Improving security posture across the Microsoft partner ecosystem
Microsoft's Deputy CISO discusses securing the Microsoft partner ecosystem, particularly Cloud Solution Providers (CSPs) that help customers deploy and manage cloud services. The company acknowledges that compromised CSPs pose significant risk because they manage multiple downstream customer tenants and have been targeted by nation-state actors seeking broad customer data access. Microsoft's approach combines platform security controls, visibility into platform usage, and collaborative security standards with its partners.
Why it matters: Organizations using CSPs to manage Microsoft 365 and Azure deployments need to understand that partner compromise represents a direct supply chain risk to their environments and should evaluate their CSP's security practices and Microsoft's partner vetting processes.
