What this page covers

Use one baseline so every new customer tenant follows the same reporting and remediation path.

Audience: MSP delivery leads and onboarding engineers

Why this matters

Teams lose time when each engineer follows a different onboarding sequence.

Recommended approach

Standardize tenant intake with role validation, consent checks, scope selection, and first-scan evidence capture.

  • Role checklist avoids partial report coverage
  • Consent checks catch broken permissions early
  • Saved scope prevents noisy reporting
