Microsoft Secure Score for Identity Security Posture Assessment

Pre-requisites

• 
  The activities outlined in section 10.2 Business Value Presentation should be completed prior to starting this activity.
  
• 
  Access to the Microsoft Secure Score portal.
  

Deliverables

• 
  All Microsoft Secure Score identity-related improvement actions analyzed, prioritized, and documented as part of the 10 - Secure Identities and Access - Key results, Recommendations and Next Steps.pptx presentation.
  

Guidance

• 
  Ask the customer to sign into the Microsoft Secure Score portal and assist (guide) them in exploring the Overview dashboard.
  
• 
  Open the Improvement Actions tab and use the filter function to show improvement actions within the Identity category.
  
• 
  Open each improvement action that hasn’t already been completed and explain:
  
  • 
    What the action does.
    
  • 
    Potential user impact and affected users.
    
  • 
    Implementation prerequisites.
    
  • 
    The recommended next steps, considering the customer’s requirements and environment.
    
• 
  In some cases, it might be useful to demonstrate the improvement action functionality and/or feature using a demonstration tenant.
  
• 
  For each improvement action, update the action plan status and notes. For example, if the customer agrees to implement the improvement action, set the status to Planned and add notes if needed. If the customer is planning to implement the improvement action as part of a planned next step, you can also add a tag with the name of the next step. This could, for example, be the name of a planned engagement. You can then later filter the improvement actions based on their tags.
  
• 
  Use the list of planned improvement actions to update the Microsoft Secure Score Results section within the 10 - Secure Identities and Access - Key results, Recommendations and Next Steps.pptx presentation.
