Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace sit at the center of many organizations — email, files, identities, collaboration, and access to critical information.
But security settings accumulate over time. Defaults change. Accounts get added. Permissions spread. Old configurations remain in place. It can be difficult to know what actually needs attention.
Butters provides independent security assessments designed to help organizations understand their current environment, identify meaningful risks, and prioritize practical improvements.
Google Workspace environments can grow organically over years of users, devices, applications, groups, and shared files.
A Butters assessment reviews key Workspace security settings and practices to identify gaps that may expose accounts, data, or administrative access.
The goal is not to change everything. It is to identify the settings and risks that deserve your attention.
For most organizations, the identity layer is the front door.
We review areas such as authentication, multi-factor protections, administrative access, account lifecycle, privileged users, and unnecessary access.
Small improvements here can significantly reduce risk across the rest of the environment.
Email remains one of the most common paths into an organization.
Butters can review security controls related to account protection, suspicious access, phishing exposure, email authentication, forwarding, administrative privileges, and other settings that affect the security of your users.
The focus is on practical protections that reduce common risks without creating unnecessary friction.
A security assessment should do more than generate a long list of settings.
We organize findings around what matters most:
What we found
Why it matters
How significant the risk is
What we recommend doing
What should be addressed first
That makes the assessment useful not only to technical teams, but also to leadership and organizations that may rely on outside IT support.
Finding a problem is only useful if you know what to do next.
Butters provides practical remediation guidance designed to help your internal team or technology provider make the appropriate changes.
Recommendations are prioritized so you can focus on meaningful improvements first instead of trying to fix everything at once.
Butters is not there to sell you a security platform, replace your IT provider, or turn an assessment into a larger technology project.
The role is simple:
Understand the environment.
Identify meaningful risk.
Explain it clearly.
Recommend practical next steps.
That independence helps keep the focus on what is best for your organization.
Depending on the scope of the engagement, a security assessment can include a review of your Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace configuration, prioritized findings, clear explanations of risk, practical remediation recommendations, and a discussion of the results with your team or technology provider.
The objective is to leave you with something useful — not a hundred-page report that sits on a shelf.
Security does not have to mean fixing every possible issue at once.
Most organizations benefit more from understanding their largest risks, addressing the highest-priority gaps, and improving their security posture over time.
Butters focuses on helping you make those decisions clearly and confidently.
Whether you want an independent review, a second opinion on your current configuration, or a clearer understanding of where to focus next, we can help.
