Firewall & Network Protection

We recommend the implementation of a proven managed firewall service protecting your data from unauthorized access, and preventing malware, viruses, and other malicious software from entering the network. They can also provide secure VPN access to remote workers and optimise bandwidth for critical business applications. Proper Wi-Fi security is critical and seamless if implemented correctly.

Endpoint Protection

We implement a multi layered protection model to your devices that includes

  • Traditional signature based Anti-Virus
  • Ransomware Protection engine
  • AI driven EDR (Endpoint detection & response) uses feedback from above and more to take direct action and for instance, isolate a host from the network immediately in response to a threat

User Account Protection

We have the following tools at our disposal to prevent user manipulation through social engineering or stolen credentials

  • UAC – User account control
  • MFA – multi factor authentication
  • RBAC – role-based access control
  • Dark web monitoring for stolen credentials
  • User security awareness training
  • Simulated phishing attacks

Backups

Data backups are essential for protecting against data loss, ensuring business continuity, and maintaining operational resilience. They act as a safety net by preserving critical information in case of accidental deletion, hardware failure, cyberattacks, or natural disasters. By regularly backing up data, businesses can quickly restore their systems and minimize downtime, preventing significant financial and reputational damage.

Disaster Recovery / Business Continuity Planning

Disaster Recovery Planning (DRP) and Business Continuity Planning (BCP) are essential because they ensure that an organization can quickly recover and continue operations after an unexpected disruption. These plans safeguard critical data, minimize downtime, and reduce the financial impact of disasters by providing a structured response to various scenarios, from cyberattacks to natural disasters.

Updates & Patching

These are critical for businesses because they address security vulnerabilities, improve system performance, and ensure compliance with industry standards. Regular updates and patches close security gaps that cybercriminals exploit, protecting sensitive data and reducing the risk of breaches. They also enhance the functionality and stability of software, preventing crashes and disruptions that can affect productivity.

Managed SOC

We can offer a Managed Detection & Response (MDR) service run by a 3rd party Security Operations Centre (SOC) that enhances cybersecurity by providing 24/7 threat monitoring, rapid response to incidents, and integration with existing security tools. Its platform supports endpoint, network, and cloud security, helping businesses detect and mitigate advanced threats efficiently. Leveraging this, organisations can reduce cybersecurity costs and ensure continuous protection against cyber threats.

Pen Testing

(Penetration Testing)

Automated network penetration testing is now affordable, accurate, and efficient. It enables businesses to conduct frequent, real-time security assessments with minimal human error, ensuring continuous protection against cyber threats. By providing detailed reports and actionable insights, it helps organizations identify and remediate vulnerabilities promptly, enhancing their overall security posture and compliance with industry standards.

Essential 8

The Essential Eight is a cybersecurity framework developed by the Australian Cyber Security Centre (ACSC) to help organizations protect against common cyber threats. It consists of eight key mitigation strategies.  Implementing these strategies creates a robust defense, making it significantly harder for adversaries to compromise systems.

Zero Trust Architecture

ZTA is a security model that assumes no user or device, inside or outside the network, can be trusted by default. It requires strict verification for everyone and everything attempting to access resources within the network. Zero Trust relies on principles like continuous monitoring, least privilege access, and micro-segmentation to ensure that only authenticated and authorized users can access specific resources, providing a more robust defence against cyber threats.
