What we cover
Practical, board-ready consulting — no jargon, no surprise invoices.
MFA for All Users
Policy 1: require MFA for all users via conditional access — with break-glass account for emergencies.
Block Legacy Authentication
Policy 2: block POP3, IMAP, SMTP basic auth, and older clients — the top MFA bypass. Critical.
Location-Based Access
Policy 3: restrict access from trusted countries/locations — block sign-ins from unexpected geographies.
Device Compliance Required
Policy 4: only compliant, Intune-enrolled devices can access corporate resources — non-compliant devices get browser-only access.
Admin MFA + PIM
Policy 5: require MFA + hardware keys for admins. Policy 6: just-in-time admin elevation via Privileged Identity Management — no standing admin access.
Risk-Based Sign-In + Guests
Policy 7: risk-based conditional access (block on high-risk sign-ins) + guest user restrictions (limited access, no admin).

Design + deploy (3-5 days)
We design and deploy the 7 baseline conditional access policies in report-only mode, then enforce after validation.
