Key Differentiators

Key Differentiators

1. You're Hiring an official CIS Benchmark Consensus Team Member and Contributor

  • Our founder is a member of the CIS M365 Benchmark Consensus Team which develops the M365 benchmark. 

  • His contributions include dozens of accepted improvements, from refining technical guidance to strengthening rationales and impact statements, and even successfully lobbying for a new control (“2.1.15 (L1) Ensure outbound anti-spam message limits are in place”), which debuted in v6. That means you’re working with someone who understands exactly why each control matters, and how to implement them the right way — fast.

​​

2. You're Getting Enterprise-Grade Expertise, Not Junior Help

  • No offshoring. No junior analysts. Just one highly-certified expert with 10+ years of hands-on experience, including public sector, private industry, and regulated environments. Your M365 tenant isn’t a lab — it’s your business. We treat it that way.

​​

3. You're Paying for Speed and Certainty

  • In just 2 hours of your time, we identify what’s risky in your tenant. In as little as 2 weeks, we close those gaps using CIS-aligned remediation.

  • Other firms drag out timelines, bury you in fluff reports, or bill hourly without clear outcomes. We’re focused, fast, and comprehensive — because that’s what you deserve.​

​​

4. You're Buying a Real Assessment - Not A "Scan"

  • Some firms press a button and charge you top dollar for the printout. Nobody should pay top dollar for a simple Pass/Fail report.

  • We thoughtfully designed our assessment with both automation and manual efforts in mind to be both efficient and maximize value for our customers.

  • We combine multiple benchmarks to help ensure real-time coverage against the latest cyber threats.

  • We prioritize each control and include a roadmap.

  • We give partial credit where possible to help represent the true posture of your M365 environment.

​​

5. You're Reducing the Likelihood of A $150,000+ Problem​

  • The average business email compromise (BEC) incident in 2024 cost $150,000.

  • Our services typically cost less than 10–15% of that — and help you prevent the breach in the first place. That’s not a cost. That’s a safeguard.

  • We've responded to our fair-share of security breaches. We guide our customers towards implementing security controls that we know make a real difference in protecting your business.
