ProviScore · The Provicore Standard
Understand your IT posture.
Know what comes next.
ProviScore is Provicore’s proprietary method for combining all areas of IT into a realistic, comprehensive view of your overall technology posture. See what is working well, where gaps exist and what deserves attention—with tangible findings behind the score.
Discuss an assessmentOne coordinated view
Evidence.
Context.
A plan forward.
Stakeholders get more than an assurance that everything is secure. ProviScore connects the score to specific findings and practical next steps, explained without requiring an IT background.
The complete environment
A broader view than a single security tool.
Updates and patching are part of the picture. ProviScore brings identity, infrastructure, security, recovery, policies and operational practices together. Our proprietary method connects technical findings, configuration reviews, documentation and operational evidence so the score reflects the wider environment.
Active Directory & identity
On-premises Active Directory, Microsoft Entra ID and hybrid identity. Review authentication, privileged access, account lifecycle practices and access controls.
Microsoft 365
Tenant configuration, email security, external sharing, collaboration settings and administrative practices across Microsoft 365.
Endpoints & servers
Physical and virtual endpoints, servers, inventory, patching, endpoint protection, encryption and device management.
Network security
Firewalls, remote access, wireless networks, segmentation and the configuration and management of network infrastructure.
Backup & recovery
Backup coverage, recovery procedures, protection of backup systems, testing evidence and business continuity needs.
Compliance readiness
Relevant technology controls, policies and supporting documentation. Identify gaps that require further assessment or specialist review.
Operational policies
Onboarding and offboarding, change management, incident handling, documentation, asset lifecycle practices and defined responsibilities.
What makes Provicore different
Expert MSP support.
Visibility you can verify.
ProviScore is built into our managed services approach. Alongside day-to-day support and proactive management, you get a clear view of the work, the findings and the priorities behind our recommendations.
You do not have to take a general statement about security at face value. We walk through the evidence with you so owners, partners and other stakeholders can understand where the environment stands and make informed decisions.
Your business shapes the assessment.
We meet with you to understand your operations, critical systems, client expectations and applicable compliance requirements. Together, we identify what is relevant to your business and what needs closer attention.
Those conversations guide the assessment scope and improvement roadmap. Recommendations reflect your priorities and responsibilities, with a clear explanation of what was reviewed and what remains outside scope.
Compliance-related findings help guide planning; ProviScore does not issue a specific compliance rating or certification.
From assessment to action.
01
Start with your business
Meet with your team to understand how you work, what matters most and which requirements apply.
02
Establish the baseline
Review the relevant systems, controls and available evidence, documenting scope and anything that remains unverified.
03
Explain the findings
Make strengths, gaps and unverified areas visible, with context behind the score.
04
Prioritize the work
Build a practical roadmap informed by risk, dependencies and business needs.
05
Review progress
Reassess at agreed intervals and update priorities as systems and requirements change.
More than a number
The score gives leadership a clear starting point. The findings show the tangible items behind it: where protections are supported by evidence, where controls are missing or incomplete, and where further verification is needed. You can see why an item matters and what should happen next. Significant risks remain visible even when the overall score is strong.
For managed services clients
Built into your MSP partnership.
- An onboarding baseline assessment
- Quarterly score reviews
- A prioritized improvement roadmap
Our managed IT support comes with this visibility and individual attention to your company’s needs. We review the findings with you, explain the priorities and agree the next steps. Specialized assessments, external audits and remediation outside the agreement are scoped separately.
For organizations exploring their options
Start with a standalone assessment.
Understand your current environment and priorities before deciding on ongoing managed services. We agree the assessment scope, deliverables, timing and fees with you before work begins.
