SECURE YOUR BUSINESS

Helixstorm’s Three Lines of Defense

Once upon a time, only big, well-known companies worried about ransomware attacks. Unfortunately, organizations large, medium and small are ransomware targets today. Since experts predict that at least 75% of businesses will face one or more attacks by 2025, securing your business has never been more important.

We solve your IT concerns with a unique three-prong security strategy that sets us apart from other MSSPs. Our Three Lines of Defense™ approach includes enacting preventative measures, training users to detect and respond to potential threats, and implementing a best-of-breed backup and recovery solution to protect critical data.
