IllustrativeA representative example of how CyberByte Security works and the outcomes we target — not an actual client result. Figures are indicative.

The challenge

A long-standing customer could make completing a supply-chain security questionnaire a condition of staying on their panel. The manufacturer might run everything through Microsoft 365 without having reviewed its configuration beyond turning on MFA, leaving identity and data-protection gaps it can't see.

The trigger

A major customer's supply-chain security questionnaire could become a condition of remaining a supplier.

How CyberByte Security could approach it

A scoped, deliberate path to the outcome

Each step would be prioritised, evidenced and written to be acted on.

  • Review Microsoft 365 identity and Conditional Access coverage

  • Harden Defender and remove legacy authentication paths

  • Tighten Purview data-loss and retention configuration

  • Lock down privileged and admin role assignments

  • Produce an evidence pack for the customer's questionnaire

Target outcomes

What a successful outcome could look like.

Secure Score uplift

Target outcome: materially lift the Microsoft 365 Secure Score

Legacy auth blocked

Target outcome: close the highest-risk identity path

Evidence prepared

Target outcome: evidence prepared for the customer questionnaire

What success could look like

In a scenario like this, a manufacturer could move from assuming MFA was enough to seeing what was missed — with evidence prepared for the customer's questionnaire.
