Microsoft Security CISO Workshop: How SMBs Can Simplify Security and Compliance with Microsoft Defender and Purview Suites

Posted : 29 October 2025

Posted In : Webinars

Cost and complexity have historically been barriers for SMBs. Many SMBs struggle to protect themselves due to limited resources and a lack of expertise.

With Microsoft’s Defender and Purview bundles, SMBs can now access the same security and compliance capabilities used by large enterprises, without the enterprise price tag. Microsoft Defender and Purview Suites unite the full capabilities of Microsoft Defender and Purview into a single, cost-effective package. SMBs can now have end-to-end security and enforce data protections and privacy controls on par with a Fortune 500 company, without extra tools, staff, or complexity.

Learn how to reduce risks, respond faster, and maintain a strong security posture without adding complexity.
