    The Problem This Companion Solves

    Microsoft Exchange and M365 generate communications at enterprise scale, but they were never designed to be systems of record. Windows File Shares and SharePoint accumulate Dark Data and Dirty Data over years and decades. Copilot and Fabric reason over all of it. Purview can classify what it can see, but cannot itself eliminate ROT or enrich missing metadata.

    The result is unreliable AI, eDiscovery cost inflation, and a governance posture that cannot be defended.

    Built for the executives who own the data estate

    For the CDO

    Every AI initiative you deliver depends on the Microsoft data estate. Copilot reasons over Exchange, SharePoint, and OneDrive. Fabric ingests from file shares and SharePoint. Custom AI applications reason over whatever they can access. When the underlying estate has never been classified, every AI initiative inherits the full chaos of that estate.

    The Trusted Data Refinery is the operational intelligence layer for the entire estate. At eight million file objects per hour, it scans Windows File Shares, SharePoint, and OneDrive in place across every department, region, and business unit. The data estate goes from a liability you cannot see to an asset you can govern, defend, and build on.

    For the CIO

    Storage and compute costs that represent up to 25 percent of your budget continue to grow because ungoverned data continues to accumulate. ROT that has never been identified cannot be eliminated. Every month, you pay storage fees, compute cycles, and AI processing costs to handle content nobody wants and nobody can trust.

    The Trusted Data Refinery eliminates ROT in place. The Trusted Data Archive replaces fragile communications retention with compliance-grade journaling. The Trusted Data Portal consolidates governed intake, workflow, and AI activation into a single executive control layer.

    For the CISO

    Every Microsoft environment your organization runs is a potential exposure surface. Sensitive content sits in file shares and SharePoint sites that nobody has classified. Privileged communications get exposed to AI surfaces that were never designed to enforce policy. Chain of custody breaks the moment a file gets copied.

    Smart Stack 3.0 operates inside your existing security boundary. Sensitive Data Classification identifies PII and PHI in place. WORM retention makes communications tamper-evident. The AI Governance Workflow controls what reaches Copilot, Fabric, and beyond. Authentication runs through SSO, OAuth2, Azure AD, and Entra ID. Your data never leaves your tenant.
