How we work

A method you can inspect before you buy.

Enterprise security doesn't need heroics; it needs discipline. Our delivery model is the same on every engagement — measured, staged, documented, and transferred.

  1. 01

    Assess

    Typically 2–4 weeks

    Evidence-based measurement of your current state against Microsoft security baselines, CIS Benchmarks, and framework control objectives. Least-privilege, time-bound access — documented and auditable.

    Artifacts you keep

    • · Findings report, risk-ranked by exploitability and business impact
    • · Prioritized remediation roadmap
    • · Executive summary presentation
  2. 02

    Design

    Scope-dependent

    Architecture and policy design mapped to your business, licensing, and regulatory context — Conditional Access architectures, Sentinel data strategy, Purview control frameworks, governance models. Reviewed with your team before anything changes.

    Artifacts you keep

    • · Design documents and policy architectures
    • · Rollout plans with staged waves and rollback paths
    • · Licensing gap analysis — what to use, what not to buy
  3. 03

    Implement

    Wave-based

    Hands-on engineering with report-only and pilot phases before enforcement. Disruption is managed, not discovered: break-glass accounts, staged policies, measured impact, user communication.

    Artifacts you keep

    • · Configured controls, delivered as code where possible
    • · Configuration documentation and runbooks
    • · Before/after evidence (Secure Score, posture metrics)
  4. 04

    Operate

    Ongoing or handover

    Your choice: a managed subscription that keeps posture, detections, and compliance continuously tuned — or a full handover with runbooks, training, and metrics so your team runs it.

    Artifacts you keep

    • · Monthly posture and risk reporting (engineer + executive formats)
    • · Detection tuning logs and improvement roadmaps
    • · Knowledge transfer sessions and operations handbooks

Delivery model

Remote delivery, refined

Structured communication, documented decisions, and overlap hours matched to your team — across EMEA, Americas, and APAC. On-site available where an engagement genuinely needs it.
