Defender licensed, but not delivering
Buying Microsoft security does not automatically mean you're protected.
Most organisations already own powerful Defender capability. It's rarely fully configured, tuned or monitored.
What success looks like
Turn the security capability you already own into protection that is actively managed
- Defender for Endpoint, Office 365, Identity and Cloud Apps fully configured
- Policies tuned to your environment
- Alerts triaged and actioned by a named team
- Full coverage across users, devices and mailboxes
- Regular posture reporting you can share
- More value from licences you already pay for
The ASD's Annual Cyber Threat Report 2023–24 reported that over 87,000 cybercrime reports were made in Australia in 2023–24 — one report every six minutes. Ransomware remains the most destructive cybercrime type reported by organisations. (Source: ASD Annual Cyber Threat Report 2023–24)
End-to-end Microsoft Defender management — Office 365, Endpoint, Identity and Cloud Apps — configured, monitored and tuned for organisations that need measurable security uplift.

Benefits
Mycelium 365's managed security service can be paired with leading security awareness training platforms including KnowBe4, Hoxhunt and Microsoft Defender for Office 365 Attack Simulation Training. Simulated phishing campaigns and ongoing user education combined with Defender's email, endpoint and identity threat protection create a layered security posture — technology controls catching the threats that slip past people, and trained people catching the social-engineering attempts that slip past technology. For organisations aligning to the ACSC Essential Eight, this pairing addresses both the user-awareness and technical mitigation strategies in a single managed service. Microsoft Defender for Endpoint blocks over 6.5 billion threat signals per day across its global network — making it one of the largest threat intelligence datasets available to any endpoint security product.
