Edgile is Microsoft’s 2022 Compliance Partner of the Year

On June 28, 2022 Microsoft announced Edgile as the winner of the global Compliance Partner of the Year award. This prestigious award highlights our truly exceptional work in delivering solutions built on the Microsoft Cloud that positively impact our mutual customers.

“Microsoft has been one of Edgile’s most important partners since our founding in 2001, and we’re thrilled to be honored as Partner of the Year,” noted Don Elledge, Edgile CEO. “Because we look at security through a business lens, our solutions go beyond protecting a customer’s on-prem and cloud environments by leveraging advanced Microsoft security technologies to drive better and more compliant business outcomes.”

Edgile’s unique Quick Start Data Governance solution

Edgile’s data security framework is designed to help enterprises measure the maturity of their unstructured data governance. We provide a plan for risk management and remediation of sensitive data, including the protection of intellectual property.

Our winning entry outlined a fast track Microsoft E5 data protection and compliance solution for a $13.2 billion healthcare organization serving over 3 million patients. The company faced a pandemic-induced security and compliance challenge in 2020. Their 55,000-strong workforce transitioned to a digital cloud environment virtually overnight. They needed a cloud-based data governance solution—fast.

Edgile delivered a compliance proof of concept and established remediation for advanced compliance adoption and implementation. Edgile’s M365 Data Security Quick Start program got the client into production in less than three months—a timeframe far faster than the typical deployment. The transition into the full Microsoft integrated security platform increased their data protection and governance maturity across all systems, content locations, and platforms, and significantly reduced their compliance risks.

This is just one example of Edgile’s proven solutions that combines Microsoft’s best-in-class security, identity and compliance technology with our strategy, design, and deployment expertise to help secure the modern enterprise. Security and compliance innovation is more critical today, as enterprises deal with extended and remote workforces and an expanded partner ecosystem. Our M365 Data Security Quick Start is already being scaled to organizations in other industries dealing with unstructured data risk issues.
