Office 365 security spelled out

Every Office 365 subscription comes with security capabilities. The goals and actions that you can take depend on the focus of these different subscriptions. In Office 365 security, there are three main security services (or products) tied to your subscription type:

  1. Exchange Online Protection (EOP)
  2. Microsoft Defender for Office 365 Plan 1 (Defender for Office P1)
  3. Microsoft Defender for Office 365 Plan 2 (Defender for Office P2)

Note

If you bought your subscription and need to roll out security features right now, skip to the steps in the Protect Against Threats article. If you're new to your subscription and would like to know your license before you begin, browse Billing > Your Products in the Microsoft 365 admin center.

Office 365 security builds on the core protections offered by EOP. EOP is present in any subscription where Exchange Online mailboxes can be found (remember, all the security products discussed here are Cloud-based).

You may be accustomed to seeing these three components discussed in this way:

Prevents broad, volume-based, known attacks.Protects email and collaboration from zero-day malware, phish, and business email compromise.Adds post-breach investigation, hunting, and response, as well as automation, and simulation (for training).

But in terms of architecture, let's start by thinking of each piece as cumulative layers of security, each with a security emphasis. More like this:

Though each of these services emphasizes a goal from among Protect, Detect, Investigate, and Respond, all the services can carry out any of the goals of protecting, detecting, investigating, and responding.

The core of Office 365 security is EOP protection. Microsoft Defender for Office 365 P1 contains EOP in it. Defender for Office 365 P2 contains P1 and EOP. The structure is cumulative. That's why, when configuring this product, you should start with EOP and work to Defender for Office 365.
