Organizations rely on Microsoft 365 for their day-to-day work. That environment holds valuable, sensitive business information. That is why it is important to look not only at productivity, but also at the built-in security that comes with your license.
License types and security features
- Business Standard and lower: mainly productivity tools, without advanced security features.
- Business Premium: aimed at SMEs, with advanced security such as Microsoft Defender for Office 365 and Microsoft Intune.
- E3: security comparable to Business Premium, plus unlimited archiving and larger mailboxes.
- E5: the most complete security suite, including advanced threat analysis and automated response.
The key differences
The biggest distinction is that advanced security only becomes available from Business Premium onwards. Lower licenses focus on productivity without strong layers of protection. Are you working with Business Standard or lower? Then an upgrade is often wise to guarantee adequate protection. E5 stands out with the most advanced features, ideal for organizations with higher security requirements.
