Understanding Senserva

Senserva makes security posture management software for organisations and service providers running Microsoft 365. It helps IT and security teams find the misconfigurations, risky identities and exploitable weaknesses in their Microsoft cloud tenants, covering identity, devices, email, data protection and endpoints, and then fix them in a controlled way.

It serves both single organisations auditing their own tenant and service providers looking after many.

What Senserva Does

A single tenant carries hundreds of security settings, and they change over time. Senserva checks them deterministically, read-only, through Microsoft’s own APIs, links what it finds to CVEs present in the tenant, reads sign-in and audit logs, and maps the results to compliance frameworks. The next scan confirms whether a fix held.

The software runs on the customer’s own systems rather than in someone else’s cloud. It works completely without AI; when AI is switched on, it proposes changes and a person decides.

Products

Siemserva

Siemserva suits administrators and consultants who need a full picture of a tenant’s security in one run, and a defensible report for auditors afterwards.

  • More than 650 read-only checks in a single scan
  • Findings ranked with CISA KEV, FIRST EPSS and related exploitation data
  • Analysis of Entra sign-in logs, the Microsoft 365 unified audit log, directory audit logs and security alerts
  • PowerShell remediation with change logs and rollback scripts
  • Mapping to CMMC Level 2 (NIST SP 800-171), Microsoft Cloud Security Benchmark and CISA SCuBA
  • HTML reports, CMMC and NIST 800-171 readiness reports with an SPRS estimate, and an SDK for C#, PowerShell and Python

Senserva Drift Manager

Drift Manager is for MSPs, MSSPs, SOCs and enterprises that look after many tenants and need to know when a secure configuration quietly changes.

  • Continuous monitoring of Entra, Intune, Defender, Exchange Online Protection and Sentinel settings
  • CIS-based baselines out of the box, plus custom baselines per tenant or across all tenants
  • Drift events scored for risk and classified by severity
  • Tickets that show the configuration difference, its impact and how to fix it

How It Works

ComponentWhat it does
Siemserva binarySiemserva is one small signed binary with no installer, no agents and no cloud service. It is available as a signed Windows 11 executable and a notarized macOS build for Apple silicon.
Data accessAudits read the tenant through Microsoft’s APIs and never write to it.
StorageResults go to a local SQLite file by default. Teams can instead use Azure Table storage in their own subscription.
Drift Manager serviceDrift Manager is deployed from the Azure Marketplace. Data stays in the customer’s tenant, and the service flags drift without changing the tenant itself.
Multi-tenant deploymentAzure Lighthouse is used to deploy into each customer’s Azure tenant, with one instance per tenant to keep data local, which lets MSPs and MSSPs onboard many customers.

Identities And Systems Covered

Privileged access34 Privileged Identity Management checks (PIM needs Entra ID P2 or E5).
Service principals34 checks on application and service identities.
Authentication42 authentication method checks, plus Conditional Access analysis.
Users and accounts35 user and account checks.
SystemsMicrosoft 365, Entra ID, Intune, Defender, Purview, Azure, Exchange Online Protection, Sentinel settings and endpoints.

Agentic AI Capabilities

AI-Assisted Remediation

AI is an optional layer. When enabled, it drafts fixes that are validated and must be approved before anything changes, and nothing is applied silently.

Own Model And Data Handling

Customers can bring their own model and key, and Senserva never trains on customer data. Prompts are scrubbed before they leave, using tenant aliases and leaving out object IDs and raw Graph payloads.

Senserva MCP

The Senserva MCP lets users query a scan from Claude Desktop or the Claude CLI. Claude asks permission before it uses a Senserva tool, and a demo mode works against a simulated tenant.
