What are Microsoft Funded Engagements?
Microsoft Funded Engagements, also known as the Cybersecurity Investment (CSI) programme, are multi-day workshops delivered by specialist Microsoft partners, where their product experts will guide you on how to maximise value and/ or deploy Microsoft products. If your organisation meets eligibility status, Microsoft will fund the engagement on your behalf. In simple terms, you will get a free engagement with our Microsoft experts about the products you’re interested in.
We offer four engagements, specifically focused on Microsoft Security products:
- Threat Protection (SIEM and XDR)
- Modern SecOps (Sentinel)
- Data Security (Purview)
- Managed XDR
The Benefits of a Microsoft Funded Engagement
By attending one of our engagements, you’ll:
Learn how to maximise value from Microsoft products you’ve already invested in, including detailed guidance on optimisation and the deployment of new capabilities
Understand the potential of Microsoft products you’re not currently using, with a view to how they should be deployed and how this would benefit your organisation
Gain tailored advice, specific to your organisational challenges and goals, from one of our Microsoft security experts
Am I Eligible for an Engagement?
Your eligibility for a workshop depends on the number of E3 or E5 licenses your organisation currently has, how they’re being used, and if you’ve taken any similar workshops within the last 9 months. You can quickly and easily check your eligibility by contacting our team.
