Cybersecurity firm Performanta has its technical capabilities further validated through Microsoft’s highest security accreditation for Gold Security partners.
Maidenhead, UK. 12th July 2022 – Global cybersecurity firm Performanta has secured the Microsoft Security Advanced Specialization in Threat Protection, becoming part of a select group of cybersecurity companies whose Microsoft services meet the highest standards.
Performanta, already recognised for having eight Gold competencies with Microsoft, has achieved the accreditation for its ability to deploy Microsoft 365, including Defender for Endpoint, Defender for Identity, Defender for Cloud Apps, and Microsoft Sentinel.
The process for achieving the accreditation is complex, with the cybersecurity firm having to go through a rigorous audit process. Customer references and certifications need to be provided to meet the stringent criteria.
