About
Why this firm exists.
Most firms have IT support. Few have anyone who owns control operation, evidence, and audit readiness inside Microsoft.
The thesis
Compliance breaks because responsibility is split.
IT manages systems. Audit asks for proof. Compliance asks for documentation. Procurement asks for questionnaires. Nobody owns the operational layer in between.
Advisory firms write recommendations and leave. IT providers manage infrastructure but do not own compliance. Internal IT teams configure features but cannot prove controls. The model creates a gap: the people defining requirements are not responsible for implementation, and the people implementing them are not accountable for proof. Annual audits find the same gaps every year.
StremarControl exists to be the operator that takes this over - control operation, evidence production, and audit readiness inside Microsoft 365, continuously.
Microsoft-native by design.
We operate within the Microsoft 365 security and compliance stack - Entra ID, Intune, Defender XDR, Purview and adjacent Microsoft controls such as Sentinel and Azure services where they materially improve enforcement, evidence, and governance.
This is a deliberate operational decision, not a limitation.
The organisations we work with run on Microsoft. Their controls, evidence, and governance should be native to that stack. Bolting on third-party tools creates complexity without improving outcomes.
Microsoft-native means: fewer moving parts, better evidence, faster enforcement, and one operator who knows the platform deeply.
How we operate
Evidence Over Anecdote
Policies in a Word document do not survive a real audit. Only technical enforcement, validated by production evidence, constitutes operational compliance.
Senior-Led, Not Delegated
Every engagement is led by a senior practitioner with direct technical authority. No junior handoff. Technically deep delivery.
Continuous, Not Annual
Environments decay the moment they are configured. Compliance is a continuous operation, not an annual checkbox activity.
The model
We keep engagements senior-led so control ownership and technical accountability stay direct.
Each engagement starts with a sprint. Most convert to ongoing compliance operations.
Senior-led engagements. No junior handoff.
Who operates your controls
Engagements are delivered by our specialist Microsoft 365 compliance team with direct ownership of control design, implementation, and evidence production.
We do not separate advisory from execution. The same team responsible for defining controls is accountable for implementing and operating them inside your environment.
