What does ABT do?
Access Business Technologies (ABT) manages and secures Microsoft 365 tenants for regulated financial institutions. ABT handles tenant hardening, Conditional Access policies, Intune device compliance, Defender configuration, and Purview governance so that mortgage lenders, credit unions, and community banks can meet GLBA, FTC Safeguards Rule, and GSE cybersecurity requirements without building an in-house security operations team.
Who is ABT?
ABT was founded in 1999 and is headquartered in Folsom, California. All three original founders still lead the company. ABT is a Tier 1 Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider, one of the first 15 CSPs globally, with SOC 1 and SOC 2 attestation reports. ABT currently supports 750 plus active customers, over 90 percent of which are financial institutions.
What is ABT Guardian?
Guardian is ABT's managed operating model for Microsoft 365. It wraps around a client's existing tenant and applies a four-phase lifecycle: Hardening, Monitoring, Insights, and Response. Guardian uses Microsoft-native tools including Entra ID, Intune, Defender for Office 365, Purview, and Conditional Access. Guardian provides continuous configuration drift detection, compliance monitoring, and incident response.
What can I discuss with an ABT expert?
The Talk to an Expert form covers eight areas: Microsoft 365 security hardening and Secure Score improvement, AI readiness and Copilot governance, GSE audit preparation for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac requirements, license optimization and cost reduction, cyber insurance evidence packs and underwriter questionnaires, Microsoft 365 licensing through ABT as a Tier 1 CSP, interfaces and integrations with loan origination systems and other line-of-business platforms, and general consulting for organizations that are not sure where to start.
How does ABT connect Microsoft 365 to business systems?
ABT builds and maintains interfaces that connect Microsoft 365 with loan origination systems like Encompass and Byte, CRM platforms, accounting software, servicing systems, data warehouses, and internal APIs. These integrations use Azure Logic Apps, Functions, Runbooks, and Data Factory to ground AI agents in real data and reduce manual processes across systems.

Before you send it
What to expect
What happens after I submit this form?
Your answers route to the ABT specialist who works on that area, and someone replies within one business day. The first conversation is a scoping call. We ask what you are running today, what is prompting the question, and what your timeline looks like, then tell you whether we are the right fit.
Do I need to be an existing ABT customer?
No. Most people who use this form are not customers yet. Some are comparing Microsoft 365 partners, some have a specific audit or renewal deadline, and some want a second opinion on something their current provider told them. All three are good reasons to get in touch.
Will I be talking to a salesperson or someone technical?
Whoever fits the question. A licensing question goes to the team that manages Microsoft 365 tenants every day. A security or audit question goes to someone who has sat through those examinations alongside other institutions. If the answer needs an engineer, an engineer joins the call.
What should I have ready before the call?
Nothing is required. If you have a recent Microsoft invoice, a rough seat count, or the name of the loan origination system you run, the first call gets specific faster. Bring what you have and we will work from there.
Can you help if another provider manages our Microsoft 365 today?
Yes, and it is a common starting point. ABT is a Tier 1 Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider, so changing providers transfers the billing and management relationship, not the tenant itself. Your users, your mailboxes and your files stay exactly where they are. We can also simply review what you have and give you an opinion.
