Managed Cybersecurity Services for Small Businesses

Attackers go after small businesses because they expect weak defenses. Our managed cybersecurity services make sure yours are not, then keep watching.

Quick answer

Managed cybersecurity services mean a provider protects and watches your systems continuously. Fasthuma IT combines patching, managed anti-virus and Wazuh SIEM security monitoring, so threats are blocked or flagged early instead of discovered after the damage.

Why small businesses need managed cybersecurity services

Most attacks on small businesses are not sophisticated. A staff member opens a fake invoice, a password is reused, or a computer has been missing updates for months. The result can be locked files, a drained bank account or a client data breach you have to disclose.

Our job is to close those easy doors and to notice quickly when someone tries one anyway.

How we protect your business

Patch management

Unpatched software is one of the most common ways in. We update Windows, macOS and business applications on a schedule and report what was installed.

Managed anti-virus

We deploy and maintain anti-virus on every workstation, server and virtual machine, and we respond when it detects something instead of leaving a pop-up for your staff.

Wazuh SIEM security monitoring

On the Blaze and Inferno plans, Wazuh SIEM collects security events from your devices in one place. It flags signs of trouble such as repeated failed sign-ins, new administrator accounts, malware detections and unexpected configuration changes, so we can investigate early.

Microsoft 365 security

Inferno includes Microsoft 365 Business Premium, which adds Microsoft Defender, Intune device management and conditional access. We configure multi-factor sign-in and sensible policies so a stolen password alone is not enough.

Firewalls and network security

We manage business firewalls, including Fortinet and Ubiquiti, keep their firmware current and watch them for problems. For a full security assessment or a compliance project, our cybersecurity consulting team can help.

Compliance support

If your business handles health, payment or personal data, rules such as HIPAA and PCI DSS apply. Our monitoring, patching and documentation give you evidence of good security practice, and we can help you work through the technical parts of an audit.

FAQ

Cybersecurity questions

What is a SIEM?

A SIEM (security information and event management) system gathers security logs from your computers, servers and network devices and looks for patterns that suggest an attack. Fasthuma IT uses Wazuh SIEM on its Blaze and Inferno plans.

Is anti-virus enough to protect my business?

No. Anti-virus stops known malware, but many attacks use stolen passwords or unpatched software. Layered protection with patching, multi-factor sign-in, security monitoring and backups is far safer.

Can you help after we have been hacked?

Yes. Call us right away at 510-371-9468. We help contain the problem, restore systems from backup and close the gap that let the attacker in.
