Managed Security & Compliance
A complete security operation for professional firms, backed by a 24/7 team that watches your endpoints, cloud, and email and responds when something looks wrong. No full IT department required.
A 24/7 security team watches your business.
A human-led security operations team monitors everything below and acts the moment a real threat appears. The tools detect. People investigate and respond.
EDR/MDR
Laptop and device protection
Every device watched for threats around the clock. When something looks wrong, the security team investigates and responds.
ITDR · SIEM included
Login monitoring
Cloud sign-ins watched for account takeover, so an unusual login gets caught before it becomes a breach. Includes SIEM log retention at no extra cost, 30 days hot for active investigation and a year cold for audits and after-the-fact review.
Immutable
Backup for Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace
Recoverable, immutable backup so a mistake or an attack does not become permanent data loss.
BEC
Email and fraud protection
Protection against phishing, impersonation, and business email compromise, the attacks that cost firms the most.
Endpoints + Servers
Patching and vulnerability management
Systems kept current and known weaknesses closed before they get exploited.
CSPM
Microsoft or Google tenant management
Hands-on administration of your Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace: user and license management, access policies, and the day-to-day changes that keep the tenant running securely.
SSPM
SaaS configuration monitoring
Continuous monitoring of how your Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace are configured, flagging risky settings, over-permissioned accounts, and exposed sharing as they drift, before they turn into an incident.
SAT
Security awareness training
Ongoing training with custom courses and simulated phishing to test the team, so the people most likely to be targeted have already seen the lure.
BCDR extension
Server and workstation backup
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.
Best for firms with on-premises servers, legacy applications, or critical workstations that need protection beyond cloud email and files.
Log retention
Premium SIEM
Extends the SIEM retention included with login monitoring, adding longer hold times and broader log sources across your full environment for a complete record built to satisfy formal investigations and audits.
For longer retention than the included year, a strict compliance framework, or an insurer that asks for more than the standard logs.
Zero trust
Managed private networking
A private, encrypted network that connects your staff, offices, and servers directly, wherever they are. Access is tied to each person's existing Microsoft or Google sign-in and checked against the device they are using, with every connection logged. No hardware appliance, and nothing exposed to the open internet.
Best for remote or hybrid teams reaching office systems, firms retiring an aging VPN, or on-premises systems your staff need to reach securely from anywhere, including a private AI deployment.
DMARC
Email spoofing protection
Setup and ongoing management of the email authentication records (DMARC, SPF, DKIM) that stop attackers from spoofing your domain, with reporting that shows who is sending mail as you.
Key when impersonation or invoice fraud is a concern, or a client or platform requires enforced DMARC before they will accept your email.
Dark Web
Leaked credential monitoring
Monitoring of dark web and breach data for your staff logins and passwords, so an exposed credential gets caught and reset before an attacker uses it to get in.
Recommended if your team reuses passwords, you have had accounts exposed in past breaches, or you want early warning when a login shows up where it should not.
Encrypted vault
Managed password manager
An encrypted vault for the firm's logins, provisioned and removed with staff onboarding and offboarding, with secure sharing for shared accounts and admin audit logging over who can reach what. Managed by Teclara inside the same program, so credentials stop living in browsers, sticky notes, and spreadsheets.
Recommended when staff reuse or share passwords, you need to cut off access cleanly when someone leaves, or a client or insurer review asks how credentials are stored and controlled.
SSPM Premium
Extended SaaS posture monitoring
Extends configuration monitoring beyond Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace to the rest of your SaaS stack, like Salesforce, Slack, and GitHub. It also surfaces every third-party app connected to your accounts, watches for ones behaving badly, and can cut off a compromised app's access automatically.
Suited to firms that rely on business apps beyond Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, or want oversight of the third-party apps and integrations connected to their accounts.
Shadow AI
Ongoing AI usage monitoring
Continuous watch on the AI tools your team uses and the data flowing into them, so client work that lands in a public assistant or a newly connected AI app gets caught and acted on instead of going unnoticed. Keeps pace with the tools staff adopt between reviews.
Best once AI tools are in regular use across the firm, or after a Shadow AI review where you want the gains held in place rather than drifting back.
Standalone Services
Flexible security and compliance solutions delivered as individual services or integrated into a complete Managed Security & Compliance program.
- Virtual CISO and compliance program
A dedicated security leader who owns your roadmap and runs the compliance work, so your firm has a named contact ready for audits and client security reviews.
Best when a client or board wants a named security owner, or you are working toward a formal certification.
- Security awareness training
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.
Valuable when your people are a frequent target, or you need measurable training records for compliance.
Your clients are asking.
Your insurer is next.
Accounting, legal, and consulting firms hold data attackers want, and clients and insurers increasingly ask for proof that it is protected. This service covers the controls those reviews look for, keeps recoverable backups for the day something goes wrong, and puts a human team behind the alerts.
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.

Frequently asked questions.
What does Managed Security & Compliance include?
Endpoint protection on every laptop and device, backup for Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, email and fraud protection, patching and vulnerability management, Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace tenant management, login monitoring across cloud accounts, SaaS configuration monitoring across your cloud apps, and security awareness training. A 24/7 human-led security operations team monitors all of it and responds when something looks wrong.
Do I need to hand over my whole IT to use this?
No. This service secures your business without replacing your IT. Most professional firms run it without a full IT department. If you also want day-to-day helpdesk and someone running all of your IT, that is available as Managed IT, which is built on this same program.
How does this help with cyber insurance and client security reviews?
The service is built around the controls insurers and clients ask about: monitored endpoints, protected email, recoverable backup, login monitoring, and trained staff. When a client questionnaire or insurance renewal asks for evidence, you have it in place and can point to it.
What platforms do you support?
We focus on Microsoft 365 with Azure and Google Workspace with GCP. If your firm runs something outside that focus, we will say so during discovery.
Is someone actually watching, or is it just tools?
A 24/7 human-led security operations team watches the tools and steps in when something looks wrong. The software detects, and people investigate and respond. That human layer is the difference between an alert nobody reads and a threat that gets handled.
