Zero Trust Microsoft Entra Assessment
Fixed-Cost Identity Security Workshops With Tooling-Driven Reports in Days, Not Weeks
How Secure Is Your Microsoft Entra Environment?
Your Microsoft Entra environment is the front door to everything your organisation depends on: Microsoft 365, Azure, Intune, Defender, Power Platform, and every application that trusts Entra ID for authentication. If your identity layer is not secured to Zero Trust standards, no amount of network security or endpoint protection will compensate. A single misconfigured Conditional Access policy, an overly permissive consent grant, or a dormant privileged account is all it takes for an attacker to move laterally across your entire Microsoft ecosystem.
Entraneer's Zero Trust assessment gives you a clear, evidence-based picture of your identity security posture. We bring specialist tooling into your environment that automates data collection and analysis, delivering comprehensive findings in days rather than the weeks or months that traditional assessments require. All delivered at a fixed cost with no surprises.

Tooling-Driven
Purpose-built identity security tools automate analysis and deliver comprehensive reports in days, not weeks.
Microsoft Services Are Interconnected. Identity Secures Them All
Your Microsoft environment is a connected ecosystem. Entra ID is the identity fabric that ties it all together. Securing identity means securing everything.
Microsoft 365
Exchange Online, SharePoint, Teams, and OneDrive all rely on Entra ID for authentication and authorisation. Misconfigured sharing policies, weak authentication requirements, or excessive admin roles in M365 undermine your security regardless of what Entra policies you have in place. We assess how your M365 security settings align with your Entra ID Conditional Access and authentication policies.
Microsoft Intune
Device compliance policies in Intune feed directly into Conditional Access decisions in Entra ID. If Intune compliance baselines are not properly configured, your Conditional Access policies that require compliant devices have nothing meaningful to enforce. We assess the integration between Intune compliance, device trust, and Entra Conditional Access to ensure your device posture requirements are actually enforced end to end.
Microsoft Defender
Defender for Identity monitors on-premises Active Directory for lateral movement and credential theft. Defender for Cloud Apps provides session controls and app governance. Defender for Endpoint feeds device risk into Conditional Access. These signals only work when they are properly integrated with your Entra ID policies. We assess whether your Defender stack is connected to your identity controls or operating in isolation.
Azure Resources
Azure RBAC, managed identities, and subscription access controls are all governed by Entra ID. Over-privileged Azure role assignments, unused service principals with broad permissions, and missing Conditional Access coverage for Azure management are common findings. We assess your Azure resource access controls as part of the identity security picture because Azure security starts with identity.
Power Platform
Power Apps, Power Automate, and Copilot Studio create data connections and automations that authenticate through Entra ID. Without proper data loss prevention policies and environment governance, these services can exfiltrate data through identity-backed connections. We assess Power Platform governance settings alongside your Entra ID controls to ensure low-code and AI workloads do not bypass your security boundaries.
How the Assessment Works
A structured, tooling-driven methodology that delivers actionable findings in days
1
Discovery Workshop
We run a focused workshop with your identity, security, and infrastructure teams to understand your environment, business context, regulatory obligations, and current concerns. This shapes the assessment scope and ensures findings are relevant to your specific risk profile.
2
Automated Tenant Analysis
We connect our identity security tooling to your tenant using read-only permissions. The tools collect and analyse Conditional Access policies, authentication configurations, role assignments, consent grants, synchronisation settings, and security posture across Entra ID, Microsoft 365, Azure, and Intune, producing detailed findings in hours rather than weeks.
3
Expert Review
Our Entra specialists review the automated findings, validate them against your business context from the discovery workshop, and identify the findings that represent genuine risk versus acceptable exceptions. This expert layer ensures recommendations are practical and prioritised, not just a list of every deviation from a benchmark.
4
Report and Roadmap
We deliver a comprehensive findings report with risk ratings, a prioritised remediation roadmap, and an executive summary suitable for board-level reporting. Each finding includes the specific control to configure, why it matters, and the steps to fix it. We walk your team through every finding and answer questions before the engagement closes.

Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) with Microsoft Entra Private Access and Microsoft Entra Internet Access
Microsoft Entra Private Access replaces legacy VPN infrastructure with Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), enabling users to securely reach private applications and resources without exposing your network to broad lateral movement risk. By verifying identity, device compliance, and risk signals before granting access to each application individually, Private Access enforces the principle of least privilege at the network layer, a core tenet of Zero Trust Network Access / ZTNA.
Microsoft Entra Internet Access provides an identity-aware Secure Web Gateway (SWG) that applies Conditional Access policies to outbound internet traffic. By integrating directly with your Entra ID identity and device signals, Internet Access ensures that web filtering, threat protection, and data loss prevention decisions are anchored to the same Zero Trust controls that govern your application access. Our assessment evaluates your readiness for both Microsoft Entra Private Access and Microsoft Entra Internet Access as part of a comprehensive ZTNA strategy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are you an Australian provider offering Zero Trust Assessments?
Yes. Entraneer is a proudly Australian-owned identity security consultancy based in Australia. Our Zero Trust assessments are delivered by Australian-based Microsoft Entra specialists who understand the local regulatory landscape including the Essential Eight, APRA CPS 234, the Australian Privacy Act, and the Cyber Security Act. We work with Australian organisations across financial services, government, healthcare, education, and enterprise, providing locally delivered engagements with no offshore component.
What does the Zero Trust Entra assessment cover?
The assessment covers your complete Microsoft Entra environment and the Microsoft services that depend on it. This includes Entra ID Conditional Access policies, authentication methods, identity protection, Privileged Identity Management, identity governance, application registrations, cross-tenant access, synchronisation configuration, Microsoft 365 security settings, Intune compliance policies, Microsoft Defender integration, Azure RBAC, and workload identity security. We assess the full identity attack surface — not just Entra ID in isolation.
How long does the assessment take?
Most assessments are completed within five to ten business days from kickoff to final report delivery. We bring purpose-built tooling into the engagement that automates data collection and analysis, allowing us to deliver comprehensive findings in days rather than the weeks or months that traditional consulting assessments require. The timeline includes a discovery workshop, automated tenant analysis, findings review, and a detailed report with prioritised recommendations.
What do you mean by fixed cost?
We deliver our Zero Trust assessment at a fixed price agreed before the engagement begins: no hourly rates, no scope creep, and no surprise invoices. The fixed cost covers the discovery workshop, tooling-driven analysis, findings report, prioritised remediation roadmap, and executive summary. You know exactly what you are paying before we start, and the deliverables are clearly defined. This makes it straightforward to obtain procurement and budget approval.
What tooling do you bring into the engagement?
We use a combination of Microsoft-native and specialist identity security tools that connect to your tenant via read-only permissions. These tools automate the collection of Conditional Access policies, role assignments, authentication configurations, consent grants, synchronisation settings, and security posture data across Entra ID, Microsoft 365, and Azure. Automated analysis identifies misconfigurations, gaps in coverage, overly permissive policies, and deviations from Zero Trust best practices, producing detailed findings that would take weeks to compile manually.
Do you assess Microsoft services beyond Entra ID?
Yes, and this is a critical differentiator. Microsoft services are deeply interconnected. Entra ID is the identity fabric for Microsoft 365, Azure, Intune, Defender, and Power Platform. A Zero Trust assessment that only looks at Entra ID misses critical security gaps in how these services interact. We assess Microsoft 365 sharing and collaboration settings, Intune device compliance integration with Conditional Access, Microsoft Defender for Identity and Cloud Apps policies, Azure resource access controls, and Power Platform governance, because securing identity means securing the full Microsoft ecosystem.
What happens after the assessment?
You receive a detailed report containing findings, risk ratings, and a prioritised remediation roadmap. Each finding includes the specific Microsoft Entra control that should be configured, why it matters from a Zero Trust perspective, and the steps to remediate. We also deliver an executive summary suitable for board-level reporting. If you choose to engage Entraneer for remediation, the assessment findings flow directly into an engineering engagement with no duplicated discovery. Many organisations use the report to justify identity security investment to leadership.
Can the assessment help us meet Essential Eight or APRA CPS 234 requirements?
Yes. Our assessment maps findings against the Essential Eight maturity model and APRA CPS 234 information security requirements, as well as NIST Zero Trust Architecture (SP 800-207) and ISO 27001 Annex A controls. We identify which identity controls support your compliance obligations and where gaps exist. The remediation roadmap is prioritised to address compliance-critical findings first, giving you a clear path to improving your regulatory posture through identity security improvements.
