• Approach to resilience: Microsoft's datacentre setup is designed to be resilient and align with the UK Government's 2nd Cloud Security Principle "Asset Protection and Resilience". ; * Redundant Architecture: Microsoft online services achieve service resilience through redundant architecture, which involves deploying multiple instances of a service on geographically and physically separate hardware. This provides increased fault-tolerance for Microsoft online services.; * Data Replication and Automated Integrity Checking: Data replication and automated integrity checking are also part of Microsoft's strategy to ensure service resilience.; * Compliance with UK G-Cloud: Every year, Microsoft prepares documentation and submits evidence to attest that its in-scope enterprise cloud services comply with the 14 Cloud Security Principles of G-Cloud. This gives potential G-Cloud customers an overview of its risk environment.; * ISO/IEC 27001 Certification: The compliance process relies on the ISO/IEC 27001 certification. A Government Digital Service (GDS) accreditor then performs several random checks on the Microsoft assertion statement, samples the evidence, and makes a determination of compliance.; * UK OFFICIAL Data: The appointment of Microsoft services to the Digital Marketplace means that UK government agencies and partners can use in-scope services to store and process UK OFFICIAL government data.
• Outage reporting: "Microsoft provides several ways to report service outages for BizApps and Azure Cloud:; *Public Dashboard: Microsoft provides a public dashboard where users can view the health of their Microsoft services, including BizApps and Azure. The dashboard indicates whether there is an active service issue and links to the detailed Service Health page.; *API: Microsoft offers the Service Communications API in Microsoft Graph, which allows users to access the health status and message centre posts about Microsoft cloud services. For Azure, users can get information about outage-impacted resources programmatically by using the Events API.; *Email Alerts: Users can sign up for email notifications of new incidents that affect their tenant and status changes for an active incident. Azure Service Health also allows users to set up Service Health alerts to be automatically notified about service issues by email.

The MSP organizes Microsoft's security policies, standards, and requirements so they can be implemented across all Microsoft engineering groups and business units.; *Business Unit Responsibility: Individual business units are responsible for specific implementations of Microsoft security policies. For example, Microsoft 365 documents its security implementations in the Microsoft 365 Information Security Policy and the related Microsoft 365 Control Framework. Azure and Dynamics 365 document their security implementations in the Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and the Azure Control Framework.; *Alignment with Regulatory and Compliance Frameworks: Microsoft's security governance program is informed by and aligns with various regulatory and compliance frameworks. Security requirements are constantly evolving to account for new technologies, regulatory and compliance requirements, and security threats.; *Policy Updates: Microsoft regularly updates its security policies and supporting documents to protect Microsoft systems and customers, meet commitments, and maintain customer trust.

Operational security

• Configuration and change management standard: Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
• Configuration and change management approach: Modern Work enforces change management procedures for both code and non-code changes to maintain its security posture. Once an information system within Modern Work is deployed with a robust security posture, detailed change management processes are enforced to maintain system integrity.
• Vulnerability management type: Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
• Vulnerability management approach: "Assessing Potential Threats; Microsoft uses a variety of methods to assess potential threats to its services. The Microsoft Detection and Response Team (DART) actively looks for cyberthreats that have penetrated an environment, looking beyond known alerts or malicious threats to discover new potential threats and vulnerabilities. They use a tiered data collection model and start by collecting a snapshot of the densest, most indicator-rich data they can from every object and endpoint they can reach. This data provides information about any known threats, known attack patterns, and many indicators of suspicious or anomalous activity.
• Protective monitoring type: Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
• Protective monitoring approach: Azure security has defined requirements for active monitoring. Service teams configure active monitoring tools in accordance with these requirements. Active monitoring tools include the Microsoft Monitoring Agent (MMA) and System Centre Operations Manager. These tools are configured to provide time alerts to Azure security personnel in situations that require immediate action.
• Incident management type: Complies with a recognised standard, for example, CSA CCM v4.0 or ISO/IEC 27035:2011 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
• Incident management approach: To effectively respond to security incidents, Microsoft employs a federated security incident response model. Each major online service team adheres to a shared incident management process, shared definitions, and shared training to provide consistency across all online services. The Microsoft 365 (Modern Work) Security Response team provides service teams with centralized security expertise and incident response guidance as part of our federated security response model. Depending on the nature of the incident, the Microsoft 365 Security Response team and service teams may engage security partners and subject matter experts from other organizations within Microsoft for investigative assistance.
