Layered defenses, watched around the clock — because one lock was never going to be enough.
I’ll be straight with you: attackers don’t care how big your business is. They scan for open doors — a weak password, an unfiltered inbox, an unpatched laptop — and small businesses have plenty of doors. My approach is defense in depth: several independent layers of protection, so when one layer misses, the next one catches.
Start with an honest look
- Free IT assessment: We map your current defenses and find the gaps before an attacker does.
- A plan in plain English: You get a prioritized roadmap — what to fix now, what can wait, and what it costs.
- No scare tactics: I’d rather explain a risk clearly than frighten you into buying something you don’t need.
This is the same security stack my team at CMIT Solutions of Austin Central deploys for regulated industries — sized and priced for small business.
The security stack
Every layer covers a different angle of attack — devices, identities, email, and the humans in between.

Layer 1
Perimeter & Endpoint Defense
Managed firewall · EDR (endpoint detection and response) · DNS filtering

Layer 2
Email & Identity Protection
Anti-phishing filtering · MFA (multi-factor authentication) · SSO (single sign-on)

Layer 3
Detection & Intelligence
SIEM (security information and event management) · Dark web monitoring · Deep packet inspection

Layer 4
People & Strategy
Security awareness training · vCISO guidance · Encryption everywhere
Managed Detection & Response (MDR)
Tools alone don’t stop modern attacks — people do. MDR (managed detection and response) pairs your security stack with a SOC (security operations center): real analysts watching your network around the clock, hunting threats, and responding in minutes instead of the next business morning.
What that looks like in practice
- Threat hunting: Humans actively search for attackers who slipped past automated defenses.
- Behavioral analysis: We baseline what normal looks like on your network, so abnormal stands out fast.
- Rapid containment: Compromised machines are isolated immediately, before an incident becomes a breach.
It plugs into tools you may already own — Microsoft Defender, SentinelOne, or CrowdStrike — so you’re strengthening what you have, not starting over. For healthcare and hospitality businesses around Central Texas handling patient records or card payments, this is the layer that keeps you off the front page.
