    <title language="eng">Can the Microsoft Azure Security Suite be a practical solution for SMBs when analysing and protecting existing IT infrastructure?</title>
    <abstract language="eng">Small and medium sized businesses (SMB) face ever growing cyber security risks and are for this reason longing for solutions to mitigate those risks. Thus, it is this thesis’ goal to investigate whether the cloud-based security tools offered by Microsoft Azure can fulfil the task from a technical point of view.&#13;
For this examination, two main research routes were chosen. The first route looks at security from a tool perspective and through practical case studies in SMB IT environments that include five common threats and needs of cyber security: hacking, phishing, viruses, monitoring, and internal threats. The second route investigates questions about full cloud-based security usage and implementation from a policy and compliance standpoint. It also offers practical solutions and considerations of SMB IT administrators and business leaders.&#13;
This thesis research result is that the Azure security suit offers a decent toolset for SMB IT security. However, the actual technical tool choice is only secondary in consideration, since the human component remains to be the one having to prevail against most cyber threats.</abstract>
