Microsoft 365 Security, Compliance & Governance
Turning Microsoft 365's powerful capabilities into a connected governance program that leadership can understand, employees can follow, and auditors can verify.
The real challenge isn't the tools — it's the program.
My work aligns with Microsoft's AI governance, security, and service-level expectations — including responsible AI use, Zero Trust architecture, and secure operation of cloud and AI services. This approach treats AI governance as part of operational risk management, ensuring compliance and accountability.
Service Areas
Zero Trust & Security Governance
Connect Microsoft Entra, Intune, Defender, and Purview into a coordinated security model—verifying identity, device health, threat posture, and data sensitivity before access is granted. This includes Conditional Access, multifactor authentication, security posture reviews, application governance, and documented control ownership.
Microsoft Purview Compliance & Data Protection
Protect sensitive information through classification, sensitivity labels, encryption, data loss prevention, retention, audit logging, eDiscovery, and insider-risk controls. The goal is not simply to deploy tools—it is to create defensible evidence and consistent data-handling practices across Microsoft 365.
Microsoft Entra Identity & Access Governance
Reduce excessive and outdated access through Conditional Access, risk-based authentication, access reviews, lifecycle governance, least-privilege roles, and time-bound administrative access. These controls help ensure that employees, contractors, vendors, and applications retain only the access they need.
Business Email & Website Security
Protect your business from impersonation, phishing, fraud, and brand abuse. Proper email authentication and website security controls reduce the risk of spoofing, domain hijacking, and credential theft — and signal trustworthiness to customers and partners.
Security & Compliance Advisory
Reduce risk while building a security program that evolves with your business. Practical policies, vendor oversight, and compliance readiness — without the overhead of a full-time security team.
AI & Emerging Threat Protection
As cybercriminals increasingly use AI, your defenses need to evolve too. This service addresses AI-driven risks — from deepfake impersonation to AI-generated phishing — and builds the governance policies and monitoring practices to stay ahead.
Continuous Security Management
Security isn't a one-time project — it's an ongoing process. Monthly security management keeps your controls current, your team informed, and your leadership confident that risk is being actively managed.
Engagement Process
How an engagement works
A structured approach that moves from understanding your environment to building controls you can sustain.
Discovery
We start with a structured review of your current Microsoft 365 environment — tenant configuration, existing policies, identity posture, and compliance gaps. No assumptions, just evidence.
Assessment & Prioritization
I map findings against your risk tolerance, regulatory requirements, and operational constraints — then prioritize controls by impact and feasibility so you know exactly where to start.
Implementation
Controls are configured, documented, and tested in your environment. Every change is tracked with clear ownership so your team understands what was built and why.
Documentation & Handoff
You receive policy documentation, control evidence, and operational runbooks — everything an auditor needs and everything your team needs to maintain the program going forward.
