Practical cloud security for Microsoft 365 and AWS
Know what to fix. Then fix it properly.
Digital Affinity gives leaders a clear view of cloud and security risk, then helps technical teams implement the controls, runbooks and evidence that make the environment easier to govern.
01 Find the real gaps
02 Agree the priorities
03 Deliver visible progress
The problem we solve
Security work stalls when nobody can see what matters most.
You may already have the platforms and licences. What is often missing is a simple operating model: where the risks are, who owns them, what evidence exists and which changes should happen first.
Microsoft 365 has drifted
Admin roles, MFA, sharing, Defender and endpoint controls need a clean baseline.
Cloud growth has outpaced control
AWS or Azure needs clearer ownership, logging, backup, IAM and guardrails.
Progress is hard to prove
Board view needs a simple view of progress, blockers and remaining risk.
How Digital Affinity works
Clarity first. Delivery immediately after.
We do not stop at a findings list. We translate risk into decisions, decisions into changes, and changes into evidence your organisation can reuse.
Map tenants, cloud accounts, identity, endpoint, backup and operations
Decide what creates risk, what is urgent and what can wait
Deliver baselines, runbooks, automations and ownership changes
Evidence decisions, progress and controls in language people can use
Engagements

FAQ
Questions buyers ask before starting.
Can you work with our current IT provider?
Yes. We can work alongside internal teams or existing providers, adding structure around cloud security, governance, controls and delivery priorities.
Do you only advise, or do you also implement?
We do both. Our work combines practical assessment, clear recommendations and hands-on implementation support where needed.
Can you review our Microsoft 365 security setup?
Yes. We review identity, conditional access, admin roles, Defender, Intune, endpoint posture, external sharing and evidence requirements.
Can you help with cyber insurance or compliance preparation?
We can help you understand control gaps, improve evidence, clarify ownership and prioritise remediation before audit or insurance conversations.
