Listing the challenges is not that difficult. Finding solutions to them is another story. At Xylos, we don’t offer a quick fix, but believe in a comprehensive set of solutions that combine expertise, technology and strategic vision. Always with the customer’s needs and budget in mind. That’s where our partnership with Rencore comes in: a logical step in addressing the challenges of Modern Workplace Governance.
Challenge 1: Data security and Compliance
Is the data in your Microsoft 365 environment secure and compliant? With ever-evolving regulations and sophisticated threats, continuous monitoring and auditing is necessary.
Why not automate it to stay ahead of regulatory requirements and security threats? Use tools specifically designed to automate the monitoring and management of security and compliance policies within Microsoft 365, and count on Xylos to implement those tools effectively and in line with your operational needs.
Monitoring external access and permissions is also an important aspect. This includes flagging access to the tenant by external or guest users and permissions on externally shared files. Governance automation is the ultimate outcome.
Challenge 2: Governance and oversight
Do you have robust policies, clear roles and responsibilities, and straightforward procedures in place to efficiently manage and use your M365 environment?
Don’t start from scratch – rely on robust governance solutions to help you define and enforce policies across your M365 environment. Automating the detection of policy violations and delivering actionable insights becomes a piece of cake.
Did you know Rencore offers over 500 pre-built compliance policies, automations, dashboards, reports, and other template libraries? All designed to help organizations get started with their governance plan with minimal effort.
Challenge 3: Shadow IT
Are your employees downloading and using unauthorized applications, resulting in Shadow IT? This can create security vulnerabilities and complicate data management and compliance efforts.
Choose strategic management services to identify unauthorized applications and take proactive measures. The result: a more secure and controlled environment.
Challenge 4: User management and provisioning
Managing users and permissions and efficiently provisioning resources can be complex, especially in large organizations with dynamic workforces.
Automation tools can offer a smart solution for user management, reducing your administrative burden and minimizing errors in user provisioning and permission assignment. Make sure you thoroughly support and train your IT teams to effectively use these automation tools, and to ensure a smooth and efficient user management process.
Challenge 5: Performance and reliability
How does your Microsoft 365 environment perform under varying loads and conditions? Reliability is critical to maintain productivity and user satisfaction.
To identify and resolve issues before they impact users, you can use performance monitoring tools. The Xylos Managed Services team can also help you maintain and optimize your M365 environment to ensure high performance and reliability.
