Security and Risk Management
Strong security and clear communication go hand in hand. We help you protect what matters, without slowing people down.
Our approach blends modern controls, simple processes, and practical training so your team can work with confidence.
Our principles
- Security is part of everyday work—not a bolt-on.
- Most risk starts with identity (people & access), not just firewalls.
- Threats come from outside and inside, and can be accidental or deliberate.
- Tools don’t “solve” security; habits and governance do.
- The landscape changes—so we measure, learn, and improve.
What we deliver
Assess & Plan
- Security health check and prioritized roadmap
- Policy & gap reviews mapped to PIPEDA/FOIP and, when needed, HIPAA
Protect (Prevent)
- Zero Trust access: MFA, least-privilege, role-based access (Microsoft 365/Entra ID)
- Device hardening & patching; secure configurations for cloud and on-prem
- Email/web protection and safe file-sharing patterns
Detect (Know fast)
- Endpoint protection (EDR/XDR) and unified logging/SIEM
- Alert tuning so signals are actionable (not noisy)
Respond & Recover
- Incident response runbooks and tabletop exercises
- Backup & disaster recovery with immutability and tested RPO/RTO
Educate
- Practical awareness training and phishing drills tailored to your team
Technologies we work with (selected)
- Firewalls/VPN, secure remote access, network segmentation
- Microsoft 365 & Entra ID (MFA, Conditional Access, DLP)
- EDR/XDR, email security, vulnerability scanning & patch orchestration
- Backup/DR platforms (with immutability), logging/SIEM
Healthcare ready: We design on HIPAA-eligible services and support BAAs where applicable, with encryption in transit/at rest, audit trails, “minimum necessary” data use, and documented breach procedures, while also aligning to Canadian privacy rules.
A friendlier way to start
- Option A: Security Health Check (2–3 weeks) – quick wins, clear priorities
- Option B: Incident-Readiness Tune-up – test runbooks, refine roles, close gaps
