Lots of new sales resources to share

This month we’re introducing three new Microsoft cloud security Quick Start programs designed to help customers close and lock digital doors and protect against imminent nation-state cyber attacks. We also have a new security podcast from our expert team, a new cybersecurity blog, an upcoming webinar with customer case study and live demo, two new customer case studies and five impressive customer wins to share with you.



Let’s connect at Microsoft Co-sell-athon
Edgile will be at Co-sell-athon. We're looking forward to virtually connecting with you to discuss how we can accelerate our Q4 pipeline and create even more profitable opportunities for FY23.
See you there!
Quick Start programs for Microsoft cloud security

Edgile’s Quick Starts are a highly efficient way for clients to leverage their investments in Microsoft cloud platforms. The programs employ a fixed price, fixed scope, and fixed delivery methodology to produce measurable risk and security outcomes in the fastest and most predictable manner. Using templates and accelerators, Edgile’s Microsoft specialists will deliver business-aligned solution builds that include:
  • A definition of business requirements and drivers with their success criteria
  • An analysis of detected risks
  • A risk mitigation operations plan with instructions on how to run and scale the platform
  • A roadmap outlining next steps for maximizing downstream investments
Your customers get immediate value in deploying Microsoft security controls without having to commit to a big budget, long-range security initiative. This can drive a desire to scale capabilities and give you additional upsell opportunities down the road.

White House says private sector must accelerate efforts to lock digital doors



In our latest blog post, we provide insights into the recent cyber attack fact sheet from the White House, which warned of evolving intelligence that nation-states may be exploring options for potential cyberattacks. We help your customers digest the key points, including the use of strong MFA, the deployment of modern security tools on all devices, the importance of constantly scanning for vulnerabilities and updating passwords, and data encryption best practices.

We list three questions CISOs should ask which can help you promote Microsoft Azure threat protection capabilities as preferred security solutions.

New podcasts highlight Microsoft security tools

Last month we launched the first in a series of podcast episodes hosted by Edgile expert Brad Smith, where we discussed the customer-focused aspects of modern threat protection and how the Microsoft suite of security tools can be used in different ways to lower enterprise risks.

This month we have a new episode where we discuss the one trait shared by today’s attackers and enterprise CISOs: both are leveraging AI’s Machine Learning (ML) to either attack better or defend better. And both sides are collecting as much information and telemetry as they possibly can and aggregating it in such volume that they can derive patterns of vulnerability.

PODCAST 6: What CISOs should do differently to defend against attackers using Machine Learning [10:16]

All our podcasts are available at edgile.com/podcasts and will soon be on Apple and Spotify. Watch for that announcement.

Case Studies
 
Alcoa
Alcoa needed Edgile to help them implement and lead enterprise adoption of a central identity management system across four continents. We have worked with Alcoa on a series of projects including IAM strategy and deployment, Azure MFA, and GDPR App DPIA Assessment. A Microsoft 365 deployment strategy is underway with services expected in 2022.
 
 
Ecolab
Ecolab needed a more cost effective and efficient way to secure and manage hundreds of thousands of customer identities. Our work with Ecolab has accelerated Azure adoption for their business applications using Azure AD B2C, and they have adopted Azure AD as the corporate standard for B2B collaboration. The solution will drive over $100,000/month in Azure software, replacing a large Okta implementation.
