How it works

A calm, documented process

  1. 1

    Review

    We assess your tenant, licensing, admins and sign-in security.

  2. 2

    Prioritize

    We flag the highest-risk gaps and quick wins in plain English.

  3. 3

    Configure

    We apply security policies and clean up accounts and sharing.

  4. 4

    Document

    We record settings, owners and the offboarding process.

  5. 5

    Maintain

    We keep licensing and policies current as the team changes.

Security is built in

Most account-takeover incidents start with email and identity. Getting MFA, admin roles and email authentication right is one of the highest-value, lowest-drama steps in the whole security baseline.

FAQ

Common questions

Straight answers about price, switching, timing and scope.

  • Can you clean up licensing without disrupting people?

    Yes. We review usage first and make changes carefully, so right-sizing licenses does not interrupt anyone’s work.

  • Do you handle offboarding when someone leaves?

    Yes. A documented offboarding process is part of the setup, so access is removed promptly and consistently.

  • Will this stop all phishing?

    No honest provider can promise that. We reduce the risk substantially with MFA, email authentication and sensible policies, and we document what is in place.

  • Is this only available with managed IT?

    It is included in managed IT and can also be delivered as a focused review and cleanup. We will recommend the right fit.

Local & accountable

A founder-led partner in Missoula

Granite Peak is intentionally small and local. That means direct accountability and standards you can see — not a support model that hides behind tiers and hold music.

  • Direct access, clear accountability—without the call-center runaround.
  • Recommendations are prioritized by risk and budget, in plain English.
  • We document what we do, so nothing lives only in one person’s head.
