Why 1Security

Attackers don't break in anymore. They log in.

The vast majority of today's breaches are not sophisticated malware slipping past a firewall - they are identity and permission attacks. Attackers exploit overshared data, dormant accounts, rogue AI agents, and unmanaged shadow devices, moving through your environment along the exact same access pathways your employees use. There's no exploit to patch and no signature to match - just a valid login doing things it shouldn't.

Cybercrime evolved from vulnerabilities to permissions. Most security tooling didn't.

The Invisible Attack Vector

The tooling landscape completely failed to evolve

Despite the shift, legacy tools are stuck in the past:

• SIEMs & Data Lakes extort organizations into storing "dead logs" for compliance, but lack the contextual intelligence to catch a threat in real time.
• IAM & Directory tools manage provisioning, but are completely blind to what identities are actually doing with your data - or which unmanaged devices they're doing it from.
• Static compliance scanners produce point-in-time dashboards that are obsolete the moment they're exported, leaving teams drowning in alerts they can't act on.

The result: security teams flying blind, manually stitching cryptic audit trails across fragmented systems just to answer one deceptively simple question - "Who has access to what, and what did they do with it?"

1Security is built to answer it.

Measure what matters. Act on what you measure.

The old management adage holds in security too: you can't improve what you can't measure. Legacy tools give you either raw logs without intelligence or static dashboards without context. 1Security turns your live Microsoft 365 data into measured, ranked, trended intelligence - and then lets you act on it in the same interface.

• Savings you can quantify - every dormant license, abandoned app, and orphaned site is a cost line you can measure and reclaim. Not "you might have waste" - a ranked list of exactly what's unused and for how long.
• Time to action - from "who has access to what?" taking days of manual stitching across systems to minutes. From detecting a mass-download spike to alerting in as little as one hour. From finding a risk to remediating it without leaving the screen.
• Data-driven decisions - every finding, every trend, every alert is backed by measured activity data, not assumptions. You're acting on evidence: real usage numbers, real permission states, real activity timelines.
• Available now - same-day deployment on standard Microsoft 365 licenses. No SIEM contract, no professional services engagement, no multi-month implementation. First scan results arrive before the day is over.

Six questions every security team gets asked and can't answer from native Microsoft 365 tooling - each turned into minutes of work, on a standard license.

1. The Identity-Attack Forensic Tool

Did somebody steal our data - and exactly what was affected?

A new category of tool for a threat the old ones can't see.

• Proactive anomaly & insider-threat alerting - active defense, not post-breach autopsy. High-signal alerts for tenant-wide risks, sudden mass downloads, and anomalous access catch compromised accounts and insiders in real time. See Activities.
• 3-year forensic memory without the log-storage tax - storing logs is expensive even with tools that add no intelligence on top. 1Security retains up to three years of activity history out of the box, on standard licenses.
• 12 hours to 10 minutes - answer definitively "is this a breach, or normal behavior?" and chart the exact blast radius of a compromised account.
• Shadow Devices & Shadow Locations - automatically surface unmanaged endpoints touching your data and anomalous, previously-unseen access origins - with Microsoft's own backend IPs filtered out so real anomalies aren't buried in false positives.
• Contextual enrichment vs. cryptic logs - turn raw, unreadable audit events into a unified timeline that attributes every action to the exact Actor, Resource, App, Device, and Location.
• Unmasking the insider threats traditional tooling misses - most successful breaches never trip a single alarm: an email quietly forwarded to an unknown recipient, an unknown device signing in with a stolen employee token, data accessed from an unexpected location, activity patterns just slightly off the norm. To traditional tooling, every one of those events looks completely legitimate. 1Security correlates Actor, Device, Location, and behavior across the full activity timeline to expose the attack hiding inside "normal" events.

2. The Data & Permission Crystal Ball

Who has access to what - and why?

Another new category: permission visibility at every altitude.

• From bird's-eye to single detail - zoom seamlessly from a tenant-wide view of permission creep down to a single risk. Not just "which financial files are available to AI?" but "exactly why does this specific user and this specific AI have access to this one file?" See the Permission Graph.
• The ultimate access map - map where data lives, who (humans, service accounts) can reach it, what AI and apps can read it, and where your real sensitivity risks are concentrated across Files, Sites, and Groups.
• Oversharing & exposure profiling - spot widely-available sensitive data before it leaks, and reveal the hidden pathways normal directory logs miss: dormant public links, over-permissioned folders, unauthorized routes.
• Security-measure verification - see the true, real-time coverage of controls you already pay for, like Microsoft Purview labels. Know instantly what's tagged and what's exposed.
• Audit-ready compliance & reporting - frameworks like NIS2, ISO 27001, and SOC 2 demand continuous evidence of who can access what and what's done with the data. With black-box permission models, producing that evidence is slow and costly - and every report is outdated the moment it's generated, because data ecosystems never stop changing. 1Security draws reporting straight from the live permission and activity map, so it's always current.

3. Total Hygiene & Attack-Surface Cleanup

Are we wasting budget and hoarding hidden risks?

Every stale account and forgotten resource is both a cost line and an attack path. 1Security finds both in one pass.

• Zero-waste IT - reclaim budget by finding unused licenses, dormant apps, inactive users, abandoned mailboxes, and orphaned sites.
• Attack-surface cleanup - eliminate stale, orphaned, and disabled devices, and sever lingering access for offboarded employees before it becomes an insider threat or breach vector.
• AI context-window optimization - declutter the data footprint so corporate AI like Copilot doesn't hallucinate on outdated junk or surface sensitive executive documents to regular employees.

4. Shadow AI, Shadow IT & Autonomous Agents

What AI tools and third-party apps are secretly reading our data?

Employees consent to OAuth apps and build agents in an afternoon; IT finds out at the incident review.

• Shadow AI discovery - catch rogue AI tools and unvetted third-party apps that employees quietly connect to corporate data.
• Safe AI guardrails - establish bulletproof data-access boundaries and clean up permissions before rolling out enterprise AI, so every agent operates only within authorized limits.

5. Instant Ecosystem-Wide Remediation

How do we immediately fix the vulnerabilities we just found?

• From dashboards to control - move past read-only. Safely revoke, grant, or update permissions - from a tenant-wide oversharing fix down to removing one user's access to a single file - across the entire Microsoft 365 ecosystem, right from the 1Security interface.
• Strict opt-in write model - the platform runs read-only until you deliberately enable remediation, so granting write access is a controlled decision, never a leap of faith.

6. The Measurement & Benchmarking Engine

Are we getting better or worse - and how do we know?

Management asks for numbers. Security teams deliver narratives. 1Security closes that gap with measured, trended, benchmarkable intelligence - the kind C-level needs for board reporting, budget decisions, and risk-posture tracking.

• Usage & adoption tracking - who is actually using Copilot, which agents are active vs abandoned, which sites are thriving vs going quiet. Real adoption numbers, not survey guesses. See Activities.
• Cost intelligence - license-utilization rates, dormant-app spend, orphaned-site storage costs. Every dollar of Microsoft 365 spend, accounted for and ranked by waste.
• Risk posture over time - is your exposure shrinking or growing? Track permission-creep trends, oversharing velocity, and sensitive-data exposure as they evolve - not as a point-in-time snapshot, but as a direction.
• Time-to-detect and time-to-remediate - measure how quickly your team catches and closes risks. Sub-hour detection windows for active threats, same-session remediation for found exposures.
• Board-ready benchmarks - ranked, sparklined, and exportable. Top downloaders this week. Unused apps this quarter. Most-shared files this month. The numbers that matter, always current, always shareable.

Built to be affordable

All of this runs on standard Microsoft 365 licenses. Sensitivity scanning doesn't need E5 or Purview. Location intelligence doesn't need premium sign-in logs. Three-year retention doesn't need a SIEM contract. The pattern is deliberate: elite visibility priced like a utility, not like a data lake.
