Services

Advisory services, scoped around real problems

Every service below states who it is for, the problem it addresses, and what you receive — because that is what a serious buyer needs to know first. Engagement models are flexible; pricing is discussed once scope is clear.

Enterprise Architecture Advisory

Who it is for: CIOs, CTOs, IT directors, and organizations without a dedicated enterprise architecture function.

Scope: Current-state architecture assessment across infrastructure, platforms, and integration
Target-state architecture and prioritized transition roadmap
Architecture governance model sized to the organization
Approach: Start from business drivers and constraints, not technology preferences.
Assess the current estate through documentation review, stakeholder interviews, and configuration evidence.
Deliver a pragmatic roadmap sequenced by risk, dependency, and value.
Deliverables: Architecture assessment report
Target architecture and roadmap document
Governance and standards recommendations
Typical engagement model: Fixed-scope assessment engagements or ongoing advisory retainers.

Cybersecurity Architecture Assessment

Who it is for: CISOs, security leaders, and executives who need an architectural view of security risk — beyond a tool inventory.
Problem addressed: Security controls have accumulated tactically. Leadership lacks a clear picture of how the pieces fit together, where the gaps are, and what to fix first.
Scope: Security architecture review across identity, network, endpoint, data, and cloud domains
Control mapping against recognized frameworks such as NIST CSF and CIS Controls
Prioritized remediation roadmap with effort and dependency context
Approach: Evaluate architecture and configuration evidence, not vendor claims.
Prioritize findings by exploitability and business impact.
Present results in language both engineers and executives can act on.
Deliverables: Security architecture assessment report
Framework-mapped gap analysis
Prioritized remediation roadmap
Typical engagement model: Fixed-scope assessment with optional remediation advisory.

Microsoft 365 Security Baseline

Who it is for: Organizations running Microsoft 365 who suspect their tenant is under-secured, and MSPs standardizing customer tenants.
Problem addressed: Default tenant settings leave organizations exposed to phishing, account compromise, and uncontrolled data sharing.
Scope: Tenant configuration review against Microsoft baselines and CIS benchmark guidance
Identity protection, email security, data protection, and device compliance design
Phased hardening plan with user-impact management
Approach: Assess before changing; enforce in stages using report-only and pilot phases.
Match sharing and data policies to how the business actually collaborates.
Document every control with rationale for future audits.
Deliverables: Tenant assessment report
Baseline design and policy documentation
Phased implementation plan
Typical engagement model: Fixed-scope assessment and design, with optional implementation oversight.

Azure Security and Landing Zone Review

Who it is for: Organizations adopting Azure — or living with an Azure estate that grew before governance existed.
Problem addressed: Cloud workloads are deployed inconsistently, guardrails are missing, and nobody is confident the environment would pass a security review.
Scope: Landing zone architecture review: subscriptions, identity, networking, policy, and logging
Security posture review of deployed workloads
Governance guardrail design using policy-as-code
Approach: Review against Microsoft's cloud adoption and well-architected guidance, adapted to the organization's reality.
Design guardrails that enable delivery teams instead of blocking them.
Sequence remediation to bring existing workloads into governance without a big-bang rebuild.
Deliverables: Landing zone review report
Target landing zone design
Policy and governance implementation plan
Typical engagement model: Fixed-scope review, design engagements, or advisory retainer.

Network Architecture and Modernization

Who it is for: Enterprises with aging network estates — campus, WAN, wireless, or data center — planning modernization or consolidation.
Problem addressed: Legacy network platforms create availability risk, security exposure, and operational cost, but migrating them safely requires design discipline most teams don't have spare capacity for.
Scope: Network architecture assessment and target design
SD-WAN, campus, wireless, and data center network modernization
Migration sequencing, cutover planning, and validation criteria
Approach: Design from traffic patterns and dependency reality, not topology diagrams alone.
Standardize on repeatable templates to reduce operational variance.
Plan cutovers with rehearsals, rollback triggers, and acceptance criteria.
Deliverables: Network assessment and target architecture
Migration and cutover plans
Configuration standards and operational documentation
Typical engagement model: Design engagements with optional migration oversight.

Zero Trust and Identity Architecture

Who it is for: Security and infrastructure leaders replacing perimeter-centric access with identity-centered controls.
Problem addressed: Zero Trust initiatives stall between strategy decks and production enforcement — while broad VPN entitlements and ungoverned privileged access remain the real daily risk.
Scope: Zero Trust maturity assessment and phased adoption roadmap
Conditional access and authentication strength design
Privileged access architecture and governance
Approach: Use report-only evaluation to build evidence before enforcement.
Sequence enforcement where risk reduction per unit of user friction is highest.
Design break-glass and exception processes before they are needed.
Deliverables: Zero Trust roadmap and architecture document
Conditional access policy design
Privileged access model and rollout plan
Typical engagement model: Assessment plus phased design engagements.

AI Security and Governance Assessment

Who it is for: Executives and security leaders whose organizations are adopting AI tools faster than policy and controls can follow.
Problem addressed: AI services are entering the environment through every team, with unclear data exposure, no usage policy, and no accountable review process.
Scope: AI usage discovery and risk classification
Security architecture review for enterprise AI services and copilots
AI governance policy and review-process design
Approach: Treat AI platforms as enterprise systems: data flows, identity, logging, and governance.
Classify use cases by data sensitivity and decision impact.
Design policy that channels adoption safely rather than banning it into shadow IT.
Deliverables: AI usage and risk assessment
AI security architecture recommendations
AI governance policy framework
Typical engagement model: Fixed-scope assessment with optional ongoing governance advisory.

Compliance and Security Readiness

Who it is for: Organizations preparing for audits, customer security reviews, or framework alignment such as NIST, CIS, or ISO 27001.
Problem addressed: Compliance obligations are clear, but mapping them to the actual technical environment — with evidence — consumes teams for months.
Scope: Control mapping between frameworks and the deployed environment
Gap assessment with prioritized remediation
Evidence and documentation process design
Approach: Map controls to real configurations, not policy statements alone.
Prioritize gaps by audit risk and security value together.
Build evidence collection into normal operations so audits stop being fire drills.
Deliverables: Control mapping and gap report
Remediation roadmap
Evidence process recommendations
Typical engagement model: Fixed-scope readiness engagements.

Architecture Documentation and Design Review

Who it is for: Teams that need an independent expert review of a proposed design — or accurate documentation of an environment nobody has written down.
Problem addressed: Major decisions are being made on undocumented architecture, or a critical design has never had independent scrutiny.
Scope: Independent design reviews with written findings
As-built architecture documentation of existing environments
Architecture decision records and standards documentation
Approach: Review designs against requirements, failure modes, security, and operability.
Document environments from evidence: configurations, flows, and interviews.
Deliver documentation that operations teams will actually maintain.
Deliverables: Design review findings report
Architecture documentation set
Decision records and standards templates
Typical engagement model: Short fixed-scope engagements.

Technical Project and Program Leadership

Who it is for: Sponsors of complex infrastructure, security, or migration programs that need leadership fluent in both the technology and the delivery discipline.
Problem addressed: Technical programs drift when project management and architecture live in different heads — decisions stall, vendors diverge, and risk surfaces late.
Scope: Program and workstream leadership for infrastructure and security initiatives
Technical governance across vendors and internal teams
Cutover and migration leadership with rollback discipline
Approach: Combine PMP-grade delivery structure with hands-on architectural judgment.
Make risk visible early through honest, decision-oriented reporting.
Protect production: every cutover has criteria, a rehearsal, and a way back.
