Protect Microsoft 365 with Controla

Microsoft 365 is where important day-to-day work lives: company email, shared documents, calendars and meetings, and the identities that decide who gets access to which systems and files.

That’s why protecting Microsoft 365 is fundamental.

It’s also a common target. A single phishing email can lead to account takeover, attackers setting up inbox rules that quietly forward emails, files shared too broadly outside the organization, and risky sign-ins that slip through.

Today, Controla integrates with Microsoft 365. Connect your Microsoft 365 environment and see risks across accounts, security settings, and shared files — with clear guidance and automated actions where available to fix them.

Why Microsoft 365 security matters

For most teams, Microsoft 365 is where work actually happens, and it’s connected to the rest of your business.

That connection is what makes it so valuable, and so risky. If an attacker gets access to Microsoft 365, it’s rarely limited to a single mailbox or one shared document. One compromised account can lead to emails being read or forwarded, files exposed through sharing, someone pretending to be an employee, and access to other tools that use Microsoft sign-in.

But staying on top of settings, access, and sharing takes time. And for small and mid-sized businesses, that work often competes with everything else that needs to get done.

Controla is built to make these important security gaps easy to see — and easy to fix.

What the Microsoft 365 integration does

Once connected, Controla surfaces common Microsoft 365 risks and turns them into actions you can take right away, such as:

• Account protection gaps: missing multi-factor authentication (MFA) or weak sign-in protections
• Risky sign-ins: suspicious activity that should be reviewed
• Overshared files: access that’s broader than intended, including sharing outside your organization
• Security settings: configurations that increase exposure

Each finding comes with clear guidance, with automated actions where available.

How it works: in minutes, not weeks

1. Connect Microsoft 365

   An admin signs in and connects your Microsoft 365 environment.

2. Assess automatically

   Controla scans key signals and settings and highlights what matters most.

3. Fix with guided actions

   Follow clear steps with automated actions where available.

4. Stay on top of changes

   Controla keeps monitoring so new risks don’t go unnoticed.

Who this is for

This integration is built for teams that rely on Microsoft 365 but don’t have the time, or a dedicated security team, to constantly chase settings and alerts.

If you’ve ever thought:

• “We’re probably fine… but I’m not 100% sure.”
• “We don’t have time to keep checking every setting.”
• “I need to know what to fix first — and get it done fast.”

…this is for you.
