How will you improve my company’s efficiency?

We do more than just fix your system when it breaks. We dig deeper to identify the cause to prevent ongoing issues that can suck up your time. We also invest heavily in monitoring and managing your system to catch risks as soon as they appear on the horizon rather than reactively trying to fix them. This means less IT problems over time and less IT related work interruptions.

Also, as we improve your cybersecurity and train your staff to become more cyber threat aware, there will be less cause for worry and concern about costly security breaches. You’ll find yourself with more time to focus on just getting your work done.

What’s the difference between a fully managed MSP plan and a co-managed one?

A fully managed plan means that you essentially outsource all of your IT services needs to the provider. This is a good choice if you don’t have any internal IT staff and or anyone to manage them. A fully managed plan gives you the best of both worlds in that you won’t have to manage any IT staff and you’ll get the latest tools and best practices to keep your company secure and operating optimally.

A co-managed plan is best if you already have internal IT staff and need more IT help or structure to meet your security and other technology needs and goals. Essentially, your internal IT staff will work with an MSP to address any issues and to set up a monitoring system that will help identify any risks before they become major hassles. If you’re interested in hearing more about what a co-managed plan will look like for your organization or company, please contact us via the form below.

What regulatory compliance do you support?

In addition, we also have extensive knowledge of each state’s cannabis regulations.

What is the NIST cybersecurity framework?

Founded in 1901, NIST is one of the oldest physical science labs and part of the U.S. Department of Commerce. Many products and services today rely on technology, measurement and standards offered by NIST. NIST has established a cybersecurity framework to help guide organizations to describe their current cybersecurity standing as well as their goals. It helps them identify areas of improvement and ways to assess progress. Lastly, it helps outline communication across an organization regarding any cybersecurity risks. We use this cybersecurity framework to ensure that you’re always meeting these critical cybersecurity standards to best protect your company.
