Q&A from the campaign
Drift Watch · Week 12 of 12 · October 20, 2026 · by Concura's Lead CMMC assessors

Twelve weeks of drift talk — and the questions kept coming. The three we heard most:
"Is this an assessment?" No. Concura Managed monitors and reports; it never issues compliance determinations. Assessment stays a separate, formal event.
"Do you fix what drifts?" We detect, report, and explain. Changes stay in your change control — deliberate, attributable, yours.
"What do you monitor?" Microsoft environments — Intune, Defender XDR, Sentinel, and Purview — compared continuously against your approved baselines.
