Secure Your Microsoft 365 & AI Tools — Before They Create Risk.
Fractional vCISO & AI governance services for SMBs that need security, compliance, and clarity.
How We Deliver Results
Microsoft 365 Hardening & Configuration
As a trusted IT services provider, we help businesses secure what they already use, turning overlooked features into real protection.
- Most SMBs already use Microsoft 365 and AI tools — but they haven’t configured them for security, compliance, or control.
- Default settings leave businesses exposed to data loss and compliance gaps
- We configure Microsoft 365 for identity, device, and data protection
- Enforce responsible use of tools like Copilot and ChatGPT
- Turn the tools you're already paying for into a security advantage
AI Risk Management
From Copilot to ChatGPT, we help you manage AI risk, enforce responsible use, and align practices with compliance expectations. We assess how AI is being used across your organization — often without oversight — and implement policy and technical controls that keep innovation secure.
- Draft AI Acceptable Use Policies
- Configure Microsoft 365 Copilot governance settings
- Monitor for Shadow AI usage across your environment
- Align AI practices with regulatory and security frameworks
Compliance Support
Whether you're preparing for CMMC or simply need a stronger cybersecurity posture, we guide you every step of the way. Our team of IT and cybersecurity professionals delivers expert implementation, policy development, and hands-on support — not just advice.

- Build policies and procedures aligned with daily operations
- Implement Microsoft 365 controls that meet audit standards

🚨 Shadow AI Is Growing Faster Than You Think
Shadow AI refers to the use of artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT or Copilot by employees without IT oversight — often leading to security, compliance, and data privacy risks.
