[Industry] · [Approx. seat count] · [Region]
How a Mackenzie County [industry] business closed [N] material gaps and saved [N]% at renewal.
- Engagement
- A few sentences on the client, the industry, the rough seat count, the trigger — what made them call. Carrier renewal pressure, a near-miss, a peer business that got hit, a new contract requirement. Anonymized where the client wants it, named where they have given written permission.
- Findings
- The top three to five things the engagement surfaced. Not a fluffy list — the real material gaps: unprotected backup admin, legacy auth still enabled, no MFA on the bookkeeper account that authorizes vendor banking changes, a third-party app with full mailbox-read consent that nobody remembers approving. Plain language, no acronym soup.
- Remediation
- What we actually did. The technical work — Conditional Access policies, MFA enforcement, baseline hardening, backup re-architecture, EDR deployment. The non-technical work — policy authoring, role clarification, vendor risk decisions, broker liaison. The sequence, the time required, and the cost.
- Outcome
- Measurable change. Phishing click rate down from X% to Y% over twelve months. Insurance premium changed from $A to $B at renewal. Restore test now passes for every critical workload. Time-to-detect on a real near-miss. Numbers that matter to an owner, not vanity metrics.
- Owner quote
- A short direct quote from the owner or GM in their own words. Reviewed and approved by them before publication. We do not put words in client mouths; we publish what they say.
