Finchloom Earns Microsoft's Modernize Endpoints Specialization as AI Raises the Stakes for Endpoint Security
The Californer/10354867

THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. - Californer -- Finchloom, a 100% Microsoft-focused cloud solutions provider, has earned Microsoft's Modernize Endpoints specialization, recognizing its proven expertise in securely managing, deploying, and modernizing the devices organizations depend on.

Microsoft's Modernize Endpoints specialization reflects expertise in:

• Secure endpoints across hybrid work environments
• Manage devices with Microsoft Intune
• Protect identities and data across devices
• Enable AI adoption with a secure technology foundation

As employees work across multiple locations, organizations must manage a growing number of devices while keeping business applications and sensitive data secure. Modern endpoint management gives businesses control over the devices employees use, keeping them secure, up to date, and aligned with organizational policies.

"Organizations can't maximize the benefits of workplace technologies, including Microsoft 365 Copilot, without a secure and well-managed foundation," said Jim Richardson, CEO & Founder at Finchloom. "We see organizations investing heavily in AI while overlooking the devices their people use every day. That's a problem. If those endpoints aren't secure and well managed, you're creating more risk while trying to create more value. This specialization recognizes our ability to get those fundamentals right."

AI Adoption Starts with a Secure Foundation

The opportunity presented by AI is significant, but so are the risks.

In April 2026, Microsoft Defender Research identified a phishing campaign targeting more than 35,000 users across 13,000 organizations in 26 countries, highlighting the security challenges businesses face. Secure identities, modern endpoint management, and strong governance are essential to adopting AI securely and realizing its full business value.

By helping customers modernize endpoint management and security, Finchloom supports digital transformation initiatives that prepare organizations for the future of work.

A Microsoft-Focused Approach to What Comes Next

Finchloom has grown from a Microsoft-focused consulting practice into a professional services and cloud provider serving mid-market and enterprise organizations across the United States.

"Technology has changed a lot since we started Finchloom," said Richardson. "We've gone from helping customers navigate the move to the cloud to working through security, endpoint management, and now AI. Through all of that, the goal has stayed simple: make the technology work better for the people using it. This specialization is a great recognition of that journey."
