Verified backups: Backups are taken every two hours and checked to ensure functionality.

Local & Remote Support

Our cybersecurity services (like our Security EssentialsTM) are available around the globe. They’ve been carefully designed to provide world-class services and support wherever our customers need.

But we also have offices in the US providing full, in-person support to local customers. Services include wired and wireless network design, deployment, management and security, troubleshooting.

From right-sizing IT support to stay within budget, to keeping storefronts and home offices secure. We believe that the unique requirements of small businesses are best served by an IT company that is purpose-built to support you.

Who We Serve:

Home Office

Home offices need to be carefully protected because the company shares resources with the home. The ‘business’ side of the network is usually connected to the ‘personal’ side, presenting a unique challenge.

Owners should focus on how to deploy the home/home office network in a way that protects and supports the company while allowing the family the freedom to use their devices however they want. It doesn’t need to be expensive! A few small (often free) improvements can make all the difference.

Brick and Mortar / Storefront

Brick and mortar businesses have special requirements when compared with office-based businesses. For example, because the business location is open to the public, anyone can walk in and attempt to connect to the network.

Owners need to consider things like the design of the Wi-Fi network, maintaining uptime of the POS systems, and keeping the company safe from customers who accidentally bring malware into the store’s network.

Single or Multi-Location Business

Every business is unique.

Our company specializes in supporting small and medium-sized businesses of all types. From office-based businesses with one or multiple locations, to brick-and-mortar establishments and other customer-facing locations, we’ve carefully designed our services to help.

As a ‘security-first’ IT company, we offer all of the essential IT services you need to keep your business running, along with cutting-edge cybersecurity to keep you safe.

Enterprise-Grade Cybersecurity for All

Our primary goal is to help protect small businesses from cyber attacks including ransomware, business email compromise, phishing, and even zero-day attacks.

Our Security Essentials package combines award-winning, 24/7 threat detection and response using cutting-edge MDR – to protect your systems and data from the most advanced threats, along with the most reliable backup system in the business.

IT Support How and When You Need IT

Many small businesses forgo security because they can’t afford managed IT support. We’re trying to turn this model on its head.

Some businesses need fully managed IT. Others need a bit of support for daily operations. But most just need a trusted partner to call on in a time of need.

Whatever your IT requirements are – we’ve got your back!

Advanced & Custom Services

We are proud to offer small businesses access to advanced services and technologies including: custom network and firewall deployments, disaster recovery / business continuity, 24/7 SOC, SIEM, & XDR, active defense using honeypots and cyber deception, and offensive services: vulnerability assessments and penetration testing.

Every service we offer is carefully optimized for small businesses.

Security Isn’t An Add-On. It’s the Foundation.

Every service that we offer is designed from the ground-up with security in mind.

Cutting-Edge Solutions

Thwart attackers with active techniques like penetration testing to harden our defenses and honeypots to trigger a cascade of defensive measures if they do get in.

Enterprise-Grade Security on Main Street

Traditional cybersecurity practices for small businesses and homes focus almost exclusively on passive defensive technologies.

In contrast, large enterprises are able to pay for advanced measures like active defensive techniques such as XDR and honeypots, as well as offensive security services like vulnerability assessments and penetration tests.

But these services are critical to defend against even moderately skilled attackers.

That’s why we want to turn this model on its’ head, offering advanced features to small businesses and homes that are typically reserved for the big players.
