Pricing questions

What clients usually ask before scheduling.

What increases Azure security audit pricing?

Multiple subscriptions, tenants, identities, resource groups, workloads, storage services, public endpoints, PaaS, containers, logging platforms, and incomplete governance records increase effort.

Is Microsoft 365 included?

The Azure audit includes connected Entra identity where relevant. A detailed Exchange, SharePoint, Teams, OneDrive, and Microsoft 365 email review is priced separately.

Will the audit validate Defender for Cloud recommendations?

The review can assess Defender configuration and prioritize relevant recommendations, but it also checks identity, network, data, logging, recovery, and governance evidence beyond a single dashboard.
