Applying a strict test in which only a policy of p=reject counts as protected, nearly three quarters fall short. Because MSPs run email and IT for thousands of downstream customers, an unprotected provider domain is a credible attack path into its entire client base.\n\n74.5%of DACH MSPs are not protected against spoofing\n\n25.5%enforce DMARC with p=reject\n\n1,311MSPs scanned across DE, AT and CH\n\n42.0%have no DMARC reporting (RUA) configured\n\nThe single largest group, 30.4% of providers, sits on p=quarantine, a policy that routes spoofed mail to the spam folder rather than blocking it, and does not count as protected.\n\n## Download the full benchmark\n\nThe complete report with the country breakdown, a Nordrhein-Westfalen spotlight, protection by company size and market segment, the specialist paradox, and RUA reporting visibility.\n\n[Download report (PDF)](https://guardian360.net/reports/guardian360-dach-msp-dmarc-benchmark-2026-en.pdf)\n\nNo registration required.

The report is free to download.\n\n## Key findings\n\n- The gap is proof, not technology. Controls are documented once and then rarely re-tested, until accountability quietly disappears in the annual audit cycle.\n- NIS2 maps to technical evidence more readily than the GDPR. Offer technical proof confidently for NIS2; for the GDPR it stays a complementary building block, and a finding is never a violation on its own.\n- Ownership beats enforcement, but only with a name and a deadline. “IT is responsible” does not hold up with a regulator; every control needs a named, time-stamped owner and a path to senior management.\n- This is the MSP opportunity. SMEs cite a lack of specialised expertise (62%) and internal capacity (39%); MSPs close that gap only if they can show, not just claim, that controls work.\n\n## About this study\n\nGuardian360 held around 100 open, qualitative conversations with German data protection officers, information security officers and auditors between June and July 2026, validating an approach that links technical security findings to GDPR, NIS2 and ISO 27001 obligations. This is not a representative benchmark: the percentages reflect the responses received and should be read as a qualitative tendency, not as statistically robust figures.\n\n## Meet us at TopGolf Oberhausen\n\nThis report was prepared for the Cross-border Cybersecurity Networking Event for MSPs and IT system houses (TopGolf Oberhausen, 2 September 2026), organised by the Netherlands government and InnovationQuarter with Passguard, SecuMailer, SecureMe2, DMARC Advisor and Guardian360.

A Dutch SaaS platform focused on continuous Microsoft 365 and Entra ID hardening and configuration monitoring.\n\nWhat Attic Security is good at\n\nAttic Security is a focused, well-built tool for Microsoft 365 and Entra ID posture: MFA overview, tenant details, configuration drift and CIS M365 benchmark checks. If Microsoft 365 hardening is the single thing you need, it is purpose-built for exactly that.\n\nSide by side\n\n## How they compare\n\n|  | Guardian360 | Attic Security |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Origin & data residency | Netherlands, EU-only | Netherlands (EU) |\n| Delivery model | Partner-only | Partner / direct |\n| Scope | Vulnerability, web app, M365, honeypots & compliance | Microsoft 365 / Entra hardening only |\n| Compliance coverage | 25+ frameworks, continuously mapped | CIS M365 Benchmark only |\n| Intrusion detection | Built-in honeypots | Monitors configuration drift |\n| Microsoft 365 insight | Included as one function | Core function (their strength) |\n| Mobile app | iOS + Android | No |\n| Data sovereignty (EU-only) | Yes | Yes |\n\nBased on publicly available information at the time of writing.

Microsoft 365 insight is one of Guardian360’s capabilities: admin roles, MFA adoption, Secure Score, compromised-account flags and more. Attic Security goes deeper on M365 hardening alone; Guardian360 covers M365 alongside scanning, web app security, intrusion detection and compliance.\n\nBoth are Dutch, why choose Guardian360?\n\nIf you need more than Microsoft 365 hardening, Guardian360 brings vulnerability scanning, web application security, honeypot-based intrusion detection and continuous compliance mapping together in one EU-hosted platform, delivered through your partner.\n\n## See it on your own environment\n\nRun a free Quickscan, start a trial, or talk to a partner.

The US market leader in vulnerability management, with deep scanning and broad container and cloud coverage for large enterprises.\n\nWhat Tenable is good at\n\nTenable (Nessus, Tenable.io) is one of the most established names in vulnerability management. Its scanning depth, plugin library and container and cloud coverage are mature and enterprise-grade, and it is a strong fit for large security teams that run their own programme.\n\nSide by side\n\n## How they compare\n\n|  | Guardian360 | Tenable |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Origin & data residency | Netherlands, EU-only | US vendor (EU hosting available) |\n| Delivery model | Partner-only | Direct + partner |\n| Deployment | Agentless SaaS | Scanners + agents |\n| Compliance coverage | 25+ frameworks, continuously mapped | Audit files; manual mapping |\n| Intrusion detection | Built-in honeypots | Not included |\n| Microsoft 365 insight | Included | No |\n| Container & cloud scanning | Planned for 2026 | Yes |\n| Smallest client | From 10 employees / IPs | Typically 100+ assets |\n\nBased on publicly available information at the time of writing.

Guardian360 covers daily vulnerability scanning and adds compliance mapping, intrusion detection and Microsoft 365 insight in one EU-hosted, partner-delivered platform. Very large enterprises with deep container and cloud needs may still prefer Tenable’s scanning depth today.\n\nWhat is the main difference?\n\nTenable is a best-in-class scanner you operate yourself.

Your team knows the technical side; turning that into a board-level conversation takes a layer your current toolchain does not give you.\n\nWhat this means for your business\n\n## A new line of business, on your terms\n\n### A new advisory revenue stream\n\nCompliance retainers, CISO-as-a-service, audit support and recurring business-risk reporting move you from one-off tickets to strategic services your customers already ask for.\n\n### Customer stickiness that compounds\n\nOnce your customer uses your platform to discuss security with their board, you are inside the strategic conversation. Replacing you costs continuity, not just tools.\n\n### Lower operational overhead\n\nAgentless deployment, one platform replacing four or five point tools, and a single multi-tenant console mean fewer engineer hours spent stitching reports together.\n\nYour relationship stays your relationship\n\n## No channel conflict, ever\n\nGuardian360 sells only through partners. We never compete with you for your customer, and we never go around you. Multi-tenant dashboards and partner-branded reporting keep each customer clearly yours.\n\nWhy Guardian360\n\n## Built for partners, made in Europe\n\n![Cybersecurity Made in Europe label](https://guardian360.net/img/ecso-cybersecurity-made-in-europe.png)\n\n### Partner-first, MSP-built\n\nMulti-tenant is how the platform was architected, not a feature bolted on later.\n\n### European by design\n\nEU data residency on Dutch servers, and 25+ European frameworks, including BIO, NEN, BSI, TISAX, NIS2 and DORA.\n\n### Continuous, not periodic\n\nYour customer’s posture is current today, not last quarter. The foundation for advisory conversations that hold up.\n\n### A clear forward path\n\nAI Agents coming online to compress time-to-fix and support your team with new skills continuously.\n\nPartner enablement\n\n## Free training for your team\n\nNew partners get up to speed fast.
