The evidence pack structure we hand to auditors - one section per control, with screenshot examples and the exact artefacts an ACSC-aligned assessor expects.
How we map CIS Controls v8 to SMB-scale environments - which safeguards are genuinely load-bearing, which can defer, and how to evidence the ones you implement.
Our default tenant configuration - Conditional Access policies, identity protections, email security, data loss prevention - expressed as a deployment checklist.
Pre-flight readiness, licensing strategy, the data-governance conversations that should happen first, and a phased rollout template with adoption metrics.
Kit selection, VLAN design, Wi-Fi planning, and the firmware cadence we'd pick for an office of 15–60 users. With a worked example budget.
Twenty-odd questions to ask before signing - based on the three questions we think every MSP contract should answer clearly, plus the follow-up red flags to watch for.
A playbook you can keep on the wall - first-hour actions, escalation contacts, evidence preservation, and the communications templates that help most when an incident is live.
Most of these are being written progressively - if one would be useful to you right now, tell us and we’ll prioritise it.
