Microsoft Information Protection

Sensitivity labels for your M365 environment. Classify, label, and protect data — before it leaves your organization.

Your Data Is Not Classified — and Therefore Not Protectable


Every organization has sensitive data: customer lists, contracts, salary tables, product strategies. Without sensitivity labels, neither employees nor systems know which documents need protection. Emails with customer data get forwarded, files with financial figures get shared publicly — not out of malice, but because there is no classification.


This is not your IT team's failure. Microsoft 365 already includes sensitivity labels — but configuration requires a well-thought-out concept: which labels, which protection settings, which defaults. Without a structured approach, labels stay deactivated or get used inconsistently.


With the right approach, you classify and protect your data in 2 weeks. Labels are the foundation for DLP, Copilot readiness, and GDPR compliance.

ACTIVITIES IN DETAIL

DELIVERABLES

  • Analyze existing data landscape and classification requirements

  • Define label taxonomy: 4-6 core labels with sublabels (e.g., Confidential > All Employees / Specific People)

  • Configure sensitivity labels in the Microsoft Purview Portal

  • Set up content markings (header, footer, watermark)

  • Configure encryption for highly sensitive labels (Rights Management, Do Not Forward)

  • Publish default labels and mandatory labeling policies

  • Container labels for Teams, M365 Groups, and SharePoint Sites (with E5)

  • Set up pilot group, test, and plan phased rollout

  • Set up pilot group, test, and plan phased rollout

  • Label Taxonomy: Documented classification concept with labels, sublabels, and clear assignment logic

  • Label Configuration: Sensitivity labels with content markings and encryption — fully configured

  • Rollout Plan: Phased rollout with pilot group, go-live criteria, and communication plan

  • End-User Materials: Training documents and quick reference guide for employees

  • Complete Project Documentation: All configuration decisions documented without gaps, audit-ready

3 steps. From start to finished project

How a typical Microsoft project runs with DAMALO

STEP 1

Choose a blueprint and analyze your environment

Select a proven blueprint. AI agents pull your licenses, current config, and compliance needs into the plan. No generic advice.

STEP 2

Receive your plan and start implementation

Review the plan. AI agents draft architecture, sequence tasks, and map dependencies to Microsoft best practices. Tailored to your tenant.

STEP 3

Guided implementation through to completion

Execute step by step. AI agents provide PowerShell scripts, admin center deep-links, and walkthroughs. Every change auto-documented.

The result: A completed Microsoft project in 1-2 weeks. Documented. Audit-ready. Understood by your team. Adjustable at any time. No change requests. No follow-up engagements.

M365 Tenant Readiness

Microsoft 365

Security

Problem: Misconfigurations in the tenant lead to security gaps, licensing issues, and compliance risks.

Scope: Review global settings in Admin Center and Entra ID - Validate Entra Connect (users/groups/devices/writeback) - Consistent UPN strategy and hardening of admin accounts - Onboard domains, assess DNS and network access

Result: A stable, license-compliant M365 tenant as a reliable foundation for all subsequent projects.

Conditional Access

Microsoft 365

Security

Problem: Uncontrolled access is a primary risk — MFA and Conditional Access protect identities.

Scope: Gather requirements per user group - Policies for user risk, location, device/platform, and apps - Block legacy authentication, activate session controls - Structured rollout: Report-Only → Pilot → Go-Live

Result: Verifiably secured access with clear policies and high usability.

Defender for Office 365

Microsoft 365

Security

Problem: Phishing and malware via email are among the most common attack vectors in mid-market companies.

Scope: Safe Links and Safe Attachments including detonation - Configure anti-phishing and impersonation protection - Customize policies per user group - Reporting dashboard and end-user awareness materials

Result: Measurably fewer successful phishing attempts and a well-documented email security architecture.
