ConfidentialTechnology Posture Assessment
Prepared for Acme Industries, Inc. — 87 employees, Denver, CO.
Executive summary
Acme Industries operates a typical SMB infrastructure — Microsoft 365 for productivity, on‑prem Active Directory inherited from a prior integrator, a Meraki network across three sites, and roughly 140 endpoints managed by a mix of Intune and local accounts. The environment is stable but carries three critical findings that together represent a realistic path to material business disruption.
The three critical findings (F‑047 phishing‑resistant MFA on Global Admin; F‑052 unmonitored S3 bucket with production backups; F‑061 lapsed EDR coverage on four production endpoints) can be addressed inside 14 days for an estimated 46 hours of remediation effort. We recommend starting there.
Beyond the immediate risk items, we identified $62,400 / year in Microsoft 365 licensing over‑provision and a duplicate SaaS stack between marketing and sales that would consolidate to a single $9,600 / year tool. These recover roughly half the assessment fee in the first year alone.
- Close the three critical findings (AEGIS Remediation, est. $9k fixed).
- Adopt the proposed Microsoft 365 licensing baseline; cancel unused Dropbox tenancy.
- Establish quarterly posture review under a right‑sized Partnership retainer.
Every issue ships with the fix attached.
Findings aren’t a list of problems we hand off and walk away from. Each one comes with current state, business risk, a recommended remediation, and an effort estimate — diagnosis and prescription, side by side.
