Why small businesses get hit
It’s not because attackers find you interesting. Most attacks are automated — software scanning for weak spots at scale — and they land on small businesses because the defenses are thinner, not because anyone picked you.
The good news buried in that: you don’t need an enterprise security budget. You need the right layers in place, kept current, and someone watching them. Most incidents we see started with one email and one click — which means most incidents are preventable.
That’s what our cybersecurity services do: put the layers in place, manage them continuously, and train your team to be a defense instead of a doorway. No scare tactics, no products you don’t need.
“We are a small business and have been using them for all our technical, computer, and cybersecurity needs for over 5 years and they have never let us down.”
Stacey L. — Lisa Tom CPA
The layers that do the work
No single product stops everything. These six together stop almost everything.
Email security
Most attacks arrive by email. Filtering, link protection, and spoofing defenses stop the bulk of them before anyone can click.
Endpoint protection
Every computer and server runs managed detection that spots and isolates threats — not the antivirus you remember from 2010.
MFA and identity
Multi-factor authentication is the single most effective control you can turn on. We enforce it everywhere it matters, starting with email.
Patching and updates
Attackers exploit known holes that fixes already exist for. We keep your systems patched on schedule, in the background.
Tested backups
The last line of defense. If everything else fails, a tested backup turns a catastrophe into a bad afternoon.
Security awareness training
Your staff sees the attacks your filters miss. Short, regular training turns your team into a working layer of defense.
Cybersecurity consulting for Vancouver, WA businesses
Sometimes you don’t need another tool — you need someone to look at what you have and tell you the truth.
Our cybersecurity consulting starts with a security posture review: we assess your current defenses, find the gaps that actually matter, and hand you a prioritized plan in plain English. No fear pitch, no padded quote.
It’s the same work we do for businesses across Vancouver, Salmon Creek, Camas, and the surrounding area — and it’s exactly what a cyber insurer, an auditor, or your own board will ask you to show. Whether you’re meeting a compliance requirement or just want a straight answer on your risk, we’ll tell you what’s solid, what’s exposed, and what it costs to fix. If you’d rather start on your own, the federal government’s cybersecurity guidance for small businesses is a solid, free baseline — and a good sense of the cybersecurity services worth having in place.
Cyber insurance is now a security audit
Insurers stopped taking your word for it. We help you pass.
What insurers now require
MFA on email and remote access. Endpoint detection on every machine. Tested, separated backups. Security training for staff. Answer the renewal questionnaire wrong — or guess — and you’re looking at higher premiums, denied coverage, or a claim that doesn’t pay out when you need it most.
What we do about it
We work through cyber insurance questionnaires with our clients every renewal season — completing them accurately, closing the gaps they expose, and documenting every control so the answers hold up. If you’ve got a renewal sitting on your desk and you’re not sure what half the questions mean, that’s a call we take all the time.
Trusted with what matters
CPA firms, healthcare offices, schools — businesses where security isn’t optional.

Common questions about cybersecurity
What business owners ask when they start taking security seriously. If yours isn’t here, call and ask it directly.
What do your cybersecurity services include?
Six managed layers: email security, endpoint detection on every machine, MFA and identity management, scheduled patching, tested backups, and security awareness training for your staff — plus 24/7 monitoring across all of it and help with cyber insurance requirements.
We're a small business. Are we really a target?
Yes, but not personally. Most attacks are automated and hit whatever they can reach — small businesses get caught because defenses are thinner, not because anyone chose them. The flip side: basic layers done well stop the overwhelming majority of what’s actually aimed at you.
Can you help with our cyber insurance questionnaire?
Yes — we do this with clients every renewal season. We complete the questionnaire accurately, close the gaps it exposes, and document your controls so the answers hold up if there’s ever a claim. Guessing on these forms is how businesses end up with denied claims.
Do our employees really need security training?
It’s one of the highest-value layers you can add. Most incidents start with a person clicking something, and your filters will never catch 100%. Short, regular training measurably cuts click rates — and insurers increasingly require it anyway.
What does cybersecurity cost?
Core protections are part of every managed IT agreement. The enhanced security stack is priced per user, so it scales with your headcount. Standalone security assessments are scoped and quoted up front. Either way, you’ll know the number before anything starts.
What happens if we get hit anyway?
You call us and we go to work: isolate, assess, restore from backups, and document everything for insurance. That’s also why the backup layer matters so much — with tested backups, even a successful attack becomes recoverable. See our emergency IT support page for what to do in the moment.
Not sure where you stand?
Start with an honest security assessment. You’ll get a plain-English picture of your gaps, which cybersecurity services actually close them, and what it costs — no fear tactics, no padded quote.
