# Managed Security, Backups & Compliance for Businesses

Small businesses are targets because attackers expect weak defenses. We put the proven basics in place and keep them there: multi-factor sign-in, a company password manager, threat protection on every device, email filtering, backups we test by restoring and a plan for what happens if something goes wrong. We also help with the security questionnaires your cyber insurer and customers send.

## Questions

### Will this make us compliant?

We put the technical safeguards in place and help with the paperwork, which covers much of what HIPAA, PCI DSS, cyber insurers and customers ask for. Formal certifications and audits come from an independent assessor, and we prepare you for them.

### Do you monitor around the clock?

The protection on your devices blocks known threats automatically at any hour, and alerts are reviewed during business hours. If you need a 24/7 security operations center, we can set one up through a specialist provider and manage it for you.

### What happens if we’re hacked anyway?

Tell us right away. We contain the problem, lock down accounts, restore from backups and help you work out who needs to be told. Tested backups and a written plan are what turn a disaster into a bad day.

### Is this included in every plan?

Yes. It’s part of every managed IT plan, from Essentials at $750 a month. Larger plans add more build time, priority and planning.

### Can we hire you for just this?

Yes. Each piece is also available as a one-time project; see the related services on this page. Many businesses start with one project and move to a plan once they see how we work.
