Managed security · 21 layers and counting

Security that’s measured, not guessed.

21 layers of cybersecurity and counting, each one chosen to close a gap in a national framework. We measure where you stand, close the gaps that matter most, and watch for trouble so you see it before it costs you.

Who it’s for

Businesses that can’t afford downtime

If a ransomware attack would stop you from operating, this is for you.

Anyone with an insurance renewal

Carriers ask about MFA, endpoint protection and backups. We help you say yes.

Teams handling sensitive data

Client files, health records, payment data or defense information.

Every layer, mapped to NIST CSF

Each layer closes a gap in a national framework. Grouped here by the six NIST CSF 2.0 functions.

Govern

  • IT security policy management
  • Third-party vendor management
  • Change management
  • Yearly network security audit
  • Tabletop incident drills

Identify

  • Complete hardware & software asset inventory, always up to date
  • Continuous vulnerability scanning
  • Penetration testing

Protect

  • MFA everywhere
  • Privilege auto-elevation
  • Password manager
  • Self-service password reset
  • User verification
  • OS & third-party patching
  • Email security & spam filtering
  • DMARC monitoring
  • Browser security
  • Security awareness training
  • Simulated phishing
  • Email encryption
  • Endpoint encryption
  • Private cloud file sync & share

Detect

  • EDR (endpoint detection & response)
  • ITDR for Microsoft 365
  • Threat hunting
  • SIEM

Respond

  • ITDR for Microsoft 365
  • MDR (managed detection & response)
  • Incident response planning

Recover

  • Bit-level server backups
  • Microsoft 365 backup

How it works

  1. Assess

    Score your environment against the CIS Controls and NIST CSF.

  2. Prioritize

    A plain-English list of gaps, ranked by risk and cost.

  3. Protect

    Deploy the layers you’re missing and harden what you have.

  4. Detect & respond

    Ongoing monitoring, with a plan for what happens when something fires.

  5. Re-measure

    Rescore regularly so you can see resiliency improve.

Before, during and after

If your systems were ransomed tomorrow, could you see what happened before, during and after the attack? That visibility is what we build. We make the invisible, visible.

Common questions

Why 21 layers?

No single tool stops every attack. Each layer covers a different way in, mapped to the CIS Controls and NIST CSF, so if one is bypassed the next one catches it. We add layers as threats change.

Isn’t antivirus enough?

Not anymore. Most attacks today use stolen logins and legitimate tools, so you need identity protection, monitoring and tested backups too.

Will this satisfy my cyber insurance questionnaire?

It covers the controls carriers ask about most, and we help you answer the questionnaire accurately.
