Governance, Risk & Compliance Services in Dubai, UAE & USA
Audits rarely fail because controls are missing. They fail because nobody can prove the controls were working all year.
M365 Enterprise Hub delivers governance, risk and compliance (GRC) services for organizations in Dubai, across the UAE and in the USA. We map frameworks such as ISO 27001, NIST CSF and the UAE IA Regulation to your Microsoft 365 and Azure controls, then help you keep the evidence current.
Compliance is where our cyber security services turn into audit-ready proof.

What Are GRC and Compliance Services?
GRC services help an organization set security policy, manage risk and prove it meets legal and industry requirements.
For Microsoft environments, this means mapping each framework control to real settings in Entra ID, Intune, Defender and Purview. It also means collecting dated evidence that those settings stay in place.
We use Microsoft Purview Compliance Manager to track control status and improvement actions in one place.
Frameworks We Support
We align your controls to the frameworks your regulators, customers and auditors ask for.
UAE Regulations
UAE Information Assurance Regulation, Dubai DESC ISR, ADHICS for Abu Dhabi healthcare and the UAE Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL).
International Standards
ISO/IEC 27001:2022, ISO 27701 for privacy and the CIS Controls, mapped to Microsoft 365 and Azure.
US Frameworks
NIST CSF 2.0, SOC 2, HIPAA and CMMC readiness for organizations operating in or selling to the USA.
Why a Spreadsheet Is Not a Compliance Programme
Many firms track compliance in a spreadsheet filled in once a year. By audit day the screenshots are old and the owners have changed.
We connect controls to live technical evidence: Secure Score, Compliance Manager, Conditional Access reports and Purview logs.
That turns audit preparation from weeks of chasing into a short review of reports you already have.
