Cybersecurity Services
Cybersecurity built for how attacks actually happen now
The typical incident we respond to involves no malware at all. Someone hands over a valid password and the attacker walks in the front door. Antivirus was never going to stop that.
Prevention is not a strategy on its own
Ask most providers about security and you will hear about antivirus and a firewall. Both matter. Neither addresses the dominant attack pattern, which is credential theft through a convincing email followed by legitimate logins from a device nobody has ever seen before.
That is why our model starts with identity and adds detection. Conditional Access decides who can connect, from where, and on what kind of device. Phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication makes a stolen password insufficient by itself. Managed detection and response watches behavior on every endpoint around the clock and can isolate a compromised machine in minutes.
The other half is preparation. Organizations that recover well from an incident are the ones who rehearsed. We write the incident response plan, define who calls whom, keep the contact list current, and run a tabletop exercise annually so the first time you use the plan is not during a real event.
You probably need this if
- Multi-factor authentication is not enforced on every account, including owners
- Nobody is watching your security alerts outside business hours
- You have never run a phishing simulation on your own staff
- A cyber insurance renewal or client security questionnaire is coming
- You could not say with confidence whether a former employee still has access
- There is no written plan for who does what during an incident
What is included
Deliverables
What you actually get, in writing
Not a vague promise of support. Specific artifacts you can point at, hand to an auditor, or take with you if you ever leave.
Security baseline score
Your environment scored against a modern control set, with the gaps ranked by what an attacker would actually use first.
Incident response plan
Who to call, in what order, with what authority. Contact list kept current and rehearsed annually so nobody is improvising.
Training completion records
Per-person phishing simulation results and training completion, which is exactly the evidence auditors and insurers ask to see.
Vulnerability register
Findings tracked to closure with dates, not a 200-page scanner dump nobody reads.
Access review evidence
Documented proof that only current employees hold access, and that admin rights are limited to people who need them.
Quarterly posture report
What changed, what got detected, what got fixed. Written so a business owner can read it without a translator.
Questions
Questions about this service
Is antivirus not enough anymore?
Traditional antivirus matches known signatures. The attacks that succeed today either use no malicious file at all, because the attacker is logging in legitimately with stolen credentials, or use something novel enough that no signature exists yet. Endpoint detection and response watches behavior instead, which catches the login from an unrecognized device at 3 a.m. and the mass file encryption starting on a workstation.
What is the difference between EDR and MDR?
EDR is the tool. MDR is the tool plus humans watching it. An unmonitored EDR console generates alerts nobody reads, which is genuinely worse than useless because it creates a false sense of coverage. Every plan we sell includes monitoring, because we are not comfortable installing the former and calling it security.
How does phishing-resistant MFA differ from regular MFA?
Text-message and one-time-code MFA can be defeated by a well-built fake login page that relays your code in real time. Phishing-resistant methods, meaning hardware security keys or passkeys and certificate-based device trust, cannot be relayed that way because the credential is cryptographically bound to the real site. We deploy the strongest method your applications support.
What actually happens if we get hit?
Detection triggers isolation of the affected devices, which is often automatic and takes minutes. We then contain the blast radius, force credential resets, and begin scoped recovery from known-clean backups. In parallel we work your notification obligations, because HIPAA and Michigan breach notification law have deadlines that start running at discovery, not at resolution.
Will this satisfy our cyber insurance questionnaire?
It addresses what carriers actually ask about: MFA on all remote access and email, EDR coverage, immutable backups with tested restores, and documented security training. We complete the technical sections with you, because answering yes when the truthful answer is partially is how claims get denied at the worst possible moment.
Want to know where you stand right now?
The assessment documents your environment, scores it against a modern baseline, and hands you a written report you keep either way.
No pressure, no obligation. If we are not the right fit we will tell you and point you somewhere better.
