What's included
Google-certified security for Whatcom County businesses
Small and mid-size businesses aren't too small to be attacked — they're targeted precisely because they're under-defended. Attacks are automated and indiscriminate: tools scan the whole internet for the same unpatched software, reused passwords, and missing multi-factor authentication, and a local business with no dedicated security is an easier hit than a hardened enterprise.
The good news is that most breaches exploit basic gaps, not sophisticated hacks. Multi-factor authentication, tested offline backups, current patches, endpoint protection, and a team trained to spot phishing close the doors attackers actually use. We deliver that as a layered, maintained defense — audits that find the real gaps, hardening that closes them, and monitoring that catches trouble early.
And when minutes matter, you have a local partner on call: emergency incident response and ransomware recovery from a Whatcom County studio, not a ticket queue three time zones away. You get Google-certified security experience, explained in plain English, from someone who treats your downtime like their own.
Cybersecurity pricing
Security work is quoted to your environment and risk — most engagements start with an audit, then close the gaps it finds. As a rough guide:
A risk assessment — access and backup review, patch and exposure check, and a prioritized, plain-English report.
The audit plus fixing the gaps: MFA, patching, endpoint protection, and tested offline backups.
Continuous monitoring and managed security, typically folded into a monthly IT plan.
Hourly work is billed at $55/hr, and emergency / after-hours incident response — including ransomware recovery — at $125/hr. Ongoing monitoring can be bundled into a managed IT plan from $299/mo.
A few things shape where your project lands:
- Number of endpoints, users, and accounts to cover
- Systems and network complexity, and number of locations
- Compliance requirements (PCI-DSS, HIPAA, and similar)
- Whether it's proactive hardening or active incident response
