# Security Posture

Security Posture audits a connected Microsoft 365 tenant's configuration against security best practices, scores how compliant it is, and gives you a way to fix what's out of line — either check by check or in bulk with a reusable remediation bundle.

[See every check Augmentt evaluates](/modules/secure/security-posture/all-posture-checks.md), or read on for what each part of this section does.

The section has three parts, shown in the left-hand menu as **Security Posture > Compliance Audit / Posture Templates / Audit**:

## Compliance Audit

The current, actively-developed way to audit a tenant. It's built around three tabs — **Audit** (run checks and see pass/fail results), **Protect** (apply fixes for what's failing), and **Assessments** (choose what checklist you're auditing against, from an Augmentt-provided framework like CIS or NIST, or a custom list you build yourself).

[Read the Compliance Audit guide](/modules/secure/security-posture/compliance-audit.md)

## Posture Templates

A Posture Template is a reusable bundle of target configuration values — for example, "MFA required for all users" plus "block legacy authentication" — that you can apply to one or many tenants in a couple of clicks, instead of fixing each setting by hand. Templates work with both Compliance Audit and the legacy Audit tool below.

## Audit

{% hint style="warning" %}
This is the **legacy** version of tenant auditing, shown with a "Legacy" badge in the menu. It's being retired in favor of Compliance Audit above, which covers the same ground with more flexibility (multiple assessments, custom checklists). Existing customers can still use it, but new setups should start with Compliance Audit.
{% endhint %}

The original Audit/Protect experience, scoped to a single fixed checklist rather than swappable assessments.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://helpdesk.augmentt.com/modules/secure/security-posture.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
