Enterprise-Grade Security Made Accessible
Introducing Security Essentials

As a small to mid-sized business (SMB), you face the same threats as large enterprises but are often seen as a much more vulnerable target. 94% of SMBs suffered at least one cybersecurity attack last year, and the risk is real as 76% admit they lack in-house skills to respond properly. To compound the challenge, traditional solutions are either too expensive, too complex, or don’t provide hands-on guidance.
Security Essentials changes all that. As a fully managed cybersecurity subscription built specifically for SMBs, Security Essentials delivers these key benefits within days of purchase:
Enterprise-Grade Security at an SMB Price – Reduce risk without the cost and complexity of enterprise tools
Dedicated vCISO to Guide & Protect You – Gain weekly expert guidance instead of facing alerts on your own
Clear Security Visibility with Prioritized Tasks – See your Health Score and ranked priorities so you know what to fix first
Low, Discounted Price for New Customers
