Challenge & Response
!
Customer Challenge
A French industrial organisation was managing growing volumes of sensitive information across Microsoft 365, shared repositories and business processes. Classification practices varied between teams, ownership was not always clear, and security controls were difficult to apply consistently. The organisation needed better visibility into where important data was stored, how it was being used and which protection measures were appropriate. It also required a manageable governance model that strengthened information protection without creating unnecessary friction for employees or disrupting established ways of working.
