Unified security oversight
Bring the Microsoft 365 security signals that require attention into one management view.
OfficeBoard helps teams move from scattered alerts and portal-hopping to a clearer, prioritised view of security posture, affected users and recommended next actions.
Microsoft Secure Score
Review score movement, improvement actions and security priorities across users, apps and devices.
High-severity alerts
Identify and investigate critical and high alerts that require coordinated response.
User risk
Focus on users generating the most alerts and accounts showing risky or unusual activity.
Mailbox monitoring
Surface suspicious forwarding rules, inactive mailboxes and unusually high spam volumes.
Identity status
Review sign-in denied users, disabled accounts, MFA gaps and privileged-account changes.
Recommended actions
Translate security findings into clear remediation steps, owners and review priorities.
Microsoft Secure Score
Track security posture as a programme, not a one-time review.

- Track Secure Score movement over time
- Review recommended improvement actions
- Understand the potential score impact of each action
- Prioritise actions based on business risk and operational effort
- Share progress with CIOs, security leaders and administrators
