NEW IN FORGE · MANAGED INTELLIGENCE AS A SERVICE

Security that knows
how your business works.

Guardian is your own security intelligence, running in your Forge. Vulcan365 sets it up with the protection you’d expect from the leading security tools. Then you work with Guardian to tune it to the way your business actually operates.

Every other tool sees your business the same way it sees everyone else’s. Guardian can know your customers, your suppliers and your own apps, because it’s yours.

WHY WE CHANGED GUARDIAN

You told us security should fit your business. We listened.

We first planned Guardian as a shared online service, the same for everyone. Our clients told us something important: the protection they already had was the same for everyone too, and that was the problem.

A shared service can’t know that your finance team pays overseas suppliers every month, that your field staff sign in from job sites, or which of your customers really sends you invoices. So it either cries wolf or misses what matters.

So we moved Guardian into Forge and made it Managed Intelligence as a Service. Each business gets its own Guardian, running in its own Forge. Vulcan365 seeds it with the security tools, monitors and sensors every business needs. You and Guardian take it from there, together.

HOW GUARDIAN WORKS FOR YOU

A strong baseline on day one.
Sharper every week after.

01

We set the baseline

Vulcan365 sets up Guardian with the checks leading security tools rely on, measured against Microsoft’s own recommended settings for your email, sign-ins and accounts.

02

It reviews, every night

Guardian reviews your Microsoft 365 every night, or whenever you ask. Each finding says what it found, what it should be, how serious it is, who it affects and exactly where to fix it.

03

You tune it together

Ask Guardian about any finding in plain language. Tell it what’s normal for your business, and set aside what doesn’t apply, with a reason it remembers.

04

You connect what it sees

Connect Guardian to your CRM, your own Forge apps and the business systems you choose, so it understands your operations the way your best people do.

THE BASELINE, PLUS YOUR BUSINESS

Everything you expect from a leading security tool.
Then what only your own Guardian can do.

The baseline, set up by Vulcan365

  • Phishing and email protection. Around twenty checks on impersonation, spoofing, dangerous links and attachments, spam, forwarding and the records that prove your email is really from you.
  • Multi-factor sign-in. Who has none, which admins lack phishing-resistant sign-in, and who still relies on text messages.
  • Access rules. Whether your sign-in rules cover everyone, which exceptions are risky and where old, weaker sign-in methods are still allowed.
  • Suspicious sign-ins. Impossible travel, password-guessing attacks, repeated sign-in prompts meant to wear someone down, and sign-ins from places that hide who they are.
  • Honest about gaps. If a check can’t run because of your licensing or access, Guardian says so. It never reports something as safe that it couldn’t check.

What your own Guardian adds

  • Phishing judged with business context. Connected to your CRM, Guardian knows your real customers and suppliers, so a look-alike address or an unexpected “new bank details” email stands out.
  • Your normal, not everyone’s. Traveling teams, remote sites and seasonal staff stop looking like attacks once Guardian knows how you work.
  • Watching your own apps. Guardian can work alongside the apps you build in Forge, and your apps and AI agents can ask Guardian for help in return.
  • Fixes ranked for you. Guardian puts the changes that matter most to your business first and drafts a step-by-step plan, testing risky changes before they’re enforced.
  • A view into your operations you control. You decide every system Guardian may see, and you can change it at any time.
TUNED, NEVER WEAKENED

Your context sharpens Guardian. It never lowers the bar.

Guardian’s checks are measured against Microsoft’s recommended settings. Tuning adds what Guardian knows about you. It doesn’t move the standard.

That’s the difference between Guardian and asking a chatbot about security. Guardian’s findings come from real checks of your Microsoft 365. Its AI explains them, ranks them and helps you act. It never makes them up.

Read-only by design

Guardian looks at everything it needs and changes nothing. It reports and recommends; your people decide and make the changes.

Private to your business

Your Guardian runs in your own Forge under its own identity, with no password to steal. What it learns about your business stays with your business and is never shared with another client.

For your administrators only

Only the people you choose can sign in to Guardian. Vulcan365 staff join as invited guests, so you can always see who has access.

Growing with every release

Because Guardian lives in Forge, new checks and abilities reach you as they’re released: alerts as incidents unfold, reviews of devices, app permissions, admin roles and guest access, and changes applied for you once an admin approves them.

QUESTIONS BUSINESS OWNERS ASK

Straight answers.

What does “Managed Intelligence as a Service” mean?

Vulcan365 sets up, runs and keeps Guardian current for you, like a managed service. The intelligence is yours: Guardian runs in your own Forge and learns your business, instead of being a one-size-fits-all service shared with everyone.

Do we need Forge to use Guardian?

Guardian runs in Forge, and Vulcan365 sets that up as part of getting you started. You don’t need to build anything to use it.

Will Guardian change our settings?

No. Guardian only reads. It tells you what to change, why and where. Your administrators stay in control.

Which Microsoft 365 plan do we need?

Microsoft 365 Business Premium covers Guardian’s first reviews. Extra Microsoft security add-ons let it see more, and Guardian tells you plainly what it can’t check without them.

What if we already use other security tools?

Keep them. Guardian gives you the same baseline view, explains it in plain language and adds the context of your own business, which other tools don’t have.

YOUR BUSINESS. YOUR GUARDIAN.

Security as good as the leaders,
tuned to the way you work.

We’ll show you what Guardian finds in your Microsoft 365, and how it can learn your business from there.
