Peritus Achieves Microsoft Accreditation and Launches New 365 Security & Optimisation Services 

We’re proud to announce that Peritus Cloud Security has been recognised by Microsoft as an accredited solutions provider, strengthening our position as a trusted partner for organisations using Microsoft 365. 

This accreditation reflects our technical capability, customer success, and ongoing commitment to helping businesses improve their cloud security posture and marks an exciting new chapter for Peritus as we continue to grow our Microsoft practice. 

A growing challenge for Microsoft 365 users 

Microsoft 365 has become the foundation of collaboration for millions of organisations. But as the platform expands, so does its complexity. 

Licensing overlaps, unused entitlements, and misconfigured security settings are now some of the most common issues we see across customer environments. These inefficiencies often result in unnecessary spend, weakened security, and uncertainty around compliance. 

Our new Microsoft-accredited service is designed to help customers take control of that complexity and turn visibility into real improvement. 

Introducing SCOUT for Microsoft 365 

To support this, we’ve launched SCOUT for Microsoft 365, a cloud-based analysis platform that gives organisations a clear, data-driven view of how their Microsoft environment is being used. 

SCOUT provides a secure, read-only assessment that identifies: 

  • Underused or inactive licences 

  • Duplicated features and misaligned subscriptions 

  • Security gaps and configuration weaknesses 

The result is a detailed report that highlights where spend can be reduced, efficiency improved, and risk eliminated, all using data directly from your Microsoft 365 environment. 

 

From visibility to action 

Insight alone isn’t enough. That’s where Peritus adds value. 

We work with customers to interpret the results from SCOUT, prioritise next steps, and implement lasting improvements. Whether it’s reclaiming wasted licences, tightening access controls, or enhancing compliance, we help ensure every change delivers measurable impact. 

Our accredited status also means customers benefit from Microsoft-aligned best practices throughout the process, ensuring recommendations fit seamlessly within the broader Microsoft ecosystem. 

Start with a Microsoft 365 Health Check 

To introduce the service, we’re offering a Microsoft 365 Health Check, powered by SCOUT. It’s a quick, read-only assessment that requires no downtime or disruption. 

Within days, you’ll receive a concise report showing where efficiencies and risk reductions can be achieved with typical results revealing 17–37% potential cost savings and efficiency gains

 

A milestone for Peritus and our customers 

Earning accredited Microsoft partner status is an important milestone for Peritus Cloud Security. It recognises the depth of our technical expertise and the impact we’re delivering for UK organisations looking to strengthen and optimise their cloud environments. 

We’re excited to continue working alongside Microsoft to help customers build more secure, efficient, and resilient businesses, starting with visibility.
