BACKGROUND

I am the CEO of a consumer products & services company

We are a Canadian software company specializing in enterprise IT security, Microsoft 365 administration, and compliance solutions. Our primary product, Access Witness, is a software platform that helps organizations monitor, record, and investigate historical SharePoint Online permissions.

The software runs within the customer's own infrastructure, keeping sensitive permission records under their control. We provide software licensing, updates, technical support, and deployment assistance to business and enterprise customers.
