Cybersecurity Solutions Cleveland and Beyond
Practical and Powerful Network Security Defenses
You are living in a time of unprecedented external threat. This backdrop is set against a sea change in how, where and when people work. The very workplace itself has been more radically transformed in the last 24 months than it has in the last 24 years. Remote work, multiple OS’, BYO devices, widely divergent generational preferences – and the market together with your customers demanding innovation of your products, services and customer experience. There’s huge upside and downside.
Therefore, as your strategic partner, our goal is not security at the cost of productivity, but both security and productivity.
At Accellis, we provide cybersecurity consulting to industries with some of the most stringent requirements, including legal, financial, banking, insurance, and government. Our experience in these regulated and targeted industries means we have an armory of expertise, certifications, and resources to harden your defenses. Our process – the Accellis Assessment Framework (AAF) – follows industry standards and best practices like NIST, SEC, and FINRA to identify and mitigate risks. But we also use a pragmatic and reasonable approach that balances security and compliance against your budgets and practical needs.

Managed Security: CORE Cybersecurity by Accellis SecOps
Key Network Security Offerings

Backup & DR
Your top threats in the SMB space are email and ransomware. Preparedness means having onsite and offsite backups that you have absolute certainty you can restore. Our backup solutions cover all physical and virtual workloads (on-premises and cloud), including M365, and offer multiple layers of redundancy. And, though it’s most important that you can restore, your ability to restore quickly is essential, too. That’s why our solutions can obtain any RTO/RPO.

Email Security
When it comes to cybersecurity, email is the weakest access point, acting like an open door for 94% of malware breaches. The good news is that securing email is also one of the most cost-effective safety measures you can take, and Accellis has an arsenal of solutions to protect you and your network. Our solutions include domain fraud prevention, anti-spoofing, anti-impersonation, AI-based anti-spear phishing and anti-spam, cloud BDR with unlimited storage, and ongoing security training, all for a flat-rate monthly fee per user.

Security Assessments
As experts in cybersecurity consulting, Accellis can provide invaluable insight into your security, compliance, and risk. Our staff have attained some of the industries best security certifications including CEH, OSCP, and CISSP. In the simplest terms possible, our assessments provide a snapshot of what you have, what you need, and how to bridge the gap. We look at the complete picture – from infrastructure design to policies and procedures to workflow considerations and beyond. And we won’t abandon you with just a dossier of data. We can continue to work with you to implement our recommendations.

Vulnerability Management

Penetration Testing
Our customized penetration tests are designed to challenge your network security and elucidate areas that need improvement. Engagements can include running an external scan and attempting to brute force the top attack vectors, or we can customize a more detailed approach to include social engineering, dark web searches, spear-phishing, web scraping, and even physical security testing. In one of our recent tests, providing our security engineer with just the organization’s name and website address, we were able to secure nine Office 365 usernames and passwords in four minutes by spoofing a 365 login page and sending a spam email from a fake administrator at the firm.

Multi-Factor Authentication
One of the lowest cost, highest impact security investments you can make is MFA. Basic 2FA is included in all M365 plans. Once implemented, it almost takes a nation state to breach you. Hackers move on to lower hanging fruit. MFA means a hacker needs to pass through a few safety nets before they can access your equipment, software, or data. These may include something you know (i.e., password), something you have (i.e., trusted device), or something you are (i.e., biometric). Our MFA solutions can factor in geography (i.e., no login from outside the US), user behavior (i.e., risky sign in), anomalous activity (i.e., impossible travel), and even more advanced features like dark web searches to ensure your credentials aren’t for sale online somewhere.

SOC, EDR and XDR
Working with our sister company, AgileBlue, we provide outsourced Security Operations Center as a Service with full XDR capabilities. With Defender for Endpoint, we are able to provide full EDR including enabling automatically quarantining infected assets for self-healing. Our solutions deliver 24×7 human monitoring, alerting, and logging, together with real-time incident detection and response. The average breach goes unnoticed for 45 days; this is where the real damage is done. Man in the middle attacks make a living off these 45 days. SOC/EDR/XDR allow us to reduce that intrusion to mere minutes providing you with the ability to stop the attack, prevent data loss, and eliminate the need to notify clients and law enforcement. Traditionally, to get a SOC, you needed to spend six figures buying a solution like Splunk and then another six figures staffing it. No longer.
