Managed IT
Managed Security Services for Orange County Offices
Managed security services means our own Cybersecurity team runs and watches the protection on your computers, email, sign-ins and backups around the clock, and steps in when something looks wrong. It's built for Orange County medical and dental practices, accounting and tax firms and other small offices holding data they can't afford to lose.
Security without the scare tactics
Most attacks on small businesses aren't sophisticated. They start with a convincing email or a password reused from another site, and a computer that missed its updates makes the job easier. We get those basics right first, then keep watching for anything that gets past them.
What's included
We set each of these up, then keep it current for as long as you're with us.
Protected devices and accounts
Threat detection across every computer, your sign-ins and your email. Our own Cybersecurity team watches it around the clock and steps in when something looks wrong.
Secure sign-ins
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) on email and key apps, often using Duo Security, so a stolen password isn't enough to get in.
Email filtering
Scam and phishing emails stopped before they reach your team, and encryption for messages that carry sensitive information.
Tested backups
Computers, servers and cloud accounts backed up. We test the restores as well, so if the worst happens, you get your data back.
Help for your team
Short, ongoing training and practice scam emails, so your staff learn to spot the real thing before they click.
One place for the warning signs
Activity from your systems collected in one place, so unusual patterns raise an alert instead of going unnoticed.
When an insurer or a client asks about your security
Cyber insurance renewals tend to arrive with a long security questionnaire, and bigger clients sometimes send forms of their own. We fill them in with you from what's actually set up, so every answer is true and you can show how. If a question points at a real gap, we'll tell you what closing it involves well before the renewal date, and leave the decision with you.
If something does go wrong
Plenty of new clients first call us in the middle of a problem. Usually a phishing email or a simple mistake has let someone in, and computers are locked by ransomware or data has been copied out. The people who respond are our own team. We contain it, clean up and secure the environment, then close the gap that let them in, and we tell you plainly what happened as we go.
Who it suits, and what we won't sell you
Best suited to
Medical practices, accounting and tax firms, and any other business holding information it can't afford to lose or have copied.
No scare tactics
We won't frighten you into buying tools you don't need. If something cheaper or simpler does the job, that's what we'll recommend.
