Your Cybersecurity Service Provider

Onward Technology: an Industry-Leader in Cybersecurity & Managed Services

If cybersecurity isn’t at the top of your IT concerns, it should be. A decade ago, you might have gotten away with a casual information security approach, but things are far different today.

Cybercriminals are getting more creative with their attacks, consistently searching for new ways to gain access to corporate infrastructure. At the same time, companies have become completely dependent on technology to perform their daily business functions.

This combination of risks can be costly to your business. According to CNBC, the average cost of a cyber incident is $200,000; which is more than enough to shut down many small and medium-sized companies for good.If you don't have a trusted cybersecurity service provider, you’re taking a gamble on your company’s future.
Enter Onward Technology. Keeping businesses protected from cyber threats isn’t just one of our offerings—it's the framework for everything we do.Whether you're looking to outsource desktop support, or create a custom network for your business, keeping your confidential data out of the wrong hands is always at the top of our priority list.

Next-Generation Threat Protection

The world of cybersecurity is constantly evolving, and you need to ensure that your network is protected from all threats at all times. We're able to provide you with an advanced next-generation firewall solution that will help you meet the challenges of today and those of the future.

Many traditional firewalls focus on a single threat or attack type, which can leave them vulnerable when a new one emerges on the scene. Our advanced firewall solution instead offers complete protection against all types of threats, so you can rest assured your network is protected at all times.

Why You Need a Holistic Approach to Cyber Defense

Let us design and manage your network! We can also lay wiring for security cameras, PA systems, projectors, phones, and more.

Cybersecurity is an ongoing effort. Firewalls and antivirus software are just basic steps in protecting your business. On their own, they won't be enough to safeguard your infrastructure

You need a cybersecurity service provider who takes a comprehensive approach to your overall web security. Luckily, Onward Technology provides dependable services throughout the entire security lifecycle.

2. Protection

There’s no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to security. Once we've figured out where your current IT solution falls short, Onward helps you explore various solutions to optimize your infrastructure. Here are the steps we follow to ensure you have proper protection:

Review Access Management Policies
Stanford University recently conducted a study revealing 88% of data breaches are caused by human error. While often overlooked, your employees are the biggest vulnerability to your company's security. By evaluating the extent of your software access, Onward Technology tightens up your current process and eliminates weak links.
Create an Application Inventory
Compiling a list of your current applications helps outline your business's IT infrastructure, providing a holistic view of all your platforms.
Audit Individual Permissions
Once Onward has a complete picture of your current operations, we assess your setup and run permission audits for each application. Our expert team pays special attention to privileged accounts, reviewing them with you to ensure validity.

Identify Single-Sign-On (SSO) Platforms
After we review your employee's access permissions, Onward gets to work securing their credentials. If you have any SSO services within your organization, we'll help secure your login procedures by implementing multi-factor authentication (MFA). For those unfamiliar with MFA, it acts as an extra layer of security to protect your login information. If anyone tries to login on an unfamiliar device, the account owner is sent a one-time code to confirm they’re the ones using the unregistered device.
Protect Hardware Assets
Lastly, Onward’s cybersecurity services provide you with safeguards that protect access points within your IT infrastructure, such as:
- Updating overdue security measures
- Installing the newest versions of firmware installed on your devices and servers
- Patch gaps in your network to ensure antivirus protection is current across all platforms.
