Why does Microsoft 365 Environment need to be ISO:27001 Compliant?

ISO will help manage the security of confidential data such as employee records, customer data, financial details, and more. In Microsoft 365, such sensitive records are scattered and stored for various purposes. Thus, you must comply with ISO:27001 controls to secure your Microsoft 365 environment and avoid data breaches.

Does Microsoft’s ISO:27001 Certification Exclude Us from Individual Compliance Audits?

Verifying your organization's security controls with ISO:27001 standards is required for the following reasons.

  • Though Microsoft provides necessary security configurations and policies, some of them are applied by default, and some need to be manually configured based on the organization's needs.
  • Also, Microsoft requires customers to opt for various license plans to utilize the full potential of compliance controls. So, customers may rely on any third-party tools to optimize their budget.

Thus, auditing every bit of security controls configured in your organization is prominent to comply with the ISO:27001 controls.
