AI Readiness

AI is only as safe as the foundations it sits on.

If you switched Copilot on tomorrow, would it show salary data to people who shouldn’t see it? Read the wrong SharePoint sites? Refer to documents that should have been archived years ago?

For most Maltese businesses, the honest answer is “probably yes” – and that’s before any external risk is even considered.

AI Readiness is the assessment that answers “how big is my risk footprint, really?” and gives you a concrete plan to close the gaps before AI goes live, not after the auditor’s call.

The solution

For the COO who keeps things running smoothly.

Where Copilot Adoption is for the leader who wants to get the ball rolling, AI Readiness is for the leader who has to make sure the ball doesn’t break anything. We assess your tenant, your data estate, your permissions, your sensitivity controls and your governance — and we do it before you flip the switch.

Our Expertise

We’ve seen what “not ready” actually looks like.

Most readiness reports surface uncomfortable truths — over-shared HR folders, ancient guest accounts, unlocked sensitive sites. We don’t sugar-coat them, and we give you a sequenced plan to fix them before AI ever amplifies them.

FAQS

Common questions

A few of the questions we get asked most often.

What does an AI Readiness assessment cover?

We assess your Microsoft 365 tenant, data estate, permissions, sensitivity controls and governance before Copilot or AI agents go live. This includes data discovery, external sharing, identity and access, Purview and DLP coverage, Defender posture, and the ownership and policies needed to use AI safely.

What risks can an AI Readiness assessment uncover?

The assessment can reveal over-shared folders, stale or orphaned content, old guest accounts, weak access controls, and gaps in sensitivity labels or data loss prevention. We relate those findings to your likely AI use cases so you can see what Copilot could expose today and which risks matter most.

What do we receive at the end of the assessment?

You receive a prioritised remediation roadmap with documented risks, quick wins, dependencies and effort estimates, plus a clear definition of when you are ready to proceed. ICT Solutions can also help deliver the remediation work if you want support closing the gaps.
