Why Businesses Hire Our Secure Score Consultants

Expert Secure Score Consultants for Toronto, Durham Region, and Northumberland businesses.

How can we help you?

Pass Vendor Security Screenings

Vendor questionnaires ask specific questions: "Do you enforce MFA?" "Do you prevent unauthorized data sharing?" "Do you manage device access?" Secure Score maps directly to these requirements. We configure the controls, document the implementation, and provide evidence that satisfies vendor security teams.

Meet Cyber Insurance Requirements

Insurers increasingly require documented security controls for coverage or competitive rates. MFA enforcement, endpoint management, data loss prevention—these are Secure Score controls that directly impact your insurance assessment. We provide configuration reports and security documentation cyber insurance providers recognize.

IT Risk & Compliance Support

Meet client expectations and industry standards with Information Security solutions and NIST framework expertise.

Document Compliance Posture

NIST framework alignment, ISO 27001 control mapping, PIPEDA data protection requirements—Secure Score addresses these standards when properly configured. We implement controls and maintain documentation that supports compliance demonstrations.

Fix What's Actually Broken

Many businesses enable basic Microsoft 365 security but miss critical gaps: unrestricted admin access, unmanaged external sharing, missing device policies, disabled audit logging. We identify and fix security weaknesses that create real business risk.

FAQ

Most implementations complete in 4-8 weeks from initial assessment to vendor-ready documentation. Timeline depends on your current configuration, business requirements, and approval processes. We can accelerate for urgent vendor deadlines.
Microsoft 365 Business Premium includes most critical security controls (MFA, Conditional Access, Intune, basic DLP). E3 adds advanced compliance features. E5 adds threat protection and advanced security analytics. We assess your specific vendor requirements and recommend appropriate licensing—many businesses achieve passing scores with Business Premium when properly configured.
We start with your current state, identify gaps, and implement what’s missing. Many businesses have partial implementations—MFA enabled but not enforced, Conditional Access policies created but not activated, DLP available but not configured. We complete the implementation and provide documentation for what you already have plus what we add.
Security controls should protect without blocking legitimate work. We implement in phases, test with pilot groups, and adjust policies based on real workflow patterns. Most teams experience minimal disruption when controls are configured appropriately for business operations rather than maximum security score.
Yes. We review vendor questionnaires, map requirements to Microsoft 365 capabilities, implement necessary controls, and provide documentation that directly answers vendor questions. We’ve helped businesses pass SOC 2, ISO 27001, and custom enterprise vendor requirements.
