Does This Sound Familiar?

Signs your Microsoft 365 environment needs attention.

These are the situations Armely finds in almost every Microsoft 365 tenant that has been running without a governance review.

Risk
External sharing is on and no one knows what has been shared
Files, SharePoint sites, and Teams channels shared with external users months or years ago, with no record and no expiry. This is the most common finding in every tenant audit Armely runs.
Risk
Hundreds of Teams and SharePoint sites with no owners
Abandoned workspaces, duplicate sites, and content no one can find, managed by no one. Each one is a security liability and a search quality problem.
Risk
Former employees still have active accounts or access
Offboarding processes that leave licenses running, mailboxes accessible, and permissions intact long after a person has left the organization.
AI
You want to add Copilot but the tenant is not ready
Copilot surfaces data based on existing permissions. If permissions and data classification are not clean, Copilot will surface things it should not. Governance is a prerequisite.

What Armely Delivers

A governed, secure, well-adopted Microsoft 365 environment.

Armely's Microsoft 365 Governance and Adoption practice covers the security controls, structural policies, compliance configuration, and user enablement that turn a chaotic tenant into one your organization can rely on.

Tenant Health Assessment
A structured audit of your Microsoft 365 tenant covering security posture, external sharing exposure, guest access, inactive accounts, Teams and SharePoint sprawl, license utilization, and compliance configuration gaps.
Security Hardening
Implementation of Microsoft's recommended security baselines including Conditional Access policies, MFA enforcement, Entra ID Privileged Identity Management, external sharing controls, and Defender for Microsoft 365.
Governance Framework Implementation
Teams lifecycle policies, SharePoint site provisioning standards, naming conventions, owner accountability processes, and admin center configuration that prevents ungoverned sprawl.
Microsoft Purview and Compliance
Sensitivity label taxonomy, data loss prevention policies, retention schedules, and audit logging configured through Microsoft Purview so your content is classified, protected, and auditable.
Adoption and Training
Role-specific training programs for Microsoft 365, including Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, and Copilot where relevant. Adoption measurement through Microsoft Viva Insights.
Copilot Readiness Preparation
Overshared content remediation, sensitivity label coverage, permission cleanup, and data governance configuration that ensures Microsoft 365 Copilot surfaces only what it should.

Common Situations

The governance challenges we resolve most often.

Every Microsoft 365 tenant is different but the governance problems that accumulate over time follow recognizable patterns.

Oversharing and External Access Cleanup
An audit and remediation of external sharing across SharePoint, OneDrive, and Teams. We identify what has been shared externally, review appropriateness, remove unnecessary access, and implement controls.
Teams and SharePoint Sprawl
Organizations with hundreds of Teams and SharePoint sites that have accumulated without structure or ownership. We audit, archive, merge, or delete abandoned workspaces and implement lifecycle management.
Security Baseline Implementation
Organizations that deployed Microsoft 365 without implementing Microsoft's recommended security controls. We implement Conditional Access, MFA, Entra ID protection, and Defender for Microsoft 365.
Compliance and Audit Preparation
Organizations facing a HIPAA, SOC 2, or other compliance audit that need their Microsoft 365 environment to demonstrate appropriate data governance, retention policies, and access controls.
Low Adoption Remediation
Organizations paying for Microsoft 365 licenses but finding most staff still email attachments and store files on personal drives. We assess barriers and address structural and training gaps.
Copilot Readiness Assessment
For organizations planning to deploy Microsoft 365 Copilot, we assess whether the tenant's permissions, sensitivity labels, and data governance are ready, and remediate the gaps.
