What's Included With Cybersecurity
Security That Fits a Small Business
You don’t need a security department. You need the right handful of protections, set up properly and watched by someone who knows what they’re looking at.
The Essentials We Start With
- Multi-factor authentication on email, Microsoft 365 and remote access
- Endpoint protection with detection and response on every computer
- Email security to filter phishing and impersonation
- Backups that are tested and kept separate from your network
- Patching of computers, servers and network equipment
- Security awareness training so your team spots scams
These cover the attacks we see most often against small businesses in West Palm Beach: fake invoices, stolen Microsoft 365 passwords and ransomware.
Plain English, No Scare Tactics
We explain your risks clearly and recommend what fits your budget. Many businesses are surprised how much they can improve in the first month just by closing basic gaps.
Security is included in our managed IT service, so it is maintained every day rather than set up once and forgotten. See our security services.
The Technical Side
How the essentials are set up behind the scenes:
- MFA enforced through Microsoft 365 security defaults or conditional access, with app-based approval
- EDR on every computer, monitored by a 24/7 SOC
- Email filtering for phishing, malicious attachments and look-alike domains, with SPF, DKIM and DMARC configured
- Backups of Microsoft 365 and key files with an off-network copy
- Patching automated for Windows, macOS and common applications
- Training with short lessons and simulated phishing emails

Cyber Security for Small Business in West Palm Beach: Common Questions
Are small businesses really targets?
Yes. Attackers often target small businesses because they expect weaker defenses. Phishing, business email compromise and ransomware hit companies of every size.
Where should a small business start?
Multi-factor authentication on email and remote access, endpoint protection on every device, reliable backups and staff training cover the most common attacks.
How much does small business cybersecurity cost?
It depends on your team size and requirements. Most clients pay a flat monthly rate per user that includes security alongside IT support. We provide a clear quote after a free consultation.
We don't have an IT person. Can you be our security team?
Yes. Most of our small business clients have no internal IT staff. We act as their IT and security team.
What is the most common attack on small businesses?
Phishing that leads to stolen email passwords and fake invoice or payment-change requests is among the most common. MFA, email filtering and a habit of verifying payment changes by phone stop much of it.
Do we need cybersecurity if everything is in the cloud?
Yes. Cloud services protect their platforms, while your accounts, devices and data remain your responsibility. Most attacks on cloud users start with a stolen password or an unprotected laptop.
