What TIDE does.

We help business leaders cut unnecessary IT spend, tidy up how systems are used, and make the business easier to align with UK GDPR, Cyber Essentials and CE+.

Keep the business in control

We make sure the company owns its systems, knows where everything is, and can get access when it needs it.

Make security practical

Microsoft 365 is not secure just because it is switched on. We review the basics and put sensible protections in place without turning the environment into a maze.

Reduce admin work

New users, new laptops and routine changes should be easy. We remove the repeat work that slows teams down.

Security defaults

Microsoft 365 still needs setting up properly.

Buying Microsoft 365 gives the business strong tools, but it does not automatically create the right security setup. TIDE helps review accounts, access rules, device controls, mobile app protection, sharing settings and audit evidence so the business is not relying on hope.

  • Accounts
    Make sign-ins harder to abuse.
  • Devices
    Know which laptops and mobiles can reach company data.
  • Evidence
    Keep the proof easier to find for Cyber Essentials, CE+ and client checks.
Why this matters

The data is there, but the story is spread out.

In Microsoft 365, the useful evidence sits in different places: Intune for devices, MAM for app control, operating system details, annual audit exports, and separate records for business-owned and BYOD devices. TIDE brings that into a more usable view so people are not assembling it by hand every time they need to prove something.

  • One view for leaders
    So decisions are based on a joined-up picture.
  • Less manual effort
    So IT is not spending time stitching exports together.
  • Cleaner CE+ evidence
    So the audit trail is easier to prepare and explain.
TIDE Portal

The portal turns scattered admin data into something useful.

Instead of asking people to open several Microsoft 365 screens and then export data into spreadsheets, the portal helps surface the information in a format that is easier to review, share and explain.

  • Leadership view
    A cleaner summary for owners and directors.
  • IT view
    A faster way to spot drift and gather evidence.
  • Audit view
    Better preparation for annual checks and CE+.
