Sample issue

Illustrative. Before approving more Microsoft 365 email protection.

Decision. Should a small IT team buy an add-on before checking coverage? Hold the purchase while the team checks which policy applies to the recipients in scope.

Evidence. Microsoft documents how default, preset and custom email policies interact. This example assumes the team has not verified its own policy scope. It does not report a tenant test or a recent change. Read Microsoft’s policy precedence documentation.

Action. Pick a control and representative recipients. Record the entitlement, applicable policy and anything you cannot verify. Use that record to decide whether a pilot or a quote review is warranted.

Reply. What would you need to see before approving the extra spend?
