Compliance readiness assessment
Whether the driver is a cyber insurance renewal, a client security requirement, or a framework like NIST CSF or CIS Controls, a compliance readiness assessment tells you where you stand and what to do next - with the gaps mapped to specific Azure and Microsoft 365 controls, not generic advice.
What's included
- Gap analysis against your target: NIST CSF, CIS Controls, or an insurer questionnaire
- Policy and documentation review
- Microsoft Defender for Cloud regulatory compliance review
- Control mapping to Azure and Microsoft 365 features you already own
- A prioritized remediation roadmap with effort and impact
- A written gap report suitable for sharing with an insurer or auditor

Hand off
Documentation, runbooks, and a walkthrough so your team can operate what we built.
Compliance Readiness Assessment: common questions
Do you certify or audit us?
No - this is a readiness assessment, not a certification audit. It gets you ready for one, or satisfies an insurer that a plan is in place.
Which framework should we pick?
For most small and mid-sized businesses, CIS Controls or NIST CSF, or simply the insurer questionnaire in front of you. We help you choose.
