Managed compliance services for Microsoft 365 and data protection
Harrby helps you use Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Purview to protect sensitive data, meet regulatory expectations and reduce compliance risk.
We design and manage practical compliance controls such as data loss prevention, retention, sensitivity labelling and audit so your organisation can demonstrate control over information without slowing staff down.
Turn compliance requirements into practical controls in Microsoft 365
Instead of treating compliance as a paperwork exercise, we help you use the tools you already own to reduce real information risk.
Better protection of sensitive information
Use sensitivity labels, data classification and data loss prevention to reduce the chance of important data being shared in the wrong way.
Retention that matches legal and business needs
Apply retention and deletion policies that reflect regulatory requirements and internal policies instead of keeping everything forever.
Increased confidence for executives and regulators
Show that you understand where key data lives, how it is protected and how long it is kept.
Less manual compliance administration
Automate common controls using Microsoft Purview so compliance teams spend more time on oversight and less on chasing individual issues.
Clear evidence for audits and reviews
Maintain configuration records and activity logs that support internal audits, external reviews and incident investigations.
Controls that staff can live with day to day
Design labelling, classification and sharing experiences that are simple enough for busy staff to follow consistently.
What we manage in Microsoft compliance and Purview
We help you design, configure and run Microsoft 365 and Purview features that support your compliance and data protection obligations.
Information classification and sensitivity labels
Design of label taxonomy, policies and user experience so staff can classify information consistently across email, documents and Teams.
Data loss prevention policies
DLP policies for email, SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams that detect and control inappropriate sharing or transfer of sensitive information.
Retention and records management
Retention labels and policies that control how long information is kept, when it is disposed of and how records are protected from change.
Insider risk and activity monitoring
Configuration of insider risk and related monitoring scenarios to highlight unusual activity that may need investigation.
eDiscovery and investigation readiness
Setup of eDiscovery, holds and search capabilities so you can respond to legal or regulatory requests in a structured way.
Compliance reporting and dashboards
Reports and dashboards that show the current state of controls, policy hits and trends over time.
Policy governance and change management
Processes for proposing, approving and updating compliance policies so changes are controlled and traceable.
The Harrby difference for compliance
We understand both the technology and the business side of compliance, so controls are realistic, documented and supportable.
Technology and policy in the same conversation
We work with IT, risk, legal and business stakeholders so compliance controls reflect real obligations and technical realities.
Practical use of Microsoft Purview
We focus on features that give you meaningful risk reduction instead of turning on every possible option at once.
Clear documentation of decisions and configuration
We document why controls were chosen, how they are configured and how they should be maintained over time.
Alignment with your regulatory context
We consider your specific industry, privacy and regulatory drivers instead of using a one size fits all template.
Plain English explanations for leadership
We explain risks, options and trade offs in simple language so executives and boards can make informed decisions.
Compliance managed services frequently asked questions
Common questions organisations ask when they are considering managed compliance services for Microsoft 365 and Purview.
Can you work with our legal or risk team
Yes. We regularly work with internal legal, risk and privacy teams to translate requirements into specific Microsoft 365 and Purview controls.
Do we need Microsoft Purview licences in place before we start
We can help you review your current licensing and advise which Purview features are available or which licence changes may be worth considering.
Can you help us align with privacy and data protection obligations
Yes. We do not replace legal advice, but we help you implement technical controls that support your privacy and data protection obligations.
Do you only work with Microsoft 365 data
Our focus is Microsoft 365 and Purview. Where other systems hold important data, we can help identify integration or process options as part of a broader approach.
How disruptive is it to roll out labels and DLP policies
We usually start with monitoring and limited scope to understand behaviour, then gradually increase coverage and enforcement once patterns are understood and communicated.
Can you provide ongoing reporting for executives or boards
Yes. We can prepare regular summaries that highlight key metrics, trends and material issues in a format suitable for leadership or board reporting.
