- No standing admin
- Approval per task
- Every request logged
- Audit trail
What changes for your team
No standing admin rights
Day-to-day accounts cannot change system settings or install software, which closes a common route for attackers.
Approved only when needed
When someone needs to install or update something, they ask. We approve elevation for that one task and nothing more.
Every request logged
Each request is recorded with who asked, what was approved and when, giving you a clear audit trail.
How it works
Our team manages the approvals. You keep working as normal, and you get a plain-English record of what was granted.
Staff use standard accounts
Everyone works from a normal account every day. Email, files and apps carry on as they do now.
They ask for what they need
When a task needs admin rights, the person raises a request that says what they need to install or change, and why.
Our team reviews and approves
We check each request and grant elevation for that task only. We do the watching and acting, so nobody is left holding admin rights by accident.
You get a clear record
Every request and approval is logged. You receive a plain-English summary you can share with clients, insurers or auditors when asked.
Why it matters for legal, financial services and insurance firms
Law firms
Matter files and client money need protecting from misuse. Limiting admin rights and logging every change supports the confidentiality you owe clients. IT for law firms
Financial services
Payment and account systems are a prime target. Tight control over who can change settings or install software helps protect customer data. IT for financial services
Insurance
Claims and policy systems hold personal data. Removing standing admin rights and keeping an audit trail gives partners and auditors clear evidence of control. IT for insurance

Frequently asked questions
Will this slow my team down?
Not for everyday work. Staff keep their normal accounts and only raise a request when a task needs admin rights.
What counts as an admin task?
Typically installing or updating software, changing system settings or altering device configuration. We agree the list with you during setup.
How are requests recorded?
We log each request with who asked, what was needed, who approved it and when. You can review that history or share it when asked.
Does this cover Microsoft 365 as well?
Where it fits your setup, yes. Our team applies the same approach to Microsoft 365 administration, so changes to tenant settings are controlled and logged.
