Proactive Identity Security Posture Management for Microsoft 365

Huntress Managed Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM) continuously audits and enforces configurations, policies, and permissions in Microsoft 365 to shut down attack paths across every organization.

35% of organizations take up to a week to spot high-risk misconfigurations. 37% take an extra 1-7 days to fix them.

77% of organizations have delayed business initiatives due to security posture concerns.

91% of organizations would prefer a managed approach to improving identity and endpoint posture.

We don’t leave the door open for hackers to walk in

Attackers live off bad defaults, misconfigurations, and over‑privileged accounts. We find and fix those weak spots in Microsoft 365, locking down hacker attack paths before they ever show up in an alert.

Always‑on identity protection guided by SOC insights

Our security experts define the playbook, then continuously enforce a Huntress‑managed identity framework tuned to Microsoft guidance, industry standards, and real‑world attacker techniques.

Harden Microsoft 365, not your workload

You shouldn’t need an in‑house identity team to run Microsoft 365 securely. Managed ISPM spots risks and snaps misconfigurations back to safe defaults to give you identity resilience and compliance without extra overhead.

Key Capabilities

Lock Down Your Identity Attack Surface with Huntress Managed ISPM

Our experts own and maintain the Huntress‑managed identity security framework—an always‑up‑to‑date set of best‑practice policies for Microsoft 365. Managed ISPM continuously enforces that framework across every organization you manage. We find and shut down the misconfigurations attackers love to exploit.

Ongoing Posture Assessment

Keeps a close eye on Microsoft Entra ID and Conditional Access policies, pinpoints gaps, and highlights where your security posture strays from best-practice recommendations.

Managed Security Policies

Rolls out Huntress-maintained policies and recommended settings to keep organizations locked into best practices. This helps you harden identities without lifting a finger.

Continuous Enforcement

Catches policy drift fast and rolls back unauthorized or accidental changes within minutes, shutting down opportunities for attackers to breach defenses or move laterally.

Multi-Tenant Support

Standardizes Microsoft 365 security policies across tenants, making it easy to enforce best-practice configurations and deliver scalable identity posture services to clients.

User Impact Guidance

Breaks down why each configuration change matters and how it affects end users, so you can confidently deploy secure settings without second-guessing the impact.

Escalations and Remediation

When a security control can’t be auto-remediated, we’ll escalate with clear, step-by-step guidance to quickly bring it back to a secure state.

What Makes Managed ISPM Different

Identity Hardening Backed by Experts, Not Guesswork

Huntress defines, deploys, and maintains your identity security framework—keeping up with Microsoft changes, licensing, and evolving standards. No more guessing what “good” looks like or hesitating to push critical configuration changes.

Evidence-Based Controls to Target the Worst Attacker Tradecraft

With visibility into 10M+ identities, Huntress prioritizes the gaps attackers exploit most—like risky logins from shady locations or networks and mailbox manipulation used in business email compromise (BEC). Our posture improvements deliver real security, not just better scores.

Configuration Fixes That Are Faster Than Attacker Tradecraft

While traditional posture tools scan every 24 hours, leaving you open to risky exposures, Huntress enforces policy within minutes of the change. This closes gaps well inside the 48-minute average of the lateral movement window of today’s attackers.

Standardized Identity Security at Scale. No Specialists Required

Enforce consistent, best-practice identity policies across dozens or hundreds of tenants or business units. Huntress handles drift detection and remediation, so you don’t need in-house identity engineers to keep every environment aligned.

Full-Spectrum Identity Protection: Prevent, Detect, Respond

ISPM and ITDR make the perfect pair. ISPM hardens your environment to stop attacks before they start. Used together with Huntress Managed ITDR, you get proactive hardening to reduce the attack surface, and a 24/7 SOC to quickly shut down anything that sneaks through.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Managed ISPM?

Managed Identity Security Posture Management is a fully managed solution that maintains a secure Microsoft 365 framework for security hardening, surfaces misconfigurations, and streamlines remediation to build identity resilience.

What problems does Huntress Managed ISPM solve?

Huntress Managed ISPM fixes misconfigurations, risky identity settings, and configuration drift in Microsoft 365, giving you consistent, expert-led hardening across every organization you manage.

How does it differ from generic ISPM tools?

Unlike standalone toolkits, Huntress provides a managed approach where our analysts manage the changes and policies, so you don't have to be a Microsoft security expert. The heavy lifting of defining policies, tracking drift, remediating unapproved configurations, and understanding the impact of changes before rollout is all handled for you.

Does this replace Managed ITDR?

No. ISPM is preventative hardening (proactive posture management), while ITDR is active detection and response. Together, they provide 24/7 identity protection.
