How it works

Evidence first. Every step.

We don’t hand you a template and wish you luck. We measure against an industry baseline, fix what matters, and keep proving it — with deliverables that stand up to scrutiny.

1. 01

   Kickoff & discovery

   A short, recorded workshop and a discovery questionnaire. We learn your systems, your regulatory drivers, and what you’ve already attested to.

2. 02

   Evidence collection

   We gather real evidence from your Microsoft 365 tenant, endpoints, and on-prem infrastructure — then walk all 56 CIS IG1 safeguards and cite proof for each.

3. 03

   Risk assessment

   We run a full NIST SP 800-30 risk assessment — the federal standard. Each threat is rated for how likely it is and how badly it would hurt, using evidence rather than opinion, and every rating comes with the reasoning written down. This is what tells you which gap to fix first.

4. 04

   Score & roadmap

   Every safeguard is scored Met, Partial, Gap, or N/A. You get a 0–100% maturity score, your current and residual risk profile, and a roadmap sequenced by risk rather than by whatever is easiest.

5. 05

   Remediate the gaps

   We turn the priority controls on — Microsoft 365 hardening, access fixes, governance docs — announcing any change before it lands, then re-score to prove the lift.

6. 06

   Monitor & report

   We watch for drift 24/7, auto-remediate what we can, and deliver a monthly report and quarterly review — so the trend line stays in your favor.
