Premium managed security

Managed security for your business. Serious protection, run for you.

Northridge Cyber protects your computers, accounts and email around the clock. A dedicated security team watches for threats and acts fast, and you always have an expert you can call by name.

  • 24/7 threat detection
  • Identity and email protection
  • Safe browsing
  • Patching
Made for small business

Small businesses are a target. We are built around them.

  1. Attackers count on small businesses. Ransomware, phishing and fake payment requests aim at small businesses because attackers expect lighter defenses and no one watching.
  2. Built-in antivirus was never meant to stand alone. It catches known threats. It does not watch for an intruder already inside, and it cannot pick up the phone.
  3. You run the business. We run your security. No IT department needed: protection works quietly, experts watch around the clock, and you get clear answers from someone who knows your setup.
What we protect

Managed security for your devices and your people.

Start with protection for your computers. Add protection for your accounts and email if you use Google Workspace or Microsoft 365. Add extras when you need them. Set up once, then working quietly in the background on Windows and Mac.

For every computer

Endpoint protection

Your laptops and desktops, watched and kept healthy by our security team.

  • 24/7 monitored threat detection and response (EDR). A security operations team investigates and contains threats.
  • Remote management and support, so most problems get fixed without a visit.
  • DNS and web filtering that blocks malicious and phishing sites.
  • Patching of your operating system and apps.
  • Security posture checks, such as encryption and key settings.
For every person

Identity and email protection

For businesses on Google Workspace or Microsoft 365.

  • Account takeover detection and response on your business accounts: suspicious sign-ins, impossible travel, malicious inbox rules and hijacked sessions.
  • Email security that catches phishing, impersonation and malware that get past built-in filters. It connects by API, so your mail is never rerouted.
  • Security awareness training with short lessons and phishing simulations.

Add-ons

Cloud app log monitoring

We watch the activity logs of the cloud apps your business runs on and flag unusual behavior.

Network and firewall log monitoring

We watch the logs from your office network and firewall for signs of trouble.

Device backup

Copies of your computer's files kept safe, so a lost or locked laptop is not a lost business.

Included for every customer

A monthly report

A plain-language summary of the activity in your environment.

A yearly review

Once a year we go over it all with you and plan what comes next.

Help when something happens

Call or email us. We help you through it, and can connect to your computer, with your permission, to sort it out.

We are built to reduce your risk and stop threats early, and a real person is there if one gets through. No service can promise to stop every attack.

What changes

What most small businesses have, and what you get with us.

Most small businesses rely on what came with their computer and email. That is a good start. Here is what we add on top.

A typical small business

Built-in protection and not much else

  • The antivirus that came with each computer
  • The email provider's built-in spam filter
  • That is about it. No one watches for trouble, and no one is on call if something slips through.
With Northridge Cyber

You keep what you have, and we add the rest

  • Your built-in antivirus stays. We add a second layer that watches for anything acting strangely on your computer, and a team ready to stop it.
  • A security team watching your computers 24/7, ready to contain a threat
  • Safer browsing, regular patching and security posture checks
  • Your accounts watched for takeover
  • Email checked a second time for what the built-in filter misses
  • A monthly report, a yearly review and help when something happens

Why add EDR to antivirus?

Antivirus checks files against a list of known bad ones. That works well for common, older threats. EDR watches what software actually does. It can spot an attacker typing commands by hand, or a program that suddenly starts locking your files like ransomware, even when no known bad file is involved.

Because our team watches around the clock, they can also cut an affected device off from the network before the problem spreads.

What protecting your identity looks like

Your email and business accounts are the keys to everything else. We watch how they are used: a sign-in from somewhere unusual, a login that appears in two countries within the hour, a hidden rule that quietly forwards your mail, or a stolen session.

When something looks wrong, we act quickly to lock the account down and get you back in.

What added email security looks like

Your email provider already filters spam. We add a second layer that looks for what slips past: phishing, messages pretending to be your boss or a supplier, and malware.

It connects to your account in the background, so your mail is never rerouted and nothing changes for your team. Short lessons and practice phishing emails help your people spot the rest.

More layers reduce your risk. They do not remove it, and no service stops every attack.

Straight talk

What we don't do.

Better you hear it from us now. A good fit starts with clear limits.

  • Identity and email protection needs Google Workspace or Microsoft 365. We can't watch inside free webmail (Gmail, Yahoo, iCloud) for account takeover. Your computers are still fully covered.
  • Multi-factor sign-in stays in your hands. You control your accounts, and we watch them for signs of takeover.
  • No password manager is included.
  • We can't protect a mailbox someone else controls (a franchise, brokerage or parent company). We still cover your devices.
  • We don't promise perfect protection. No one can. We focus on prevention, and we're there to help if something gets through.
FAQ

Questions we hear a lot.

Do I need Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace?

Not for computer protection, which works with any email. Identity and email protection is for businesses on Google Workspace or Microsoft 365. A free Gmail, Yahoo or iCloud address can't have it, but your computers are still covered.

I already have antivirus. Do I still need it?

Yes, keep it. Built-in antivirus is a good first layer. We add a second layer that watches what programs actually do, not just a list of known bad files, and a security team ready to step in.

Will it slow my laptop down?

The software is light and runs quietly in the background. Most people never notice it. If you do, tell us and we'll look into it.

What if I get hacked?

Call or email us, and a real person helps you through it. Our security team is watching around the clock, and they act to contain the problem. If you have our backup add-on, we can restore your files from it. We focus on stopping threats early. No service can promise to prevent every attack.

Can you see my files and email?

We can connect to your computer for support, but only with your permission. Any backups you add are encrypted. We keep access to what is needed to protect and restore your setup.

What happens if I cancel?

It's month-to-month. Just give us 30 days' notice. We remove the software from your devices and we help you take any backups with you. We'll walk you through it.

Is there a minimum or maximum number of people?

We protect businesses of every size, from a single owner to a large team, and we cover everyone on it. Add or remove people any month.

Do you support Macs?

Yes. Windows and Mac laptops are both covered.

Do you sell insurance?

No. We aren't licensed insurance agents and we don't sell, quote or recommend coverage. If you want to talk to someone licensed, we can introduce you to a licensed cyber insurance broker. We never take a commission.

My email is run by a franchise or parent company. Can you still help?

Yes, with limits. We can't protect a mailbox someone else controls, but we still protect your computers.
