From 39% to 70%: Nine Months of Secure Score Gains for a 170-Seat Client

Posted: September 5, 2025Category:

Consistency pays off — I signed a 170-seat customer in January, and their Microsoft Secure Score was 39%.

For the last nine months we have been working on their compliance, and we finally cracked 70% this week. The goal is to be as close to 90% as possible without loss of functionality by October.

Premium alone doesn’t fix it

It’s not just a case of purchasing Microsoft Business Premium and it magically fixing all your security holes. This customer already had Premium for two years before we took over the support contract.

Doing the work takes time and effort, most of it the vulnerability work behind the score — but we build out our systems as we go, so we can replicate this with all our customers.

What’s your score?

Secure Score is Microsoft’s own measure of how well your 365 environment is locked down. If you don’t know yours, that’s the first thing to fix. Ask us to check it — it takes minutes.
