Rebasoft and Microsoft

Most organisations invest heavily in Microsoft security. Few can prove it protects everything that matters.

Microsoft helps secure identities, endpoints, email, cloud services and data. Rebasoft helps organisations understand what exists, what matters, where risk remains and whether critical controls are delivering the protection, resilience and compliance outcomes the business expects.
Microsoft + Rebasoft

Microsoft delivers security. Rebasoft delivers assurance — proving those controls operate across the live estate.

Unknown assetsFind systems that are not properly recorded, governed or managed.

Continuous assuranceEvidence controls, configuration and compliance without manual effort.
Security is not the same as assurance

Why organisations invested in Microsoft still choose Rebasoft

Microsoft provides broad capability across endpoint protection, identity, email security, cloud security, endpoint management, SIEM, XDR, data protection and compliance.

However, leadership teams, auditors and insurers still ask questions that security tools alone cannot fully answer: do we know every asset connected to the business, which services are most exposed, are critical controls working, can we prove compliance continuously — and what should we fix first?

Microsoft helps protect and manage the digital estate. Rebasoft helps prove what exists, what matters, where risk remains and whether the estate is actually under control.
What Microsoft does well

A major security and productivity platform.

Microsoft brings identity, endpoint, cloud, email, data and security operations into a connected ecosystem.

Threat protection

Microsoft Defender helps protect endpoints, identities, email, collaboration tools, cloud apps and workloads from modern threats.

Identity and access

Microsoft Entra helps organisations manage identity, access, authentication and conditional access across users and applications.

Endpoint and security operations

Microsoft Intune, Defender XDR and Sentinel help teams manage devices, investigate incidents, collect logs, hunt threats and automate response.

The operational reality

Answers that sit across the wider estate.

Even with a strong Microsoft deployment, organisations still need answers that reach beyond the Microsoft-controlled layer.

What assets exist?

Not every device is enrolled, onboarded, licensed, owned, patched or correctly recorded in a CMDB.

What business service is at risk?

An alert, vulnerability or policy failure is more useful when teams understand the application, dependency and service impact behind it.

Can we prove controls are working?

Auditors, insurers and management increasingly need continuous evidence — not assumptions, exports or manual spreadsheets.

What Rebasoft sees that Microsoft may not

From a powerful security ecosystem to full business-service assurance.

This is not a Microsoft weakness. It is the difference between strong security controls and full business-service risk assurance across the whole estate.

Unknown & unmanaged assets

Challenge: Devices, network infrastructure, IoT, OT, shadow IT and temporary systems can exist outside normal Microsoft enrolment.
Rebasoft: Continuously discovers assets across network, infrastructure, endpoint, cloud and hybrid environments.
Impact: Fewer blind spots and stronger asset confidence.

Business-service dependencies

Challenge: Teams may know a device, user or alert exists, but not which business service depends on it.
Rebasoft: Maps relationships between assets, users, applications, infrastructure and services.
Impact: Faster impact assessment and better business-level prioritisation.

Configuration drift

Challenge: Secure settings, infrastructure configurations and operational controls can change after deployment.
Rebasoft: Validates configuration state and identifies drift from expected controls.
Impact: Stronger control assurance and lower operational risk.

Compliance evidence

Challenge: Microsoft provides important data, but evidence still needs to be joined with asset, network, service and operational context.
Rebasoft: Automates evidence collection for assets, controls, configuration, dependencies and risk posture.
Impact: Reduced audit effort and greater confidence in reporting.

From technical visibility to business confidence

Before and after Rebasoft.

Before

  • Microsoft tools working well, but wider context is fragmented.
  • Asset records need manual reconciliation.
  • Some assets are not enrolled, onboarded or correctly classified.
  • Business-service impact is unclear.
  • Configuration drift is difficult to evidence across the estate.
  • Audit preparation takes time.
  • Risk is prioritised mainly by technical severity.
  • Leadership receives reports they must interpret.

After

  • One trusted view of assets, services and risk.
  • Continuous asset and service intelligence.
  • Clear visibility of unmanaged or unknown assets.
  • Business impact is visible.
  • Controls and configuration are continuously validated.
  • Evidence is ready when needed.
  • Risk is prioritised by business importance.
  • Leadership gets clear answers they can trust.

A realistic Microsoft + Rebasoft scenario

A Defender alert affects a critical business service.

Situation A Defender alert affects a critical business service

Microsoft Defender raises a high-priority alert on a user device associated with finance operations.

Risk Context is missing

The SOC needs to understand whether the device is connected to critical finance systems, exposed infrastructure, privileged accounts or services with compliance obligations.

Microsoft What Microsoft provides

Threat detection, incident detail, endpoint context, identity signals and response options through Microsoft security tools.

Rebasoft What Rebasoft adds

Asset ownership, service dependency, network location, related infrastructure, configuration state, control evidence and business-impact context.
