Why managed services?

Managing and keeping internal IT operations running smoothly can be time consuming and complicated. With internal IT operations stretched thin, vulnerabilities often go undetected, patches are missed, and your business-critical data could be at risk. By using The Apprentice Store to care for your computer system, we can focus on proactively protecting your business and handling your IT needs so you can focus on your business.

Why cyber protection?

As cybercriminals become more sophisticated in their attacks, it’s getting harder for businesses to mitigate them. All it takes is one unpatched system, malicious URL, or malicious file for cybercriminals to gain access to your network, encrypt files, and deploy ransomware.

While backups are still essential for restoring your data, they’re not enough to protect your business alone. You need to adopt a comprehensive cyber protection approach to help mitigate the risks associated with today’s modern threats.

Assessment

The first step to securing your business is knowing where your business is vulnerable. Our Security Assessment Service can help quantify your exposure, so we can define the actions we need to take to successfully protect you.

Approach to cyber security

To help keep your business safe, our protection approach aligns with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) framework. Our approach helps us protect your business using the industry’s top guidelines and compliance standards to safeguard you from today’s threats. The NIST framework consists of five principles: identify, protect, detect, respond, and recover. Here’s how our cybersecurity approach covers all five key areas:

  • Identify vulnerabilities in your IT infrastructure and perform auto-discovery of devices in your network
  • Protect with best practices in security, management, software updates, and more
  • Detect threats and provide strong defenses against malware/ransomware
  • Respond using Cyber Protection Operations Center alerts and support in the event of a cyberattack
  • Recover. In a data loss scenario, we can quickly remediate and restore lost data and systems remotely to full operations with little to no downtime and preform a full forensic investigation
