Managed Security & Compliance
Endpoint, identity, email, cloud, and recovery controls operated by a human-led team around the clock. The program can work with internal IT, an outside provider, or a lean team.
Put a security team behind the controls.
A human-led security operations team reviews alerts from the controls below around the clock. When the evidence points to a real threat, the team investigates and responds.
Devices
Endpoint protection
Laptops, workstations, and servers are monitored for malicious activity. When the evidence points to a threat, the security team investigates and responds.
Identity + security logs
Login monitoring
Cloud sign-ins are checked for signs of account takeover. The included security log system keeps 30 days immediately searchable and one year archived for audits and later review.
Cloud recovery
Backup for Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace
A separate, tamper-resistant backup provides a recoverable copy when data is deleted, encrypted, or changed by mistake.
Phishing + impersonation
Email and fraud protection
Email controls help block phishing, domain impersonation, and business email compromise before a fraudulent message reaches the person being targeted.
Devices + servers
Patching and vulnerability management
Known weaknesses are prioritized by risk, and operating systems and supported applications are updated on a regular schedule.
Secure administration
Microsoft or Google tenant management
Hands-on administration of Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, including users, licences, access policies, and the routine changes that keep the tenant secure.
Configuration drift
Cloud application configuration monitoring
Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace settings are checked for risky changes, excessive permissions, and exposed sharing before they become harder to unwind.
Staff readiness
Security awareness training
Short courses and simulated phishing give staff practice recognizing the messages and requests they are likely to receive.
Managed Compliance Monitoring adds recurring control reviews mapped to the framework you use, remediation tracking, and quarterly reporting. It works with your existing environment and can extend this program.
Local + cloud recovery
Server and workstation backup
Servers, legacy applications, or critical workstations sit on-premises.
Extends the included Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace cloud backup to business-critical servers and workstations. Image-based backups are stored on a local appliance and replicated to encrypted cloud storage, with automated verification and file or full-system recovery.
Longer retention
Extended security logging
A framework or an insurer asks for more than a year of logs.
Adds longer retention and more log sources to the security logging included with login monitoring. This creates a broader record for formal investigations and audits.
Zero trust
Managed private networking
Staff reach office systems remotely, or an aging VPN needs replacing.
A private, encrypted network that connects the staff, offices, and servers in scope. Access is tied to each person's existing Microsoft or Google sign-in, checked against the device they are using, and logged. Covered services can stay off the open internet without relying on a hardware appliance.
Domain protection
Email spoofing protection
Impersonation is a live risk, or a client requires enforced DMARC.
Setup and ongoing management of the email authentication records (DMARC, SPF, DKIM) that make it harder for attackers to spoof your domain, with reporting that shows who is sending mail as you.
Breach data
Leaked credential monitoring
Passwords may have been reused, or accounts have appeared in past breaches.
Checks breach data for exposed staff logins and passwords, so the affected account can be reviewed and the password changed.
Encrypted vault
Managed password manager
Logins live in browsers, spreadsheets, and shared notes.
An encrypted vault for organizational logins, provisioned and removed with staff onboarding and offboarding, with secure sharing for shared accounts and administrative logs showing who can reach what. Managed by Teclara inside the same program, it reduces reliance on browser storage, sticky notes, and spreadsheets.
More business apps
Extended cloud application monitoring
Business apps run beyond Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace.
Extends configuration monitoring beyond Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace to agreed SaaS platforms such as Salesforce, Slack, and GitHub. Connected third-party applications become visible for review, while suspicious or compromised access can be restricted when the integration supports it.
AI data visibility
Ongoing AI usage monitoring
AI tools are already in daily use.
Shows which AI tools staff use and where company data may be going, so risky use can be reviewed and addressed between formal reviews.
Security program extensions
These focused services can be engaged on their own or added when the core program needs a broader security or compliance function.
- Virtual CISO and compliance program
A client or board wants a named security owner.
A dedicated security leader who owns your roadmap and runs the compliance work, so your organization has a named contact ready for audits and client security reviews.
- Security awareness training
Staff are a frequent target, and audits ask for training records.
Ongoing staff training and phishing simulation that reduces human risk and gives you evidence of an active security program. Included in Managed Security & Compliance, and available on its own.
Be ready when clients and insurers ask.
Client reviews and insurance applications increasingly ask for evidence, not a list of tools. This service operates the core controls, keeps recoverable backups, and documents the work so you can show what is in place.
Facing a client security questionnaire or an insurance renewal?
Our Client Security Questionnaire Readiness review helps you answer with evidence.
Rolling out Copilot, Gemini, or other AI tools?
Our Shadow AI Discovery review finds where client work is already going, and Copilot and Gemini Hardening locks down what the assistant can reach before it goes live.
Finally, someone is actually watching.

Is Managed Security & Compliance right for you?
Use this when you need ongoing protection and response around the systems your organization already relies on. It can work with internal IT, an outside provider, or a lean team without dedicated IT staff.

Frequently asked questions.
What does Managed Security & Compliance include?
Endpoint protection, backup for Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, email and fraud protection, patching and vulnerability management, tenant management, login monitoring, cloud application configuration monitoring, and security awareness training. A human-led security operations team reviews alerts around the clock and responds when the evidence points to a threat.
Do I need to hand over my whole IT to use this?
No. The service can work with your internal IT team, an outside IT provider, or a lean team without dedicated IT staff. If you also want day-to-day helpdesk and someone running all of your IT, that is Managed IT, which includes this security program as its foundation.
How does this help with cyber insurance and client security reviews?
The service operates and documents the security controls insurers and clients commonly ask about: monitored endpoints, protected email, recoverable backup, login monitoring, and trained staff. It does not include recurring control reviews mapped to a specific framework, a formal remediation register, or quarterly compliance reporting. Those are provided through Managed Compliance Monitoring.
What platforms do you support?
We focus on Microsoft 365 with Azure and Google Workspace with Google Cloud. If your organization runs something outside that focus, we will say so during discovery.
Is someone actually watching, or is it just tools?
Yes. A human-led security operations team reviews alerts around the clock. The software detects suspicious activity, and people investigate the evidence and respond when it points to a real threat.
