Most businesses own far more of Microsoft 365 than they use, and secure far less of it than they think. Performance Connectivity, Inc. (PCI) closes both gaps: your cloud configured properly, protected as a whole environment, and put to work — including Copilot, used with judgment.
Performance Connectivity, Inc. (PCI) is a Microsoft 365 and cloud consulting firm in Purchase, NY, serving Westchester County and Fairfield County businesses since 1997. We configure Microsoft 365 around how your people actually work, secure it as part of one environment, and put it to use — including Copilot, directed with guardrails rather than switched on and hoped for. Most firms own more of Microsoft 365 than they use and secure less of it than they think; we close both gaps.
Licenses bought, logins handed out — and for most rollouts, that’s where it stops. Security sits at default. Half the features never get used. The environment is owned, but not run.
Owning the license isn’t the same as using the environment. That distance — between what you pay for and what you actually get — is the first thing we close.
Identity, email, files, and collaboration built around how your people actually work — not a generic default someone clicked through. Done once, done right.
Your cloud isn’t a separate island — it’s part of the same attack surface as everything else you run. So we protect it the same way: as one environment, not a loose set of logins — and documented for the compliance requirements your clients and regulators keep raising.
Guardrails first — what data it can touch, who’s accountable, where it actually helps — then put in front of the people who’ll get real work out of it. That’s the difference between AI that runs your business and AI you’re running.
Decide what data Copilot can reach and who’s accountable for it — before anyone starts asking it questions.
Pointed at the tasks where it moves the needle — not switched on everywhere and left to guess.
Put in front of the people who’ll get real work out of it — so the license turns into hours returned, not a novelty.
We don’t count features turned on. We count what changed for the business: hours returned, risk reduced, revenue enabled. Microsoft 365 and the cloud are a means — the outcome is what we hold ourselves to. It’s the same discipline behind our Technology Advisory work.
Read → Translate → Decide · Est. 1997 · Purchase, NYBecause most businesses own far more of Microsoft 365 than they use and secure far less of it than they think. Licenses get bought and logins handed out, then security sits at default and half the features never get switched on. We close the gap between what you pay for and what you actually get.
Identity, email, files, and collaboration configured around how your people actually work — then protected as part of the same environment as everything else you run, and maintained so it does not drift back to defaults. Done once and done right, instead of a generic setup someone clicked through.
No. Out of the box it is convenient, not secured — the defaults favor getting you running, not keeping attackers out. We harden identity and sign-in, set access rules on purpose, and put guardrails on where your data can go, because the cloud is part of your attack surface, not a separate safe island.
Only with guardrails first. Copilot is worth real hours on the right tasks, but switching it on before you have decided what data it can reach and who is accountable is how quiet exposure gets created. We set the boundaries, aim it where it actually helps, and put it in front of the people who will get work out of it.
Yes — the same way we handle any transition: map what you have first, build alongside what is already running, and cut over quietly. The goal is a normal Tuesday, not a disruption. Your setup is documented and belongs to you, so nothing about the move leaves you dependent on a black box.
Yes. Support and protection follow the person across whatever device they are on — office, home, or the road — so a hybrid team is just how work happens, not a special case. We work across Westchester County, NY and Fairfield County, CT, on-site when it is needed and remote for everything else.
