Frequently Asked Questions

What are Microsoft Security Envisioning Workshops, and what business outcomes are they designed to deliver?

Microsoft Security Envisioning Workshops are Microsoft‑funded, partner‑led engagements designed to help organizations understand their current security posture, identify risk, and align on a clear security roadmap using Microsoft Security solutions.

The goal is to accelerate security decision making and prepare organizations for real deployment and adoption of Microsoft security technologies.

Which security focus areas are covered?

Security Envisioning Workshops focus on one or more of the following areas:

  • Data Security & Compliance (e.g., Purview)
  • Threat Protection across identities, endpoints, apps, and data
  • Modern SecOps using Microsoft Sentinel
  • Cloud Security with Microsoft Defender for Cloud
  • MXDR / Managed XDR scenarios

Each workshop is aligned to specific Microsoft Security workloads and customer priorities.

How are these workshops funded by Microsoft, and is there a cost to participate?

These workshops are funded by Microsoft through FY26 security incentive programs when eligibility criteria are met. For eligible customers, there is no direct cost for the workshop itself.

Funding covers the partner’s delivery effort and is intended to reduce friction for customers evaluating or expanding Microsoft Security solutions.

Who is eligible to participate in a Microsoft‑funded Security Envisioning Workshop?

Eligibility depends on the workshop type and Microsoft’s targeting criteria, but typically includes:

  • Commercial customers (Enterprise, SMC, or eligible SMB)
  • Customers with an Azure tenant and valid identifiers (Tenant ID / TPID)
  • Customers who meet Microsoft’s prioritization or security readiness thresholds

Strategic or excluded segments may not qualify for certain workshops.

What does a typical Security Envisioning Workshop include?

A typical workshop includes:

  • A structured, interactive session (often 1–3 days depending on scope)
  • Review of the customer’s current environment and security challenges
  • Mapping risks and gaps to Microsoft Security capabilities
  • Demonstrations or technical deep dives where appropriate
  • Clear recommendations, next steps, and deployment options

Workshops are designed to be practical, not theoretical.

What customer information is required to schedule and qualify?

To qualify and schedule a workshop, Microsoft typically requires:

  • Customer Tenant ID and TPID
  • Confirmation of customer eligibility and targeting
  • Agreement on workshop scope and focus area

This information ensures the engagement aligns with Microsoft funding and reporting requirements.

What happens after the workshop?

After the workshop, customers receive:

  • A summary of findings and recommendations
  • A prioritized security roadmap
  • Clear options for next steps, which may include Microsoft‑funded or co‑funded deployment engagements

The workshop is intentionally designed to move customers from insight to action, not stop at assessment.
