What are your IG sales plans after the shelter in place? Some (hopefully many) of us are still working…remotely, and with a smaller workload because of the quietness. Now is a good time to do some governance services planning while system and people demands on your time are also reduced. Many of you in my network are consultants, service providers, or software vendors. If so, please consider adding a compliance check to your arsenal of offerings. We all make recommendations to our clients about how to better manage their information, yet many of our clients have no idea what information they have, what risk needs to be mitigated, what value need to be protected, where to optimally spend their money. Infotechtion would like to work with you to gain insights into your client’s actual unstructured content. We can help you and your clients uncover, and plan for addressing, the risk and value hidden in your existing content – either in the cloud or in other dark corners as an add on service to your existing relationships. You can continue to build your trusted-advisor relationship when other projects are on hold. We are able to REMOTELY provide Microsoft Compliance Check and full Infotechtion Advanced Content Assessment from the comfort of your own living room or home office. With a workshop, we measure several facets of governance practices and provide recommendations. We also run discovery tools to look at your actual content to assess the level of risk and value related to proper protection and classification of unstructured data. We do this at two levels: 1. Microsoft Compliance Check leverages automated Microsoft 365 tools and services to discover data stored in the Microsoft cloud and identify opportunities for expanded governance capabilities through labeling and other features found in Advanced Governance tools. As a Microsoft partner, we can help you maximize the value of your client´s M365 investments and ensure compliance and protection for sensitive information. The automated discovery process will analyze your client’s existing data for:
Sensitive information and intellectual property
Unused or “stale” data
Unusual activities
2. An Infotechtion Advanced Content Assessment examines information both inside and outside the cloud infrastructure, including shared drives, email systems, and other cloud or legacy ECM applications. The discovery process will analyze your client’s existing data for all of the above, in addition to providing:
Strategy and cost benefit justification details to measure level of effort, current compliance benchmarks, supporting technology recommendations, additional IG use case opportunities
Taxonomy and naming convention opportunities based on actual data content types, foldering, acronyms, nicknames, and numbering systems
Migration and deployment recommendations for site functionality priority based on retention value, risk, value, IT environmental limitations
Useless, duplicate, or non-business value content appropriate for ROT removal prior to migration
Deliverables for both options include a Compliance Check report that contains findings and insights from the automated discovery process. You will get a list of actionable recommendations and suggestions for improved mitigation and governance:
Detailed assessment of your client’s IT and compliance priorities and initiatives
Clear look into Microsoft’s approach to compliance and how it relates to your client’s organization
Hands-on opportunity to experience what integrated compliance looks like, including the latest tools and methods
Set of long-term recommendations on your client’s compliance strategy, with key initiatives and tactical next steps
Please reach out if the opportunity interests you. If you have the services, we’ll bring the tools, if you have the tools, we’ll bring the services. Your client get the value.
