Advanced Security 2025

Secure Password Management (per user)

Delivers a centralized, encrypted platform for managing and storing complex passwords across teams and devices. By eliminating password reuse and automating secure credential generation, it significantly reduces the risk of breaches caused by weak or compromised passwords. Unlike browser-based storage, this solution provides enterprise-grade security, granular access controls, and real-time synchronization—ensuring critical accounts remain protected from unauthorized access and insider threats.

Premium Phishing Filter

Detects and blocks phishing attempts before they reach users, minimizing the risk of credential theft and malware infiltration. Any attempt that makes it through can be reported to the system directly for mass removal from all users’ mailboxes.

DNS Filtering (Filters all outbound requests for malicious sites or categories)

Implements intelligent domain-level filtering to proactively block access to malicious, deceptive, and inappropriate websites before connections are established. This reduces exposure to phishing schemes, ransomware, and other web-based threats, while also enforcing acceptable use policies across the organization.

Email Backup and Continuity (All Mailboxes, OneDrive’s, and Teams)

Automatically backs up emails, OneDrive files, and Teams data to keep your important information safe and easy to recover. Whether it’s accidental deletion, data corruption, or a cyberattack, this solution ensures you can quickly restore what you need without missing a beat. With long-term backup, simple recovery tools, and protection that goes beyond what cloud platforms offer by default, it helps your business stay secure, compliant, and always ready.

Office 365 Log Monitoring (Monitor all events for threats)<br />

Keeps a close watch on Office 365 activity to quickly spot unusual behavior—like unauthorized logins, mailbox rule changes, or unexpected permission updates. By continuously monitoring logs and alerting your team to potential threats, this service helps you respond faster, reduce risk, and stay ahead of security issues before they escalate. It adds an essential layer of visibility that many cloud platforms don’t provide on their own.

Custom Office 365 security hardening

Customizes Office 365 security settings to fit your organization’s needs—blocking risky logins and preventing dangerous email attachments. This strengthens your defenses against account takeovers, data breaches, and other targeted threats.

Network Router Log Monitoring (Monitor all events for threats)

Monitors network traffic from your router in real time to detect unusual activity—like unauthorized access attempts, port scanning, or sudden traffic spikes. Adding a critical layer of visibility to your network, especially in areas often overlooked by traditional security tools.

Security Awareness Training (Managed Monthly Training for all users)

Delivers ongoing security training to keep employees informed about the latest cyber threats—like phishing, social engineering, and ransomware. Through short, easy-to-understand lessons and simulated attack scenarios, it builds a culture of awareness and accountability that helps prevent costly mistakes. Regular training reduces the risk of human error, which remains one of the biggest causes of security incidents.

Email Encryption (The ability to easily encrypt outgoing emails)

Enables users to easily encrypt sensitive emails, ensuring confidential information stays protected—whether it’s shared internally or externally. With built-in tools integrated directly into their inbox, employees can secure messages on demand without disrupting their normal workflow. This helps meet compliance requirements and reduces the risk of data exposure from misdirected or intercepted emails.

Workstation Hard Drive Encryption (Encrypt the local hard drives)

Encrypts the entire hard drive on each workstation to protect sensitive data at rest. Even if a device is lost or stolen, the information remains locked and unreadable to unauthorized users. This adds a critical layer of security for mobile employees and ensures compliance with data protection standards across the organization.

Ad Blocking for Web Browsing

Blocks intrusive ads and trackers in the browser to improve page load times, reduce distractions, and enhance user privacy. By preventing access to malicious ad content and known exploit domains, it also helps protect against drive-by downloads and phishing attempts—making everyday browsing faster, safer, and more secure.
