Microsoft 365 Management
Microsoft 365 administration, managed.
Microsoft 365 is the operating system for most businesses we work with — and almost no one has it tuned. We administer licenses, identity, device policy, security baselines, and backup as a single managed service. Huntress Managed ITDR sits on top to catch account takeover and malicious OAuth consent before it spreads.

Frequently asked
Do I need Huntress ITDR if I already have Microsoft Defender?+
Yes, in our experience. Defender catches phishing and known malicious sign-ins. Huntress Managed ITDR catches the slower, sneakier patterns — malicious OAuth consent, business email compromise, account takeover follow-through. They're complementary, not redundant.
Can you help us roll out Microsoft Copilot safely?+
Yes — that’s Copilot readiness: identity, DLP/labels, sharing hygiene, and licensing before enablement. We don’t claim to build custom AI apps for every department; we make the tenant safe enough to turn Copilot on.
Can you migrate us from on-prem Exchange / Active Directory?+
Yes. Hybrid migrations, mailbox cutover, identity cleanup, retention policy mapping. Project-based engagement separate from ongoing managed admin.
What about backups — doesn't Microsoft handle that?+
Microsoft handles infrastructure availability. They don't protect you from deletion, ransomware, malicious admin, or retention misconfiguration. A third-party SaaS backup covers that gap; we recommend the platform that fits your retention and compliance requirements rather than pushing one product.
Can you harden our email against BEC as part of M365 admin?+
Yes — Defender tuning, forwarding audits, and Huntress ITDR are part of a serious M365 engagement. Full program detail lives on /email-security; Copilot readiness on /ai.
Do you manage Microsoft 365 for Lincoln and Omaha businesses?+
Yes. Tenant hardening, Intune, Defender, backup, and Copilot readiness for Lincoln and Omaha-metro tenants — including mixed Google + M365 shops. Same Hickman-based team; no storefront required.
Lincoln & Omaha — how this actually shows up locally
Lincoln, NE
Lincoln, NE hubMicrosoft 365 admin for Lincoln offices and clinics.
Most Lincoln tenants we inherit still have shared mailboxes without MFA, forwarding nobody remembers, and Copilot licensed before sharing hygiene. We fix identity first, then email, then AI features — from Hickman, covering the metro.
Omaha, NE
Omaha, NE hubOmaha-metro M365 for multi-site professional services.
Omaha firms often run hybrid identity across downtown and suburban sites. We standardize Entra, Intune, and Defender so a satellite office isn’t the weak link — and we won’t turn Copilot on until oversharing is cleaned up.
