## How many people are asking for it
73 posts on Reddit asked to hire someone for Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace security setup between November 2025 and November 2026, 49 of them in the last 90 days, most on r/Office365, r/salesforce, r/sysadmin.

## Paid separately, at cost
- Your Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace subscription, paid to the vendor
- Business Premium or Entra ID P1 licences, only if those controls are wanted

## What the buyer supplies
- Global admin or super admin access to your tenant
- Access to your domain's DNS settings
- A list of current staff, so old accounts can be closed

## What the price does not cover
- A setup service, not a certification such as Cyber Essentials; no setting makes a business fully secure
- Conditional access, Defender and device rules are set only where your licences include them
- For an existing tenant; a new Microsoft 365 or Workspace setup is a separate service

## Rules that apply
- Since 1 February 2024 Gmail requires every sender to personal Gmail accounts to set up SPF or DKIM, and anyone sending more than 5,000 messages a day to Gmail accounts to also set up DMARC. Source: [Gmail Help: Email sender guidelines](https://support.google.com/a/answer/81126)

## A cheaper way to do it
- Microsoft Entra security defaults need no extra licence and require every user to register for multifactor authentication and administrators to use it.
