Managed cybersecurity for Monroeville businesses
Monroeville businesses hire Ford to run their security as a monthly service instead of buying six tools and managing them. We watch the network around the clock, protect every machine, test the backups and train your staff, and we keep the written evidence an insurance carrier asks for. Our team can put a quote together for you.
Why Monroeville businesses call
- A ransomware story from a company down the road hit close to home.
- A HIPAA, PCI or CMMC requirement landed on your desk.
- The current provider patches machines but nobody watches the network.
- Premiums went up and the carrier wants proof of controls before renewal.
- You'd rather set this up before an incident than during one.
If any of those sound familiar, start with the free assessment. It's the same first step for every client.
Monroeville office
500 Garden City Dr #6Monroeville, PA 15146
(800) 633-3673
Monday to Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
After hours, monitored systems still page our on-call team. Existing clients can also open a ticket any time through the help desk request page.
What's included
Managed cybersecurity is the core of what Ford does for Monroeville businesses. A single package covers monitoring and response, security as a service, assessments, network security, email protection and training, backups, dark web monitoring and compliance support. Help desk, network management and hardware are available under the same agreement.
24/7 monitoring and threat response
Every workstation and server in your Monroeville office gets an EDR agent, and the network gets watched around the clock by our security operations center. EDR looks for the behavior of an attack rather than a list of known viruses, so it catches the new stuff. A person reviews every alert. Real threats get contained first and explained second.
Security as a service
Some Monroeville businesses search for this under security as a service, and it's the same thing as managed cybersecurity. One flat monthly fee per user covers the monitoring, EDR, patching, email protection, backups and training, and we run all of it instead of you buying six tools and managing them. When you add staff the number goes up, and when you cut back it goes down.
Security assessments and vulnerability scanning
You can't protect what you haven't counted. The first two weeks are an inventory and a scan, and the result is a ranked list of what to fix and a document you can show a board or a carrier. Then the scans keep running, because the network you had in March isn't the one you have in September.
Network security and firewall management
Your firewall, intrusion detection and prevention, and web filtering all get configured and managed by us. That includes the boring parts nobody does, like reviewing rules that were added for a vendor three years ago and never removed. Patch management runs on a schedule so operating systems and applications stay current.
Email protection and phishing training
Most attacks on a Monroeville business start as an email that looks like it came from the boss or a vendor. Filtering catches the bulk of them. For the rest, your staff get short training sessions and simulated phishing tests through the year, so the message that slips through gets reported. New hires get trained the week they start.
Backup and business continuity
The question isn't whether you have a backup. It's whether you've ever restored from it. We back up servers, workstations and virtual machines, keep a copy off the network, and restore from it on a schedule to prove it works. A written plan says who does what if your Monroeville office is down on a Monday morning. Ransomware becomes a bad day instead of a closed business.
Dark web monitoring and exposure alerts
When staff credentials turn up in a breach, you'd rather hear it from us than from the attacker. Monitoring watches for your domain around the clock. A match gets you an alert, a forced password reset and two-factor turned on if it wasn't already. Monroeville businesses usually add this first, because it's cheap and it finds something the first week.
Compliance support
HIPAA, PCI, CMMC and cyber insurance requirements overlap more than they differ. We map your controls to the framework you're held to, keep the evidence, and handle the technical items on the list. Our managed compliance services page goes deeper.
Who this is for
Companies with roughly 10 to 250 employees that can't afford a full-time security person but can't afford a breach either. It fits medical and dental practices around the two Monroeville hospitals, law and accounting offices, retailers and contractors, and the manufacturers along Route 22.
It works whether you have an internal IT person or not. If you do, we take the security layer and the 2 a.m. alerts off their plate. If you don't, pair this with our Monroeville managed IT services and one team handles all of it.
How it works
Talk
A 20-minute call about what you run, what worries you, and what you're required to comply with.
Assess
We inventory your Monroeville environment and scan it. You get a written report of what's exposed, whether or not you hire us.
Decide
We propose a package, a flat monthly price, and a timeline. No surprise line items later.
Onboard
Agents go on every machine, the firewall gets configured, backups start, and your staff gets their first training session.
Review
Quarterly business reviews go over what we caught, what changed, and what to plan for next.
Packages
Proactive Threat Management and Security Hardening
The full stack. 24/7 monitoring, EDR, patching, email and web protection, two-factor, training, root cause analysis and remediation when something happens.
Essential Network Security and Support
Firewall, monitoring and baseline protection for offices that have an IT person and need the security layer covered.
Dark Web Monitoring
Credential exposure alerts for your domain, with reset and two-factor enforcement when something turns up. Often the first thing a new client adds.
Penetration Testing
Scheduled external and internal tests with a written report. Sold on its own or added to any package.
Prices depend on user count and what you already have in place. The free assessment sets the number, and the number stays flat.
What clients say
"When you call, they answer the phone and you don't have a waiting time. They are an awesome company and have been doing business with them since 2006 in Uniontown, PA."
"Repaired within 1 day of calling to report the issue. Martin was professional and pleasant. He explained the repair and tests completed to make sure the problem was solved."
Monroeville cybersecurity questions we get asked
How much does managed cybersecurity cost for a Monroeville business?
It's priced per user per month and the number depends on how many people you have and what's already in place. A 25-person Monroeville office with a decent firewall pays less than a 25-person office starting from scratch. The assessment is free and it produces a fixed quote. Call (800) 633-3673 or use the form below and we'll get you a number.
Do you have an office in Monroeville?
Yes. 500 Garden City Dr, Suite 6, Monroeville, PA 15146. Technicians work out of it Monday through Friday, 8 to 5.
What happens when your monitoring catches something at 2 a.m. in Monroeville?
Someone on the team looks at the alert. If it's a real threat, we isolate the affected machine, stop the spread, and call your designated contact. You hear from us before you hear from anyone else. In the morning you get a summary of what happened and what we changed.
We already have an IT person in Monroeville. Do we still need this?
Usually yes, and your IT person is often the one who asks. One generalist can't watch alerts around the clock, keep up with patching, run phishing simulations and answer help desk tickets. We take the security layer, they keep everything else, and the two of us talk every quarter.
What does security as a service mean?
It's the same thing as managed cybersecurity. You pay a flat monthly fee per user and we run the monitoring, patching, email protection, backups and training instead of you buying and managing each tool. Some Monroeville clients search for it under that name, so we answer to both.
Do you serve businesses outside Monroeville?
Yes. Murrysville, Export, Plum, Penn Hills, Churchill, Irwin, North Huntingdon, Delmont and Greensburg are all regular stops. The North Shore office covers the rest of Allegheny County.
Looking for day-to-day IT support in Monroeville?
Help desk, network management, cloud and hardware are on our Monroeville managed IT services page. Many clients run both under one agreement.
