Microsoft Solutions Partner · Egypt

Microsoft 365 and Azure, run properly.

We have been a Microsoft Solutions Partner for over five years. Most of our largest clients run Microsoft 365 under Stark management: licensing, identity, security and the day-to-day support that keeps it working.

What we actually do with Microsoft

Microsoft 365 management

Tenant administration, licence right-sizing, Exchange Online, SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams, configured once, then run as a managed service rather than left to drift.

Azure

Cloud infrastructure, identity, hybrid connectivity and backup targets, sized to the workload and reviewed for cost, not just switched on.

Security hardening

Conditional Access and identity risk, Purview data protection and DLP, Intune device compliance, Defender for Office 365 mail security and Defender across the estate. The controls that make a tenant defensible rather than merely licensed. Detailed below.

Security hardening, the controls we actually configure

A Microsoft 365 tenant is not secure because it has been licensed. Almost every tenant we inherit is running on defaults: no risk policies, no device compliance, no data controls, and mail protection left at whatever came in the box. This is the work that changes that, and it is the largest part of what we do on Microsoft.

Identity protection

Conditional AccessA policy set built deliberately, who, from where, on which device, into which application. Legacy authentication blocked, administrative portals restricted, break-glass accounts created and excluded before anything is enforced, and every policy run in report-only mode before it is switched on.

Risky users and risky sign-insMicrosoft Entra ID Protection enabled and wired into Conditional Access. Leaked credentials, password spray, impossible travel, anomalous tokens and unfamiliar sign-in properties raise user risk or sign-in risk, and the policy forces re-authentication, a password change or a block automatically. Rather than producing a report nobody reads.

Authentication strengthNot all MFA is equal. Authentication strength is set per scenario, pushing administrators and high-risk sign-ins onto phishing-resistant methods instead of SMS. Sign-in frequency and session controls are tuned so a stolen token has a short useful life.

Privileged accessStanding Global Administrator rights removed, roles scoped to the job actually being done, and administrative work separated from day-to-day user accounts.

Data protection and DLP

Sensitivity labelsMicrosoft Purview labels applied to documents and mail, with encryption and usage rights travelling inside the file itself, so a spreadsheet that leaves the tenant is still protected, and a forwarded contract still respects who may open it.

DLP policiesData loss prevention across Exchange Online, SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams and the endpoint. Rules written against what the business genuinely handles: card data, national ID numbers, contracts, drawings, payroll. Instead of a template left untuned.

Encryption and retentionEncryption at rest and in transit as standard, message encryption for external mail that warrants it, and retention set deliberately rather than accumulating by accident.

Devices: Intune and MDM

Compliance policiesMinimum OS version, encryption on, antivirus healthy, jailbreak and root detection. A device that fails compliance is reported and, through Conditional Access, loses access to company data until it is fixed.

Configuration and baselinesConfiguration profiles and Microsoft security baselines for Windows, Edge and Defender. Applied consistently instead of set once on a golden image and forgotten.

Endpoint securityDefender antivirus policy, BitLocker and FileVault disk encryption, firewall rules, attack surface reduction, and Defender for Endpoint onboarding. All driven from Intune.

BYOD without enrolmentApp protection policies protect company data inside Outlook and Teams on personal phones: PIN required, copy and paste restricted, saving to personal storage blocked, and a selective wipe that removes company data and nothing else.

Mail security: Microsoft Defender for Office 365

Anti-spam, anti-malware, anti-phishingPolicies tightened well past default, with quarantine behaviour and end-user release permissions decided rather than inherited.

Impersonation protectionNamed protection for the people who get impersonated, the CEO, the finance team, the domain itself. Plus spoof intelligence and mailbox intelligence. This is the control that stops the fake payment-instruction email, which is the attack Egyptian businesses actually lose money to.

Safe Attachments and Safe LinksAttachments detonated in a sandbox before delivery; links rewritten and re-checked at the moment of click, not just at delivery, and extended into Teams, SharePoint and OneDrive.

Mail authenticationSPF, DKIM and DMARC published and enforced so nobody can send mail as your company, and so your genuine mail stops landing in junk.

Investigation and trainingOn Plan 2 tenants: Threat Explorer, automated investigation and response, and attack simulation training to test staff with a realistic phishing campaign rather than a lecture.

Microsoft Defender across the estate

Defender for EndpointEndpoint detection and response on servers and workstations, with device risk fed back into Conditional Access so a compromised machine loses access automatically.

Defender for IdentityMonitoring of on-premises Active Directory for reconnaissance, lateral movement and privilege escalation, the part of a hybrid estate most often left unwatched.

Defender for Cloud AppsDiscovery of the SaaS applications your staff are actually using, control over risky OAuth app consent, and session policies for unmanaged devices.

Defender XDRSignals from identity, endpoint, mail and cloud apps correlated into single incidents, so one alert tells the whole story instead of four consoles telling a quarter of it each.

How we measure it. Every tenant we harden starts with a Microsoft Secure Score baseline and a written gap list. We agree what gets fixed, in what order, and what is deliberately accepted. The score is re-checked on a schedule, so hardening is a position you hold, not a project that finished.

Migration to Microsoft 365, a repeatable method, not an experiment

We migrate businesses onto Microsoft 365 from whatever they are running today: Google Workspace, hosted Exchange, cPanel and shared IMAP mail, Zoho, on-premise Exchange, or a mix of all of them across different domains. It is not a one-off exercise for us. We have delivered it repeatedly, at very different scales, and each project closed on the agreed plan with the business running throughout and a formal handover at the end.

The engagement runs in five phases over ten business days.

Phase	What happens	Working days
Phase 0	Discovery and assessment. Full inventory of users, mailboxes, shared mailboxes, groups, calendars, file content and delegated access. Data volumes confirmed per user so the migration is sized, not guessed.	Days 1 to 2
Phase 1	Microsoft 365 tenant and domain preparation.	Days 3 to 4
Phase 2	Mailbox migration into Exchange Online, with mail flowing throughout.	Days 5 to 7
Phase 3	File and document migration into OneDrive and SharePoint.	Days 8 to 9
Phase 4	Cut-over, decommissioning and handover.	Day 10

A live user induction session runs before cut-over, and one full month of post-migration support is included at no additional cost. We make no configuration changes to your existing platform until you are ready to cut over.

Zero data loss and zero downtime is the standard we work to, not a slogan. Mail keeps flowing during the move, historic mail and calendars come across intact, and the old platform stays live until the new one is proven.

The part most migrations skip

Before we quote, we run a read-only review of your domain’s publicly published DNS records. No system is accessed and no credentials are used. This is information anyone on the internet can query. It routinely finds things that matter:

Missing DMARCAnyone on the internet can send email that appears to come from your company. For a business that issues quotations and receives payment instructions, this is the single highest-value control to put in place.

DKIM not publishedOutbound mail is not cryptographically signed, so genuine mail is more likely to land in junk, and DMARC cannot be enforced until signing is in place.

Stale SPF authorisationA mail platform you stopped using years ago is often still permitted to send mail as your company.

Stale autodiscover recordPoints Outlook at the old provider and breaks automatic profile configuration on Microsoft 365. Frequently missed, and the usual cause of day-one support tickets.

All of it is corrected as part of the engagement, implemented on the Microsoft 365 platform at cut-over, at no extra charge.

The scale we run at

We do not publish client names on this page. Most of the businesses we look after run Microsoft 365 under our management, and several of them are among the larger private employers in their sector in Egypt. What we can describe is the work itself.

Where we are used	What that involves
Full tenant management	Microsoft 365 run as a managed service across multi-site businesses: licensing, identity, mail flow, collaboration and support handled end to end, with the client’s own IT function either small or absent.
Platform consolidation	Migrations onto Microsoft 365 from Google Workspace, hosted Exchange, legacy IMAP hosting and mixed estates, including multi-domain organisations moved in a single programme.
Security hardening	Identity protection and conditional access with Microsoft Entra ID, application and data protection, and mail authentication brought up to standard, often after a tenant has been running unhardened for years.
Azure workloads	Cloud infrastructure, hybrid identity and cloud backup targets designed, deployed and cost-reviewed.

Client names and commercial details are withheld under confidentiality. References can be provided directly, on request, with the client’s agreement.

On licensing. There are five realistic ways to license a mailbox on Microsoft 365 and the gap between the cheapest and the most expensive is roughly sevenfold per user per year. Most companies we meet are paying one flat rate for everybody.

We will map your users to plans before you buy, and tell you where you are over-licensed.

Tell us how many users, not which plan

Give us a rough user count and where your mail lives today. We will size the migration, price the licences properly, and tell you what your DNS is currently exposing.
