Services · Included with Managed IT

Business cybersecurity that protects more than the antivirus icon

Devices, identities, email and people are attacked in different ways. We manage the protection around all four as part of the same Managed IT relationship.

Business Cybersecurity is available only as part of Canopytech Managed IT Services.

One managed system

Security works better when the team responding can also fix the cause

An alert is useful only if somebody can act on the device, account or configuration behind it. That is why we do not sell cybersecurity as a detached collection of products. It is built into how we manage your IT.

The same relationship covers Microsoft 365 configuration, endpoints, patching, email and user access. When a vulnerability is found or an account looks compromised, the work can move from detection to remediation without being handed between providers.

What we protect

Seven layers, managed together

Each layer covers a different route into the business. Together they reduce exposure, improve visibility and create practical response options.

01

MDR and EDR

Managed detection and response and endpoint detection and response look for malicious behaviour and suspicious activity on the devices we manage. When an investigation identifies a threat, the affected device can be isolated from the rest of the business.

02

MFA and account protection

Multi-factor authentication adds a second barrier when a password is stolen. We configure MFA and the supporting Microsoft 365 security settings as part of managing your users and accounts.

03

Email security

Anti-phishing filtering, impersonation protection and mailbox monitoring help catch the messages designed to fool your team. SPF, DKIM and DMARC help stop attackers from sending convincing email in your domain's name.

04

Vulnerability management

Automated scanning identifies known weaknesses. We connect those findings to patching and remediation tracking so an issue is not treated as solved merely because it appeared in a report. Penetration testing can be included when deeper validation is needed.

05

Security monitoring

Devices, Microsoft 365 accounts and email are managed as parts of the same environment. That shared view makes it easier to investigate unusual activity and act on the systems involved.

06

Awareness training

Practical security training helps staff recognize phishing, impersonation and unsafe requests. The business owner chooses a cadence that fits the team rather than being forced into an arbitrary schedule.

07

Incident response

When something suspicious happens, we investigate what occurred, isolate affected devices where necessary and lock down compromised accounts to contain the incident.

How it is delivered

From baseline to response

Cybersecurity becomes ongoing operational work rather than an annual project or a report that sits unread.

  1. 01

    Understand the environment

    We review the devices, Microsoft 365 setup, users and existing controls that will come under management.

  2. 02

    Close the immediate gaps

    MFA, endpoint protection, email controls and vulnerability remediation are prioritized around the risks that matter most.

  3. 03

    Manage and improve

    Scanning, patching, monitoring and remediation tracking become part of the ongoing Managed IT relationship.

  4. 04

    Contain incidents

    If suspicious activity is found, investigation, device isolation and account lockdown give us a practical route to containment.

Readiness and evidence

Turn security questions into documented answers

Regulated firms and growing suppliers are increasingly asked to show which controls they have, how weaknesses are handled and who is accountable. We help put the relevant technical controls in place and organize the technical information behind them.

SOC 2 Type II readiness

Technical controls, remediation records and evidence support for an auditor-led assessment.

ISO-aligned requirements

Help implementing and documenting the IT security controls relevant to the organization's scope.

Cyber-insurance questionnaires

Plain answers based on controls that are actually configured and managed.

Canopytech does not issue SOC 2 or ISO certifications and cannot guarantee an auditor, certification body or insurer's decision.

Who it is for

Built around the business, not an industry label

We support organizations across industries, especially teams whose work lives in Microsoft 365, firms handling regulated or confidential information, and businesses being asked to demonstrate security to customers or insurers.

Start privately

Check two common gaps before we talk

Our free tools can check your email authentication and help you review your current IT risk. No account or document upload is required.

Questions

Business cybersecurity FAQs

Can we buy cybersecurity without Managed IT?

No. Canopytech delivers business cybersecurity as part of Managed IT. The controls work best when the same team can manage the devices, accounts, Microsoft 365 configuration, patching and response actions behind them.

Does cybersecurity guarantee that we will never be breached?

No responsible provider can make that promise. The goal is to reduce the ways an attacker can get in, identify suspicious activity sooner, limit what a compromised account or device can reach, and give the business a defined response when something happens.

Can you help with SOC 2 Type II, ISO or cyber-insurance requirements?

We can help put relevant technical controls in place, track remediation and prepare the technical information requested in SOC 2 Type II or ISO-aligned assessments and cyber-insurance questionnaires. Auditors, certification bodies and insurers make the final decisions; Canopytech does not issue certifications or guarantee approval.

Do you provide penetration testing?

Penetration testing can be included when the business, an auditor, an insurer or a customer needs deeper validation than automated vulnerability scanning provides. Its scope is agreed before testing begins.

How often will our staff receive security training?

The cadence is chosen with the business owner. The right schedule depends on the team's risk, turnover, regulatory expectations and how training fits into the working year.

What happens if you find a compromised device or account?

We investigate the activity, isolate an affected managed device when necessary and lock down a compromised account to contain the incident. The exact response depends on what happened and which systems are involved.
