What managed cybersecurity services include
24/7 MDR and EDR Monitoring
Huntress and SentinelOne XDR run on every endpoint. A real analyst reviews each alert before it reaches you. No noise to sort through. Odd behaviour gets caught and stopped fast.
Email Security and Phishing Protection
Most breaches start with an email. We block phishing, spoofing, and fake links with DMARC, DKIM, and SPF plus real-time scanning. Email security is part of every engagement.
Identity and Access Management
Multi-factor authentication on every account. Conditional Access for Microsoft 365. KeeperSec for password and secrets management. When someone leaves, their access dies that day. No orphaned accounts sitting open.
Network Security
Fortinet firewalls, network monitoring, and DNS filtering that blocks bad domains before they reach your team. VPN, remote access, and cloud security for Azure and M365. Reviewed at onboarding and again each quarter.
Want to know which of these apply to your environment?
Vulnerability Management and Pen Testing
Regular scanning inside and out. Findings ranked by what an attacker could actually use, then fixed and verified. Maps to CIS Controls v8.1, NIST CSF, and CyberSecure Canada. Standalone or as step one of a managed programme.
Incident Response
When something goes wrong, you need a plan that already exists. Our incident response services spell out who does what, how fast, and what gets escalated. After an incident, we run forensics, find the root cause, and close the gap. See it in action: ransomware recovery case study.
Compliance and Reporting
We map your controls to CIS Controls v8.1, NIST CSF, CyberSecure Canada, SOC 2, PIPEDA, and PHIPA. Monthly security reporting covers what changed, what we fixed, and what’s next. With Bill C-26 adding new rules, being ready now saves you later.
Backup and Disaster Recovery
Immutable and air-gapped backup infrastructure with documented recovery procedures and periodic restore testing. When ransomware hits, the question isn’t if you have backups. It’s how fast they restore and whether the attacker can reach them.
How managed cybersecurity works
According to IBM’s 2025 Cost of a Data Breach Report, the average cost of a data breach in Canada reached CA$6.98 million. For businesses under 500 employees, a single incident can threaten survival. According to CIRA’s 2025 Canadian Cybersecurity Survey, 24% of Canadian organisations were ransomware victims in the past 12 months.
We don’t sell prevention. We run detection and response. Tools catch patterns. People make the call.

What managed cybersecurity costs
For a typical Canadian business with 25 to 100 users, managed cybersecurity services range from $30 to $80 per user per month on top of managed IT. Total per-user costs including IT and security typically fall in the $180 to $200+ range. What you pay depends on team size, setup complexity, and compliance needs.
“I’ve done post-incident reviews for six companies this year alone where the breach started with a compromised vendor credential. Not a zero-day, not a sophisticated attack. A vendor whose password hadn’t been rotated in three years. That’s what we fix first.”
Mike Pearlstein, CISSP, CEO of Fusion Computing
