Microsoft 365 Admin & Governance

Make Microsoft 365 predictable, secure, and easier to run. We harden Entra ID, tame sharing defaults, align compliance, and prepare you for Copilot-without slowing the business down.

Outcomes we deliver

  • Security baseline: MFA/Conditional Access, session hardening, privileged roles under control
  • Sharing & lifecycle: guest access rules, sensitivity labels, DLP policies that reflect risk
  • Compliance & records: retention labels/policies, eDiscovery with clear SOPs
  • Copilot readiness: least-surprise defaults, labeling strategy, safe data access patterns

Typical engagements

Baseline & quick wins (2–4 weeks)

Rapid posture review, legacy auth block plan, CA cleanup, and guest sharing defaults.

Governance rollout (4–8 weeks)

Labels/DLP, eDiscovery alignment, admin SOPs, and site/team provisioning rules.

Process that keeps momentum

  1. Discovery & posture review (lightweight, targeted)
  2. Plan & backlog with risk/impact, mapped to business timelines
  3. Iterative changes with rollback points and change notes
  4. Validation & handover with admin-ready documentation

FAQs

Do we need E5 for this?

Not necessarily. We map what you own (E3 + add-ons) to outcomes, then identify gaps if any.

Will this slow collaboration?

No-governance is designed to reduce risk without adding daily friction for users.
