Most business owners believe that moving to Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace means their data is "automatically" safe. While these tech giants provide the infrastructure, the security of the data inside it is your responsibility.
As businesses move to the cloud, sensitive information—from client contracts to payroll data—often ends up more exposed than intended. At Managed Technology Group, we’ve built Cyberfend to be the continuous auditor of your cloud environment, ensuring your private data stays private.
The Hidden Dangers of Cloud Storage
Without proper oversight, cloud environments like SharePoint and OneDrive can quickly become a security nightmare. Two major risks haunt the modern SME:
- Over-sharing: Files being shared via "public links" that anyone on the internet can find.
- Shadow IT: Third-party apps being granted permissions to read your company data without your knowledge.
How Cyberfend Protects Your Cloud Environment
1. Continuous Data Scanning Cyberfend acts as a 24/7 security guard for your cloud storage. It constantly scans for sensitive information—like credit card numbers, PII (Personally Identifiable Information), and passwords—that shouldn't be stored in insecure folders.
2. Shadow IT Discovery Every time an employee clicks "Allow" on a new browser extension or a third-party app, they might be giving a stranger access to your cloud data. Cyberfend identifies these "Shadow IT" apps, assesses their risk level, and allows us to revoke permissions instantly if they look suspicious.
3. Public Link Remediation It’s easy to accidentally share a folder with "Anyone with the link" instead of a specific person. Cyberfend identifies every externally shared file in your organisation. We can see exactly who has access to what and "harden" those permissions with a single click, closing the door on accidental data leaks.
4. Misconfiguration Monitoring Cloud platforms are complex, and a single wrong setting in your admin panel can leave your entire company exposed. Cyberfend monitors your cloud posture, alerting our team if a security setting has been changed or if a new "global admin" has been created unexpectedly.
Unified Security for the Modern Office
Cloud Data Protection is a core pillar of the Cyberfend ecosystem. By unifying your email security, identity protection, and cloud storage audits into one platform, we provide a "full-stack" defence that legacy antivirus simply can't match.
