Deliverable 01
Fixed-scope remediation · Microsoft Cloud · Verification & evidence
Close the security findings that are still open because implementation is the bottleneck.
Enki Tech takes a bounded Microsoft Cloud, identity or endpoint security backlog and moves the selected findings through controlled implementation, technical verification and evidence-backed closure.
The buying problem
The finding is known. The expensive part is getting it safely closed.
Security tools and audits can identify risk quickly, but remediation often stalls between Security, Infrastructure, Workplace, application owners and change management. The sprint creates one owned path from selected finding to implemented change, validation and closure evidence.
What the client receives
A defined remediation outcome—not another assessment report.
The exact scope is agreed before delivery so effort is concentrated on findings that can be materially reduced inside the engagement.
Deliverable 02
Agreed acceptance criteria for each in-scope remediation item
Deliverable 03
Hands-on implementation across the relevant Microsoft Cloud controls
Deliverable 04
Technical verification of the remediated state after implementation
Deliverable 05
Before-and-after evidence package for the completed work
Deliverable 06
Exception and residual-risk register for items that cannot be fully closed
Deliverable 07
Handover notes and a clear follow-on backlog where further work is justified
Delivery path
Finding → acceptance criteria → implementation → verification → evidence
Every in-scope item needs a clear closure condition before implementation starts.
01
Triage the backlog
Confirm the source findings, affected services, urgency, dependencies and which items belong inside the sprint.
02
Define closure
Agree what successful remediation means for each item, including the validation method and evidence required.
03
Implement the change
Execute the agreed remediation through the client change process across the relevant Microsoft Cloud services.
04
Verify the result
Test the post-change state against the agreed acceptance criteria and record any remaining constraint or exception.
05
Prove and hand over
Package the implementation and verification evidence, close completed items and hand over any residual backlog.
Typical technical scope
Focused on Microsoft Cloud controls where senior implementation capacity matters.
Not every area is included in every sprint. The engagement is intentionally bounded around the selected backlog.
Entra ID & PIM
Standing privileged access, excessive role assignment, weak elevation paths, stale privileged identities and governance gaps.
Conditional Access
Policy coverage gaps, risky exclusions, legacy authentication exposure and control conflicts that need a safer target state.
Intune & Defender
Endpoint compliance, security baselines, device-control gaps and selected Defender recommendations that require implementation.
Azure
RBAC exposure, management-plane permissions, configuration weaknesses and control gaps in the agreed subscription or resource scope.
Microsoft 365
Security-relevant Exchange, Teams, SharePoint or tenant configuration findings that have a clear technical remediation path.
Operational evidence
Findings that stay open because implementation ownership, validation or closure evidence is incomplete.
Commercial format
Bounded scope, explicit dependencies and a measurable closure condition.
The sprint is quoted after a short backlog triage. Delivery timing depends on scope, access, approval and change-window constraints; urgent work can be prioritized where the client can support the required decisions and access.
Acceptance principle
A ticket is not closed because a change was attempted.
Closure requires the agreed change to be implemented, the resulting state to be technically verified, and the evidence or documented exception to be available for review.
Best fit
For teams with a real backlog and a real implementation constraint.
A security assessment, audit, penetration-test follow-up or internal review has produced a defined Microsoft Cloud backlog
The client has findings but lacks senior Microsoft capacity to move them through controlled implementation
Security and platform teams need a shared definition of what “closed” means for each remediation item
A consultancy, MSSP or integrator needs a specialist Microsoft remediation work package inside a wider client engagement
Boundaries
Keep the offer credible by being explicit about what it is not.
The sprint is not a penetration test, formal certification or legal compliance opinion
Scope must be bounded; it is not an unlimited remediation retainer
Client approvals, access, change windows and application-owner decisions remain client responsibilities unless explicitly included
24/7 monitoring, SOC coverage and guaranteed incident-response SLAs are outside the standard sprint
Move the backlog
Which Microsoft Cloud security findings need to be moved from open to verifiably closed?
Share the source of the findings, the affected Microsoft services, the approximate backlog size and any fixed deadline. Enki Tech will confirm whether a bounded remediation sprint is the right delivery model.
