Defender for Cloud Apps

Your data flows through cloud apps — uncontrolled. DLP policies, session control, and OAuth cleanup protect what discovery alone cannot.

You Know Which Cloud Apps Are Used. But Who Controls What Flows Through Them?


Cloud Apps Discovery shows which apps are in use. But transparency alone doesn't protect data. Without DLP policies, employees can upload sensitive documents to any cloud app. Without session control, users download confidential files from personal devices. And 20-30% of all OAuth apps in your tenant have permissions that nobody has reviewed.


Defender for Cloud Apps is included in M365 E5 or available as standalone. For Microsoft stack customers, superior in price and technology compared to Netskope or Zscaler.

3 steps. From start to finished project

How a typical Microsoft project runs with DAMALO

STEP 1

Choose a blueprint and analyze your environment

Select a proven blueprint. AI agents pull your licenses, current config, and compliance needs into the plan. No generic advice.

STEP 2

Receive your plan and start implementation

Review the plan. AI agents draft architecture, sequence tasks, and map dependencies to Microsoft best practices. Tailored to your tenant.

STEP 3

Guided implementation through to completion

Execute step by step. AI agents provide PowerShell scripts, admin center deep-links, and walkthroughs. Every change auto-documented.

The result: A completed Microsoft project in 1-2 weeks. Documented. Audit-ready. Understood by your team. Adjustable at any time. No change requests. No follow-up engagements.

M365 Tenant Readiness

Microsoft 365

Security

Problem: Misconfigurations in the tenant lead to security gaps, licensing issues, and compliance risks.

Scope: Review global settings in Admin Center and Entra ID - Validate Entra Connect (users/groups/devices/writeback) - Consistent UPN strategy and hardening of admin accounts - Onboard domains, assess DNS and network access

Result: A stable, license-compliant M365 tenant as a reliable foundation for all subsequent projects.

Icon
Conditional Access

Microsoft 365

Security

Problem: Uncontrolled access is a primary risk — MFA and Conditional Access protect identities.

Scope: Gather requirements per user group - Policies for user risk, location, device/platform, and apps - Block legacy authentication, activate session controls - Structured rollout: Report-Only → Pilot → Go-Live

Result: Verifiably secured access with clear policies and high usability.

Defender for Office 365

Microsoft 365

Security

Problem: Phishing and malware via email are among the most common attack vectors in mid-market companies.

Scope: Safe Links and Safe Attachments including detonation - Configure anti-phishing and impersonation protection - Customize policies per user group - Reporting dashboard and end-user awareness materials

Result: Measurably fewer successful phishing attempts and a well-documented email security architecture.
