πŸ” Microsoft 365 gives businesses access to a huge range of security features.

The challenge is making sure they are actually configured correctly for your organisation.

Over time, settings can change, users come and go, permissions build up and new applications are introduced. What was secure two years ago might not reflect how your business works today.

That is why periodically reviewing your Microsoft 365 environment is so important.

10-100 can assess areas including authentication, security settings and your overall Microsoft 365 configuration, then identify where improvements could be made. 10-100 also offers a Microsoft 365 Security Health Check against recognised best practices.

πŸ‘‰ When did you last give your Microsoft 365 security a proper health check?

☁️ OneDrive, SharePoint, Teams and Exchange have transformed how businesses store and access information.

But moving data to the cloud does not remove the need to think about backup and recovery.

Accidental deletion, compromised accounts, security incidents and retention gaps can all create situations where you need to recover important business data.

That is why your backup strategy should answer a few simple questions:

πŸ“ What information are we protecting?
⏱️ How quickly could we recover it?
πŸ—“οΈ How far back could we restore from?
πŸ”’ Is there an independent copy of the data?

10-100 provides Veeam backup solutions for Microsoft 365, as well as AWS, Azure and other environments, with options designed to give businesses greater control over recovery.

πŸ‘‰ If an important Microsoft 365 file disappeared today, how confident are you that you could recover it?

🎭 A message from your Managing Director asking for an urgent payment might once have been fairly easy to question.

But what if the voice on the phone sounds exactly like them?

AI-generated voices, realistic messages and deepfake content are making impersonation scams increasingly convincing.

That makes your internal processes just as important as your technology.

For example:
βœ… Verify unusual payment requests using a second channel
βœ… Be cautious when someone creates a sudden sense of urgency
βœ… Never share authentication codes
βœ… Have clear approval processes for financial transactions
βœ… Make sure employees know how to report something suspicious

Technology can provide layers of protection, but a strong verification process can help stop an attacker when something does get through. 10-100 has also highlighted the growing risks around AI impersonation and the importance of independently verifying unusual requests.

πŸ‘‰ Could an AI impersonation scam get through your current processes?

πŸŒ™ A server warning at 2am. Storage quietly running low. A security alert appearing over the weekend.

These are the kinds of issues that can turn into Monday-morning disruption when nobody is monitoring them.

10-100 takes a proactive approach to IT support, with 24/7 monitoring designed to identify potential problems before they have a wider impact on your business.

And when an issue involves your internet provider, software vendor or another technology supplier, we can work with them on your behalf, rather than leaving you to coordinate several different support teams.

Good IT support should not only fix disruption. It should help prevent it.

🚨 Imagine someone in your team discovers their Microsoft 365 account has been compromised.

Who gets called first?
Who decides whether accounts need disabling?
Who contacts customers if data may be affected?
And how does the business keep operating while the issue is investigated?

These are not decisions you want to be making for the first time during an incident.

A simple cyber incident response plan can help your team act faster, limit disruption and make sure everyone understands their role.

The NCSC recommends that SMEs include cyber incidents within their wider business risk planning.

πŸ‘‰ When was the last time your business reviewed what would happen after a cyber incident?

🎣 It is tempting to make phishing entirely about whether an employee spots a suspicious email.

But effective phishing protection needs several layers.

That can include strong email filtering, anti-spoofing controls, secure authentication, protected devices, straightforward reporting processes and a clear plan for responding when something gets through.

Staff awareness still matters, but employees should also feel comfortable reporting a suspicious message or accidental click quickly.

The sooner an incident is reported, the sooner its impact can be contained.

πŸ‘‰ Could your current phishing controls stand up to a real attack? 10-100 can help you review the technology, processes and protections around your business.

πŸ–₯️ Microsoft’s standard support for Windows 10 ended on 14 October 2025.

Extended Security Updates can continue providing eligible business devices with important security updates, but they are a temporary measure rather than a long-term solution.

For SMEs, the priority should be avoiding a rushed decision further down the line.

A simple device audit can help identify:

βœ… Which computers can upgrade to Windows 11
βœ… Which devices may need replacing
βœ… Where Extended Security Updates could help during the transition

πŸ‘‰ Not sure how many Windows 10 devices are still in your business? 10-100 can help you review your estate and build a practical upgrade plan.

πŸ€– Microsoft 365 Copilot can help teams find information, summarise documents and work more efficiently.

But there is an important step to take before rolling it out: making sure the right people can access the right data.

Copilot works with the permissions already in Microsoft 365. This means old SharePoint sites, broadly shared Teams folders and forgotten files could become much easier for users to find.

A secure rollout starts with reviewing access, addressing oversharing and setting sensible governance rules, rather than simply switching on licences.

πŸ‘‰ Planning to introduce Copilot? 10-100 can help you assess your Microsoft 365 environment and put the right foundations in place first.

πŸ” Microsoft is retiring SMS & voice MFA. Is your business ready?

Microsoft is making a major change to how users sign in to Microsoft 365.

From 1 September 2026, users who currently rely on SMS or voice authentication will begin being moved towards passkeys. Then, from 1 February 2027, Microsoft-provided SMS and voice authentication will be retired.

For many businesses, the biggest challenge will not be the technology itself. It will be working out how employees authenticate securely, particularly if they currently use personal mobiles to receive MFA codes.

Passkeys provide stronger protection against phishing, SIM-swap attacks and stolen credentials, but the move may require some planning around devices, user access and your existing Microsoft 365 setup.

If your organisation still relies on SMS or voice for MFA, now is a good time to review how your users authenticate and make sure you have a clear transition plan in place.

πŸ‘‰ Not sure what the change means for your business? Get in touch with 10-100 and we can help you understand your options and prepare for the move.
