Security Posture Report Overview

The Security Posture Report is another way Augmentt helps you understand security compliance for your clients, as well as your own business. It drives a deeper understanding of which checks are solving for the relevant compliance framework and the impact of each item on your Microsoft Secure Score. You will be able to easily show value to your clients by utilizing this report to demonstrate how Augmentt can increase your Secure Score.

Currently, this report is only integrated with Microsoft 365.

Posture Score and Compliance Status

Posture Score: The Posture Score percentage represents the ratio of current configurations to the recommended configurations.

Compliance Status: A visual breakdown of your compliance – helping you to understand your current configuration in more detail. You can sort and filter the report based on these statuses to get a closer look at what is complete and what needs to be done.

Compliance Status Breakdown

Compliance Statuses: Compliant, Partially Compliant, Not Compliant, Resolved, Ignored, Not Measured. Not Measured refers to anything where we can't identify if it's compliant or not - it could be a license, data error, etc.
