SME technology foundation

Start your business with the basics done properly.

For newly set up businesses, we help put the first layer in place: domain, email, shared drive, endpoint protection, and sensible document security for up to 10 seats. Small teams still need proper control over accounts, files, and access.

01Why it matters early

Bad data habits are cheaper to prevent than to clean up.

Smaller businesses are often more exposed because accounts are shared, files are stored in personal drives, passwords are reused, and access is not removed when roles change. A clean foundation keeps the business easier to manage as it grows.

Identity

Set up named users, MFA where appropriate, admin separation, and a practical way to manage access as staff join or leave.

Files

Create a shared drive structure so documents belong to the business, not one person's laptop or personal cloud account.

Protection

Start with antivirus, secure email habits, controlled sharing, and basic document handling rules before sensitive data spreads.

02Starter setup

Enough structure for day one, without overbuying.

The goal is not to sell a complex stack. It is to give founders and small teams a professional operating base that can scale into Microsoft 365 security, document protection, and managed support later.

From $399 per seat / year

Starter scope covers up to 10 seats and depends on domain status, licence choice, and whether migration or device work is needed. We keep the first setup clear and small.
