What is a good Microsoft Secure Score for a small business?

For many small businesses, 65–80% is a practical target. Yet when we assess small businesses in Los Angeles, many start between 30% and 45%.

That number is more than an IT metric. Microsoft Secure Score provides a snapshot of your Microsoft 365 security configuration across areas such as:

• Identity and sign-in security
• Device management and encryption
• Email and application protection
• Data protection

It is also important to understand what Secure Score does not measure. It evaluates whether security controls are configured—not whether your business can guarantee it will never experience an incident. And your Microsoft 365 license can create a ceiling on the controls available to you.

If your score is lower than you want, the most valuable improvements often include:

• Enforcing MFA for every user and administrator
• Establishing a conditional access baseline
• Blocking legacy authentication
• Configuring Microsoft Defender for Office 365
• Enrolling company devices in Intune
• Reviewing accounts, passwords, and external forwarding

The goal is not necessarily a perfect 100%. A well-configured 65–80% score that fits your business can be more valuable than chasing every available point and creating unnecessary friction for users.

Our latest guide explains Secure Score benchmarks, the licensing considerations behind them, and a practical approach to improving your Microsoft 365 security posture.

Is your Los Angeles small business still running an older VMware ESXi host?

With VMware licensing and support changes, it may be time to review your options. For many small businesses, Hyper-V can be a practical path forward—especially when you run mostly Windows workloads and already have Windows Server licensing. The cloud may also make sense for smaller environments.

Our latest guide walks through VMware vs. Hyper-V, backup and testing considerations, and how to plan a smooth migration.

A network switch may not be the most visible part of your IT environment, but it plays a major role in how a Los Angeles small business runs every day.

If your business is dealing with slow connections, dropped phones, offline devices, or aging network hardware, it may be time to look at your switch infrastructure.

Our latest blog explains what a network switch does, how to choose the right setup, and what to expect during installation. It also connects closely with our recent firewall post, since switch segmentation and firewall protection work best together for Los Angeles small businesses.
