Office 365 Security White Paper

With more workers on the go, your business information is likely accessed by more people and from more places and platforms than ever before. However, this increased access also increases the attack surface of IT. And, those attacks become more and more sophisticated and malicious. Today, cybercrime is perpetrated by highly organized, financially motivated professional criminals. A comprehensive approach to security is required to protect your systems and data in this environment.

Moving productivity services to the cloud requires a serious consideration of security and privacy issues and technologies. Office 365 is designed to deliver the enterprise-grade security businesses require to move to the cloud with confidence. Office 365 data centers are designed, built, and managed using a defense-in-depth strategy at both the physical and logical layers, and the services are engineered to be secure using the Security Development Lifecycle. Office 365 makes it easy for users and administrators to access and use data and services while following security best practices. The Microsoft cloud-based productivity services are built with real-world businesses in mind, helping them embrace the advantages of the cloud on their terms and at their own pace. This White Paper addresses the following security areas:

• Common Cloud security challenges

• Privacy and data ownership

• Built-in security
