Why small and mid-sized firms are targeted

Attackers go after firms that hold valuable data but don't have a dedicated security team. The most common threats we see are phishing emails, business email compromise and wire-transfer fraud, stolen passwords and ransomware. Most of these can be stopped or contained with the right controls in place.

What our cybersecurity services include

Endpoint protection and monitoring on workstations, laptops and servers.
Email security to filter phishing, malicious attachments and impersonation attempts.
Multi-factor authentication and identity protection for Microsoft 365 and key business apps.
Patch and vulnerability management so known weaknesses get fixed.
Firewall and network security for your office and remote staff.
Backup and recovery so a ransomware attack or failure doesn't mean lost data.
Security awareness training so your team recognizes phishing and fraud.
Policies and risk reviews, including written information security plans (WISP) through our compliance package and incident response planning.

Security that supports your compliance obligations

Many of our clients have rules to follow. Healthcare practices must protect patient data under the HIPAA Security Rule. Tax and accounting firms fall under the FTC Safeguards Rule and IRS expectations for a written information security plan. Florida businesses have breach notification duties under the Florida Information Protection Act. We help you put technical safeguards and documentation in place that support those requirements. See our pages for CPA firms, law firms and healthcare practices.

Start with a security review

We start by looking at where you're exposed today: accounts without MFA, unpatched systems, backups that haven't been tested and email that isn't filtered. You get a clear, prioritized list of what to fix first. Book a free strategy call to get started.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my firm too small to be a target?

No. Small and mid-sized firms are frequent targets because they hold valuable data and often have fewer protections than large companies. Most attacks are automated and opportunistic.

Do we really need multi-factor authentication?

Yes. MFA is one of the most effective protections against stolen passwords and account takeover, and it's increasingly expected by cyber insurers and regulators.

What should we do if we think we've been hacked?

Disconnect affected devices from the network, don't pay any ransom demands, and contact your IT provider right away. Fast response limits damage. Call us at 1-888-950-8984.

Can you help us write a security plan?

Yes. Our compliance package includes a written information security plan (WISP), documented to match how your systems are actually set up and kept current as they change.
