Learn more about IT Insights’ innovative approach to cybersecurity services that reduce cyber insurance costs while improving cybersecurity.* ### **THE IMPACT OF CYBERSECURITY** Cybersecurity is critical to your business IT Infrastructure and plays a vital role in the overall health of your organization. In the [2022 statistics released by the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center](https://www.fbi.gov/contact-us/field-offices/springfield/news/internet-crime-complaint-center-releases-2022-statistics), they received a staggering 800,944 complaints. Though total complaints decreased by 5% compared to the previous year, losses went up 49%, reaching over $10.3 billion in losses. > To summarize, the threat is real. Seeking a trusted cybersecurity consulting partner to help you avoid and mitigate cyberattacks and losses is crucial. ### **HOW IT INSIGHTS CAN HELP DEFEND YOUR BUSINESS FROM CYBER THREATS** IT Insights is consistently evaluating tools to help harden defenses. Since opening our doors in 2019, our suite of cybersecurity tools has steadily expanded, adapting to address emerging and evolving threats. To ensure an effective enhancement of cybersecurity for organizations, we adopted a three-tier approach for cybersecurity services. These services meet your specific needs and provide the best protection at a low cost. #### Cost-Effective Cybersecurity Solutions IT Insights’ cybersecurity solutions tiers align with industry and regulatory best practices and [cybersecurity insurance requirements](https://www.strongdm.com/blog/cyber-insurance-requirements). This model makes advanced IT security solutions affordable for all organizations, including small businesses. **Here are the cybersecurity tools and solutions included in each level of protection:** #### What Kind of Cybersecurity Protection Do I Need? Ultimately, our strong recommendation for all clients is Tier 3 cybersecurity protection. Tier 3 applications collectively ensure a fortified defense against potential threats and enhance security and protection. It offers the highest level of security, provides robust cybersecurity, and is the current industry standard for cyber safety and protection. And, at $25 per endpoint user, it is a small investment that yields tangible results. More on that later. ### **TIER 1: ANTI-VIRUS SOLUTIONS WITH TIMELY AND EFFICIENT REMOTE SUPPORT** #### Worry-Free Antivirus Protection ![](https://itinsightsroc.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Logo-TrendMicro.png) In Tier 1, we offer the powerful [Trend Micro Worry-Free Antivirus](https://www.techtarget.com/searchsecurity/feature/Antimalware-protection-tools-Trend-Micro-Worry-Free-Business-Security?Offer=abt_pubpro_AI-Insider), a next-generation holistic antivirus solution. **If you don’t have Trend Worry-Free Antivirus, you need it.** This is an essential tool for every PC, laptop, and server. Over the last twenty years, its developers tested, refined, and proved the application’s effectiveness. (That’s like dog years in Internet time.) #### Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) ![Datto](https://itinsightsroc.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Logo-Datto.png) Our second tool, [Datto’s RMM](https://www.datto.com/products/rmm/), is a secure cloud-based platform that provides remote performance monitoring of PCs and laptops. It proactively notifies IT Insights cybersecurity specialists of potential issues, unusual behavior, or problems. In fact, Datto RMM often alerts us before the user even notices a problem. When issues arise, RMM allows us to access a user’s computer from any location remotely. Then, we can offer assistance quickly without taking away control from the end user. This feature is particularly helpful for those with remote workers. ### **TIER 2: ROBUST EMAIL SECURITY AND USER TRAINING** In Tier 2, our focus shifts to strengthening email security with a suite of comprehensive tools. #### Phishing Attack Prevention As the FBI statistics above note, phishing attacks are the most common and challenging threats to defend against. Even with multiple security measures in place, users can unknowingly divulge sensitive information creating challenging recovery situations. ![KnowBe4 Logo](https://itinsightsroc.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Logo-KnowBe4.png) As the saying goes, knowledge is power. Tier 2 focuses on teaching users to recognize phishing attacks, so they can protect themselves and their teams from potential risks. We provide monthly training with short videos on cyber-attacks and phishing using the best-in-class [KnowBe4 Cyber Awareness ](https://www.knowbe4.com/en/knowbe4-training-modules-overview/)program. We offer extra training to employees who need it, like those who can access financial data, personal information, and important systems. These courses equip users with the knowledge to recognize and thwart phishing attempts. We also conduct quarterly simulated phishing attacks to assess further and improve user response, recording successes and failures. Internal stakeholders receive comprehensive reports of these fake phishing exercises. #### Email Security Tools ![Graphus](https://itinsightsroc.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Logo-Graphus.png) Our next tool, [Graphus](https://www.graphus.ai/product/), works with your email to filter and block threats before they reach your inbox. It also adds banners to external messages for extra protection. Users also receive alerts about unusual emails, enhancing overall awareness. ![Dark Web ID](https://itinsightsroc.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Logo-DarkWebID.png) We configure [DarkWebID](https://www.idagent.com/products/dark-web-monitoring/) on each email tenant. This program scans dark web directories for leaked email addresses using your domain. Daily reports notify us of compromised emails and passwords. If found, we will assist in taking appropriate action. Our strong email security measures greatly reduce the risk of phishing attacks and strengthen your digital defenses. ### **TIER 3: POWERFUL ORGANIZATIONAL SECURITY** Tier 3 is IT Insights’ ultimate solution for comprehensive security hardening and features three powerful tools. #### Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) ![Huntress Logo](https://itinsightsroc.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Logo-Huntress-1.png)If antivirus software is similar to armor, [EDR is your network’s fortress](https://www.huntress.com/defenders-handbook/endpoint-detection-and-response). Using Huntress EDR, IT Insights tracks threat vectors across your network, devices, and digital assets. This approach fully analyzes all threats to your environment. EDR is also an aspect of cybersecurity protection that insurance providers frequently ask about on applications. #### AI-Enabled Cyber Defense In Tier 3, we offer Huntress’ managed SOC. It uses advanced technology to monitor and protect against serious threats all the time. The application’s AI diligently reviews threats, flagging any issues requiring attention, with human experts reviewing these flagged threats. Huntress informs us immediately if they discover a genuine threat – day or night. This allows us to promptly address the issue. In severe cases, the program automatically quarantines the affected device or application to prevent transmission. #### Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) ![Duo Logo](https://itinsightsroc.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Logo-CiscoDuo.png)Finally, we leverage Duo for 2FA for added security, seamlessly integrating with other platforms to streamline the user experience. 2FA/MFA (Multi-Factor Authentication) are potent security measures that should be mandatory for all users, given its exceptional level of security. [Learn why 2FA is so important](https://itinsightsroc.com/insights/2fa-the-best-defense-against-cyberattacks/ "The Power of Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)"). These formidable Tier 3 tools reinforce your company’s security, ensuring a bulletproof defense against potential cyber threats. ### **COST-EFFECTIVE DIGITAL SECURITY SOLUTIONS FOR SAVINGS** #### Real-World Results We are confident in the exceptional tools we have assembled. They offer the highest security at a remarkably reasonable price point. These solutions not only save money by preventing financial losses from cyber attacks. They also reduce overall IT operating costs. But you don’t have to take our word for it. **How Cybersecurity Tier 3 is Helping Clients** > \[Include a direct quote/testimonial here\] Recently, a Tier 3 client shared exciting news—her business’ cybersecurity insurance premium **decreased by $500 monthly**. According to the insurance provider, this was an unusual case where rates dropped. **It was the only premium reduction this provider had seen this year.** Witnessing our security tools’ positive impact in improving digital assets and saving clients money brings us immense satisfaction. ### **READY TO ENROLL IN IT INSIGHTS CYBERSECURITY PROTECTION?** If you are a current client, we encourage you to contact your account manager with questions.
