPs to efficiently implement consistent security measures across all client accounts. These templates provide a proactive security foundation, mitigating risks before they escalate into full-blown security incidents.
2. Gap analysis and risky configuration remediation
Octiga’s platform conducts thorough assessments to identify vulnerabilities and provide actionable insights, ensuring that potential threats are addressed before they can cause issues. This capability is especially helpful for MSPs managing many client environments with varying security infrastructure.
3. Breach detection and alerting
Octiga's real-time monitoring tools detect suspicious activities and alert MSPs, facilitating rapid response to potential security incidents. Whether it's unusual login attempts, unauthorised data access, or phishing attacks, MSPs can respond quickly to ensure threats are contained.
4. One-click remediation
Designed for efficiency, one-click remediation allows MSPs to resolve identified issues swiftly, minimising potential disruptions to their client’s day-to-day operations. With automated security responses, MSPs can maintain high levels of protection with minimal manual intervention.
5. Incident response with prioritisation
Octiga prioritises incidents based on severity, and this is great for allowing MSPs to allocate resources effectively and address the most critical threats first. High-risk issues are mitigated immediately, reducing the potential impact of breaches.
6. PSA integrations
With an easy integration with Professional Services Automation (PSA) tools, MSPs can manage client services and billing without toggling between multiple platforms. This integration offers workflow efficiency and ensures that security management aligns with business operations.
7. Client reports and proof of service
Octiga generates reports that provide transparency and demonstrate the value of client services. These reports help MSPs showcase their security efforts and serve as essential documentation for compliance audits.
Advantages of Octiga for MSPs
Scalability and efficiency are paramount for MSPs handling SMEs or enterprises with over 1,000 clients. Octiga addresses these needs by significantly reducing the time and effort required for M365 security tasks. What traditionally takes 3 to 4 hours can be done in 10 minutes, freeing up valuable resources.
And that’s not all. Octiga's multi-tenant dashboard offers a centralised view, allowing MSPs to monitor and manage all client environments from a single interface. This streamlines operations and helps maintain a consistent security posture across the board.
Reducing operational costs
One of the biggest challenges for large MSPs is balancing security with cost-effectiveness. Octiga eliminates inefficiencies by automating complex security tasks, this allows MSPs to allocate their technical teams to more strategic initiatives rather than repetitive security checks.
Meeting compliance requirements
Many businesses, especially in regulated industries such as healthcare, finance, and legal, require strict compliance with cybersecurity standards. Octiga simplifies compliance by enforcing security baselines, generating audit-ready reports, and providing continuous monitoring. MSPs can meet compliance mandates without the burden of manual tracking, which is another great resource-saver.
Enhancing client trust and retention
Client trust is critical to staying competitive in the market. Octiga helps MSPs proactively manage security, reducing the risk and impact of breaches. This proactive approach safeguards client data and builds trust, which means increased client retention and satisfaction.
Proof of protection
Clients want reassurance and peace of mind that their data is secure. Octiga’s automated reporting allows MSPs to share detailed security insights with clients, reinforcing transparency and demonstrating ongoing protection efforts. This proof of protection strengthens client relationships and builds long-term loyalty.
Cost-effective tools for large teams
Octiga is built to manage any number of users, so whether you’re managing a client with a team of 20 or 2,000, Octiga’s platform is scalable and efficient no matter the management level required.
