Purview & Copilot
Security Consultant
I’m Faithful Freeman, a Microsoft 365 security and compliance consultant specialising in Microsoft Purview and secure Microsoft 365 Copilot adoption. I help enterprise and regulated organisations classify and protect their data, stop oversharing before AI exposes it, and prove compliance to auditors and boards.
I hold the Microsoft SC-100 Cybersecurity Architect Expert and SC-300 certifications and an MSc in Cybersecurity (Merit), and I have run my own consultancy since 2018, delivering for clients including Allianz, Adobe and Société Générale. My approach is consultative: a clear current-state assessment, a prioritised roadmap, hands-on implementation, and measurable uplift in Secure Score and Compliance Manager.
