Cybersecurity and compliance

Cybersecurity and compliance for businesses across the US.

Many security breaches start with a phishing email or a stolen password, and some end in ransomware. We filter suspicious mail, lock down devices, test backups and provide compliance integration for HIPAA, PCI DSS, SOC 2, CMMC and more.

What cybersecurity looks like for a growing business.

A business without an internal security department can still be protected when the fundamentals are in place and reviewed regularly.

What it is

We filter email for phishing and invoice fraud, install endpoint detection and response on every managed computer, and turn on multi-factor authentication wherever it matters. Verizon's Data Breach Investigations Report names phishing, stolen passwords and ransomware among the most frequent causes of a breach. Where client files and privileged communications are the thing at risk, the same setup becomes cybersecurity and compliance for law firms.

What you get

Staff receive fewer phishing and fraud attempts, and a lost device can be locked or wiped. A written incident response plan assigns responsibilities, and compliance documentation is ready when an auditor, insurer or client requests it.

The cost of unmanaged security

Ransomware locks the server, a bookkeeper wires money to a fake vendor, or a HIPAA complaint arrives with no paperwork to answer it. Without a written plan, recovery decisions get made in the middle of the incident, when the work is harder and more disruptive.

What's included

What the protection covers.

We apply these protections to every system we manage.

How it works

The order we work in.

  1. 01

    Security review

    We check email settings, device protection, backups, passwords, and who has access to what. You get a written list of gaps, ranked by risk.

  2. 02

    Close the gaps

    We work down the ranked list as a short project: turning on filtering and multi-factor authentication, protecting and encrypting devices, getting backups running and tested, and cleaning up admin accounts.

  3. 03

    Keep it that way

    We keep monitoring, run monthly checks, test restores on a schedule, and review everything periodically. Compliance documentation stays current, so it is ready before an audit.

EDR, email, backups, compliance and incidents.

Antivirus or EDR?

Endpoint detection and response. Traditional antivirus matches known signatures. EDR watches behavior, alerts on signs such as unexpected file encryption, and can isolate a device from the network automatically.

How is email protected?

Layered filtering in front of Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, SPF, DKIM, and DMARC to help receiving systems identify spoofed mail, external-sender banners, and link rewriting that checks a link when a user clicks it. Google's sender guidelines describe those same records as protection against spoofing and phishing.

What does the backup design look like?

Local backups for on-site restores plus an off-site copy kept separate from production network access. Microsoft 365 mailboxes and files are backed up separately from the service's built-in retention. We run restore tests on a schedule and record the results.

Which compliance frameworks do you support?

HIPAA for medical and dental practices, PCI DSS for anyone taking cards, SOC 2 readiness for service companies, and the controls behind CMMC for defense subcontractors. We handle the technical side and help you keep the policies and training records auditors ask for, which is most of what medical and dental practices come to us for.

Do you do assessments and penetration tests?

We run vulnerability scans on a regular schedule and recommend an annual penetration test, or one after major changes to your network. We coordinate the test and fix what it finds.

What happens if we get hit anyway?

We follow the written incident plan. We isolate the affected machines, stop the spread, restore from backups, find out how the attacker got in, and close that gap. We also document the timeline, which your insurer will ask for and, for regulated businesses, the notification rules require.

We're a general contractor and IT was never something we thought about until ransomware locked up all our project files. 850 IT Services got us back up and running, then put systems in place so it wouldn't happen again.

Frequently asked questions

Is a business like ours really a target?

Yes. Many attacks are automated and target any business that uses email and sends payments. Phishing, stolen passwords and fake invoices work the same against a 40-person firm as against a large enterprise.

Do I need this if I already have antivirus?

Antivirus is one layer. Many attacks start with email or a reused password, which antivirus does not touch.

Can you help with our cyber insurance questionnaire?

Yes. Insurers now ask for multi-factor authentication, EDR, tested backups, and staff training. We put those in place and answer the questionnaire with you.

Does this require managed IT too?

Security can be part of a managed IT plan, and it is available on its own.
