Threat & Vulnerability Management (TVM)
Know your exposure. Fix what matters.
Combine agent based and credentialed network scanning for complete coverage of laptops, servers, and network devices, onsite and remote. We track CVEs, prioritise by business impact, and guide remediation through monthly expert reviews and Power BI dashboards.
Options:
- One off / Quarterly scans – External & internal scope, validated findings, and a remediation plan.
- Continuous evaluation – Always on agent + scheduled network scans; optional Defender Vulnerability Management to enrich prioritisation with Microsoft threat intel and breach likelihood scoring.
Deliverables:
- Power BI report
- CSV export
- Review workshop
- A board level summary that focuses on High/Critical risk and CE+ relevance.

Data Protection & Human Risk Management
Protect data - and empower people
- Classify & control: Roll out Purview sensitivity labels and DLP to keep sensitive data where it belongs – across endpoints, Microsoft 365, and Copilot interactions.
- Coach risky users: Use Attack Simulation Training to safely test users, then auto assign micro trainings that change behaviour, we partner with the best offerings to provide you with complete peace of mind.
- Identity at the core: Enforce Conditional Access and PIM for just in time admin roles and granular, risk based access.
Partner-powered Human Risk (CybSafe & KnowBe4)
- CybSafe (HRM): Predict and reduce risky behaviours with evidence based guidance, just in time nudges, and HRM analytics. Integrates with Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Defender to turn signals into targeted coaching; compliance mappings (GDPR, ISO 27001, CE/CE+) help you prove control.
- KnowBe4 (KSAT + Security Coach): Personalised awareness + simulated phishing at scale, plus real time coaching when risky actions occur. Native integrations with Microsoft 365, Defender for Cloud Apps, Entra SSO, Phish Alert Button (PAB), and Edge for Business keep everything inside your Microsoft workflows.
Best for:
- SMB / charities: Rapid rollout with curated training paths, simulated phishing, PAB, and browser based coaching; quick wins without extra headcount.
- Mid market / enterprise: HRM analytics, risk scoring, and no code workflows that trigger nudges from Microsoft security events; map outcomes to GDPR/ISO/CE controls.

Contact usFrequently Asked Questions
- How is MDR different from XDR and when do I need Sentinel?
MDR (Managed Detection and Response) typically focuses on endpoint protection – such as Defender for Endpoint – and provides managed services like threat detection, response, and containment.
XDR (Extended Detection and Response) expands this by integrating signals across endpoints, email, identity, and cloud apps for broader visibility and correlation.
Microsoft Sentinel is a cloud-native SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) and SOAR (Security Orchestration, Automation and Response) platform.
You need Sentinel when:
- You want centralised visibility across multiple data sources (Microsoft and third-party).
- You require advanced analytics, UEBA (User and Entity Behaviour Analytics), and automated response capabilities.
- You’re operating at SOC Level 4 or higher, with M365 E5 and Azure subscriptions in place.
- Can I keep my current AV or do I need Defender for Endpoint?
While you can technically retain your current antivirus, Wanstor standardises on Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (MDE) for EDR, ASR, and containment.
MDE offers:
- Behavioural sensors embedded in Windows 10/11.
- Cloud-based analytics and threat intelligence.
- Automated investigation and response.
- Integration with Microsoft 365 and Sentinel for full-stack visibility.
Using MDE ensures compatibility with Wanstor’s managed SOC tiers and unlocks advanced features like attack surface reduction and threat analytics.
- Will DLP slow us down?
Not when it’s done right. Microsoft Purview DLP is tuned for productivity and designed to operate seamlessly across endpoints, apps, and services. It protects data in use, in motion, and at rest, with agentless integration into familiar tools like Office, Windows, Edge, and Chrome.
Start in monitor mode to observe data flows and fine-tune policies. Once confident, shift to enforce mode – ensuring sensitive data is protected without disrupting workflows.
Purview DLP also supports flexible policy management from the Microsoft 365 Compliance Center, making it easy to adapt controls to different teams, roles, and risk levels.
Wanstor’s approach blends Purview DLP with sensitivity labels and insider risk management to ensure secure productivity – so people can work safely and fast, anywhere.
- How quickly can you show value? (Free external scan in days; SOC onboarding in phased waves; CE gap analysis in weeks.)
We deliver value from day one – starting with a free external vulnerability scan, which identifies misconfigurations, unpatched systems, and CE-relevant risks. Results are presented in a Power BI dashboard with CVSS scoring, remediation guidance, and optional CSV export.
SOC onboarding follows in phased waves, tailored to your environment. We begin with Discovery & Planning, then move into Enablement, Go-Live, and Stabilisation, supported by hypercare and continuous improvement cycles.
For compliance, our Cyber Essentials (CE) gap analysis is delivered in weeks, with fixed-price packages and audit preparation. We support CE, CE+, and ISO 27001, helping you achieve certification quickly and confidently. Our Secure Productivity framework also includes:
- Security Posture Reviews
- Threat & Vulnerability Management
- Zero Trust Workshops
- Purview DLP and Defender pilots
- Microsoft 365 user training and adoption
These activities are designed to show measurable impact – fast.
- Do we need both CybSafe and KnowBe4?
Not necessarily. Many start with KnowBe4 for training, phishing simulations, PAB and Security Coach. As maturity grows, CybSafe adds HRM analytics and behavioural nudges driven by Microsoft security signals. We also run both in tandem for the broadest coverage.
- How do they integrate with Microsoft?
KnowBe4 supports Entra SSO, M365 onboarding, Defender for Cloud Apps and PAB; CybSafe integrates with Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Defender to ingest behaviour events and trigger interventions.
- Will this work for small teams as well as large enterprises?
Yes. KnowBe4 is widely used across tens of thousands of organisations; CybSafe provides HRM analytics that scales by roles and risk profiles – both suit SMB through enterprise.
