MANAGED CYBERSECURITY SERVICES · CHICAGOLAND
Protection on every computer, a 24/7 security operations center behind it, and the proof that it is running whenever you or your insurer ask. Security is never an add-on on our Managed IT plans.
IS THIS YOU?
These are the moments that bring companies to us. Each one is a question about security that somebody has to answer with evidence.
The carrier now asks about multi-factor sign-in, endpoint detection, tested backups and staff training, and wants a yes it can rely on. A wrong answer can void the policy you are paying for.
A spreadsheet of security questions arrives from purchasing, with a deadline. Nobody in the office knows how to answer half of it, and the contract depends on it.
Antivirus is installed, backups are set up, alerts go to an inbox. Installing a tool is not managing it, and nobody can say for sure that every computer is covered today.
An invoice with new bank details, a sign-in page that looked right, a request from the owner that was not from the owner. Most breaches at companies your size start in an inbox.
WHAT IS INCLUDED
Every layer below is included in every Managed IT plan. On Co-Managed IT you can hand us the security piece on its own.
Every managed computer protected, and watched by analysts who can act on what they see.
Security specialists watching day and night, so an attack at 2 AM does not wait until morning.
Phishing, impersonation and fake invoices stopped before they reach the inbox.
The sign-in is where most attacks start, so we lock it down and keep it that way.
Your mail and files in Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, backed up apart from the platform itself.
People and software are the two things attackers count on being out of date.
PROOF IT IS RUNNING
You should not have to take a provider's word for it. In assessments we keep finding companies paying for security that was never installed, or that stopped reporting months ago.
A list of every managed computer, the protection on it, when it last checked in and its patch status. A missing layer shows up as a gap.
Patch and backup status in your regular reports, and security coverage reviewed at every business review.
On any call we can share a screen and show a computer's protection status in our consoles, right then.
Backup restores are tested and documented, and phishing simulation results are reported to you.
IF SOMETHING HAPPENS
Our security operations center can isolate a compromised computer from the network immediately, without waiting for business hours. Here is the line between included and billed.
| Billed separately | Included in your plan |
|---|---|
| Extended forensic investigation by a specialist firm | Detection, alerting and triage, 24/7 |
| Legal and regulatory notification work | Isolating the affected computers |
| Large-scale rebuild or recovery projects | Investigating what happened and what was touched |
| Work on systems we do not manage | Fixing the systems we manage, telling you without delay, and working with your insurer and counsel |
Think you have been hacked and you are not a client? Call (847) 499-1500 and say it is urgent. Take the computer off the network, do not wipe it, and call your insurer's breach line first if you have one.
We are not a compliance auditor and we do not pretend to be one. We run the technical controls behind HIPAA, the FTC Safeguards Rule and your customers' questionnaires, and hand you the evidence when someone asks.
We complete the technical sections of your cyber insurance application and attest only to controls we actually run. When a carrier makes a control a condition of coverage, it becomes our deadline, not yours. Included, not billed.
GETTING STARTED
Nothing gets quoted off a guess. You can stop after any step, and what we find is yours to keep.
15-minute call
What you have today, what your insurer or customers are asking for, and whether we are a fit.
Assessment
An engineer reviews sign-ins, admin accounts, email security, backups and patching, remotely or on-site.
Findings presentation
Every gap ranked by risk, with a 30/60/90-day plan to close it.
Proposal
A plan and a price based on what we actually saw.
Keep your IT person and hand us the piece most in-house teams cannot staff around the clock: 24/7 security monitoring and response.
We run all of it: help desk, 24/7 monitoring, cybersecurity and backups, with three plans from $130 per user per month.

FAQ
Included in every plan. Endpoint protection, managed detection and response with a 24/7 security operations center, email security, cloud backup, multi-factor sign-in, admin access control, training and patching are never sold as upgrades. The only piece a client may opt out of is security awareness training, and only when they carry no cyber insurance.
Our security operations center can isolate a compromised computer from the network right away, at any hour. Detection, isolation, investigation, fixing the systems we manage, telling you without delay and working with your insurer and counsel are included. Extended forensics by a specialist firm, legal notification work and large rebuilds are billed separately.
Yes. Call (847) 499-1500 and say it is urgent. Take the affected computer off the network, do not wipe it, and if you have cyber insurance call your carrier's breach line first, because many policies require their own response team.
Yes, and it is included. We complete the technical sections and attest only to controls we actually run. When a carrier makes a control a condition of coverage, it becomes our deadline to put in place and report on.
We are not an auditor. We run the technical controls those frameworks ask about, such as access control, multi-factor sign-in, patch history and tested backups, and hand you the evidence. We answer the technical sections of customer questionnaires directly, and we sign Business Associate Agreements with healthcare clients.
24/7 security monitoring is included in every plan and watches for active threats in real time. Scheduled vulnerability scanning is an add-on for clients who need it for compliance, insurance or industry rules, and the findings come with a priority and a recommendation.
Ask us. We can produce a list of every managed computer with its protection, last check-in and patch status, show it live on a call, and report backup and phishing test results. Our assessment compares what is running against what you are paying for.
Not today. We carry Technology Errors and Omissions and Cyber Liability insurance, document the controls in your environment on request, and publish our Service Level Agreement, Terms and Privacy Policy.
A short call to see what you have and what you are being asked for. If we are a fit, the next step is an assessment, not a sales pitch.
Tell us a little about your business and we will get you booked in.
