Multi Cloud strategy workshop
Digital transformation requires a high-performance, flexible and agile IT landscape. Accordingly, you should prioritize the design of your multi-cloud strategy as the foundation to support a successful digital transformation of your business.

In the course of the multi-cloud strategy workshop, we design your individual multi-cloud infrastructure in partnership, on-site or remotely – in the form of a management-oriented description including the planned cloud transition and a migration roadmap tailored to your needs.

Using established business cases, we summarize the project plan to create the next steps for you. Based on the jointly developed roadmap, we define the speed of your cloud transformation and coordinate individual transition packages. This enables precise resource, capacity and cost planning.

Our experienced concept and design specialists support you in planning individual cloud transitions and develop a detailed procedure for a customized migration, along with any change management.

DTS Compliance Assessments for Microsoft 365
As a result of the increase in demand for modern, flexible and agile system landscapes, digitalization has made significant advances in companies. Company-wide collaboration solutions, such as Microsoft 365, are now considered standard and help companies deliver modern working environments with productivity enhancement tools and corporate communications.

Have you taken account of the current compliance requirements of your company, some of which may be very specific, at the introduction stage? In addition to purely technical provisioning and training of your end users in the tools of Microsoft 365, a multitude of organizational and regulatory requirements that are relevant to your company, your partners and end customers have to be considered for sustainable implementation.

Many preventive measures can be taken to avoid data leaks in accordance with the GDPR or the IT Security Act 2.0, such as implementing technical and organizational measures. This is of immense importance not only for companies with critical infrastructure, but also for service providers and partners. Increasing information security, e.g. by setting up an information security management system to meet the requirements of ISO 27001, TISAX, IT Baseline Protection (BSI), is also of fundamental importance.

In our assessments, we jointly review your company’s compliance in its use of Microsoft 365 services and take a broader view of optimization potential and necessary measures in relation to compliance.

The goal of the workshop is to answer the following questions:

• How do I implement Microsoft 365 as a secure platform in my organization?
• What role does data protection play in relation to Microsoft 365?
• What role does information security play in this?
• What organizational and technical measures should be considered?
• What technical measures can be implemented and what impact do they have on the various functions in Microsoft 365?

Three reasons for the workshop:

• Support and guidance as an experienced cyber security & compliance project expert in setting up and/or reviewing existing system environments
• Focus on regulatory requirements (e.g. GDPR) and individual compliance requirements of your company
• Two separate assessment services focusing on organizational requirements and technical measures
