Coverage

Full Azure and Microsoft 365 coverage

Multi-cloud platforms are built and priced for teams running AWS, Azure and GCP. If your estate is Azure and Microsoft 365, you pay for breadth you don’t need, and device and alert risk from Intune and Defender still sits outside the view.

Microsoft 365 monitoring
Intune device compliance and Defender alerts next to SharePoint and OneDrive exposure, correlated with your Azure risk context in one view.
Azure identity governance
Over-privileged RBAC roles, dormant service principals, MFA gaps, and PIM risks, modelled natively for Entra ID, not through a multi-cloud abstraction layer.
NIS2 & NIST CSF compliance
Compliance frameworks mapped to live Azure and M365 findings, with automated evidence collection, gap reports, and remediation guidance tied to specific resources.

— Partial support  ·  Wiz covers AWS, GCP, and Azure. TENET is purpose-built for Azure and Microsoft 365.

Setup

Up and running in two minutes

Enterprise CNAPP platforms require a demo request, a sales conversation, and a custom proposal before you have seen a single finding in your environment. That is a cost before the cost, for a tool you have not yet evaluated.

TENET paid plans start at $174/month billed annually ($249/month billed monthly), with a 14-day free trial. Connect via read-only API with no agents or scanners and first findings appear in the same session.

For a lean security team, time-to-value is not a nice-to-have. It is the difference between a tool that gets used and one that does not.

Coverage that matches the threat

Wiz for Microsoft 365 adds SharePoint, OneDrive, Exchange and Entra ID posture to its cloud graph. Intune device compliance and Microsoft Defender alerts are not part of its announced coverage.

Non-compliant Intune devices become entry points and Defender alerts go unread in another portal. TENET puts Defender, Intune, SharePoint and OneDrive risk next to your Azure data in one view.

Identity Risk

Identity governance built for Entra ID

Identity is where most Azure breaches start: an over-privileged service principal, a dormant guest account with Contributor access, an app registration with admin consent no one remembers approving. These are routine findings.

Multi-cloud CIEM uses a lowest-common-denominator identity model, which is generic where Microsoft-only environments need depth. TENET models Entra ID, RBAC, service principals and PIM natively, linking risky roles to attack paths.

Compliance mapped to NIS2

If you are subject to NIS2, your auditors are not asking for a CIS benchmark score. They want evidence tied to specific articles, and they want it generated from your actual environment, not a spreadsheet you completed yourself.

TENET maps every Azure and M365 finding to specific NIS2 articles and NIST CSF 2.0 controls, with evidence collected automatically. When an open NSG creates a gap, it names the article, resource and remediation steps.

Ask questions in plain language

Most security platforms assume you have an analyst to interpret them. Dashboards, risk scores, and event logs are useful if someone has the time to work through them. Most SMB security teams do not have that person.

BriteAI is built into TENET. Ask about attack paths, identity exposure, compliance gaps or anomalies in plain language and get answers from live data. The TENET MCP lets SRE agents run fixes, with human approval for sensitive operations.

BriteAI

Which identities have an active attack path to a Key Vault?

B

Found 3 identities with an active attack path to Key Vault resources:

svc-infra-prod-01Owner → kv-prod-secrets · 2 hops
vm-backend-02MSI → kv-prod-secrets via RBAC · 3 hops

Remediation: remove Owner from svc-infra-prod-01 and scope MSI access to specific secrets.

Which NIS2 article does this violation map to?

B

This maps to NIS2 Article 21(2)(e) — access control policies. The over-Owner finding creates a gap in access minimisation requirements. Already flagged in your compliance report.

FAQs

We use Azure but may expand to AWS or GCP. Is TENET the right fit?
If multi-cloud breadth is a current requirement, there are platforms built specifically for that and they may be the right choice. TENET is purpose-built for Azure and Microsoft 365. That means greater depth in the Microsoft stack, M365 device and alert risk, and NIS2-specific compliance workflows, but not AWS or GCP coverage. If Azure and M365 are your environment now and for the foreseeable future, TENET gives you significantly more for that stack.
How is TENET's attack path analysis different from other cloud security platforms?

TENET's attack paths are built specifically around Azure constructs (Entra ID, RBAC, service principals, Key Vault access chains) and mapped to MITRE ATT&CK techniques. Multi-cloud platforms model attack paths across cloud providers but with less depth in the Microsoft-specific identity and access model that matters most in Azure environments.

Read more about attack paths and the security graph.

Do we still need Microsoft Defender for Cloud alongside TENET?
Yes. TENET is built to sit alongside Defender for Cloud, not replace it. Defender signals feed TENET as one of many data sources, where they are combined with identity risk, compliance posture and anomaly detection.
How long does it take to see value?

Setup takes around two minutes. TENET connects to your Azure environment via read-only API access, with no agents or scanners to deploy. Most teams see their first meaningful findings within the same session they sign up.

Run the free Self-Service Assessment to see your own findings ranked by risk.

What does TENET cost, and can I try it before speaking to sales?

TENET paid plans start at $174/month billed annually ($249/month billed monthly), with a 14-day free trial and no credit card required. You can try it before any conversation with us. Enterprise CNAPP platforms typically do not publish pricing. You need to contact their sales team and go through a scoping call before seeing a number. TENET is also available directly through the Azure Marketplace.
