Security that’s attainable regardless of size

Cybersecurity for small businesses in Virginia

Security risk assessment

A security risk assessment identifies weaknesses in your current security. Our security audit includes an interview, phishing test, and network vulnerability scan. You receive a report of our findings. We can also provide a Cyber Insurance Assessment that shows this information in the context of insurer questions and requirements.

Fractional Chief Technology Officer

Get expert guidance on technology solutions that enhance security while meeting your budget and functional needs. The goal is to integrate security into a streamlined process that makes your business more resilient.

Simple and secure sign-in

Technologies like a password manager, multi-factor authentication, and single sign-on make it easier than ever to sign-in to your work apps in a simple and secure way.

Network security

Take advantage of cloud-based DNS security to filter out malicious web traffic before it enters your network. We can implement Cisco Umbrella to protect you against ransomware, botnets, and other targeted attacks. This added layer of security protects against modern threats that your firewall alone cannot.

Access management

Many business-critical applications assume that your users have admin rights, but admin rights are bad for cybersecurity. Let us set up AutoElevate, a privileged access management solution that allows trusted applications, installers, and updaters to run as admin. Its auditing and reporting tools also let you keep a close eye on your systems.

Incident response and recovery

Develop an incident response plan that identifies your team, their roles, and the processes you’ll follow. We’d love to help you put this in place before something happens, but we can also help you clean up after the fact. A good backup and disaster recovery plan is the best way to recover from a ransomware attack without paying a ransom. We’ll help you create a backup and test it.

You can’t afford to skip security

Your office manager knows how to add a user to your network or email system. But do they know how to use the security dashboard, limit user access based on job roles, and enable multi-factor authentication?

If you’re like one of the hundreds of Virginia businesses that have come to us over the past 30 years, it’s more likely that your users have broad rights that leave your data and systems exposed. One compromised account can bring down your whole network, result in data breach or loss, and cause financial harm to you and your clients.

Less than 20% of SMBs believe their current cybersecurity posture will protect them.

Weak security has real consequences

One small Virginia-based company came to us for help securing their network after a breach. What happened? Hackers gained access to their email system and used it to send out fraudulent invoices. The company’s clients paid false invoices to the tune of almost $150,000. Insurance did not cover the losses.

Another small Virginia company came to us after they became a victim of ransomware and extortion. Hackers acquired employee data and posted salaries online.

‌60% of small businesses close within 6 months of a cyberattack.

Are cybersecurity services worth it to a small business?

You must decide if cybersecurity services are worth it to you. We recommend that you compare the cost of such services after calculating the cost of downtime to your business. While you might think that you’re unlikely to be targeted, keep in mind that half of all cyberattacks target small businesses (Inc.com) and less than 20% of SMBs believe their current cybersecurity posture will protect them (CNBC). Sixty percent of small businesses close within 6 months of a cyberattack (Inc.com). Cybersecurity services can save you headaches, money, client relationships, and your business.

Can I create my own small business cybersecurity plan?

To develop a good cybersecurity plan, management, HR, and IT need to work together. This ensures that business processes, technical capabilities, and onboarding/offboarding are all considered during creation of the plan. One part of a good cybersecurity plan is an Incident Response Plan. You can download our free IRP worksheet here to get an idea of what’s involved.
