What we Do
Firewall Management
Urban IT’s security technicians manage the ongoing configuration and maintenance of your business’s firewall to ensure policies are properly configured and updated. We regularly monitor logs, perform vulnerability scans, and review firewall rules to protect your network from data leaks and cyberattacks.
Endpoint Protection
We utilize next-generation antivirus (NGAV) and endpoint detection and response (EDR) tools to allow us to provide real-time protection, 24/7 monitoring, schedule regular scans, and use threat intelligence to protect your organization’s systems from malware attacks and threats.
Advanced Email Security
When you partner with us, you will gain access to a comprehensive set of email security tools that we utilize to greatly improve your security posture. Some key examples of these tools include spam filtering, phishing protection, malware scanning, email encryption, spoofing prevention, and more.
Data Encryption
We protect your business’s sensitive data by encrypting the locations in which the data is stored to prevent attackers from being able to read or modify the data without the use of a strong and secure decryption key. Urban IT will handle the deployment and management of endpoint encryption for your systems.
Disaster Recovery
Every business should have a disaster recovery plan that outlines the procedures, resources, and responsibilities required to recover or rebuild an IT environment following a disruptive event. This protects your business in the event of natural disasters, hardware failures, and cyberattacks.
System Patching
As part of our managed IT services, we regularly scan for and apply updates to your computers and network devices. These updates often include vulnerability fixes (patches) that the developers are resolving for their products. System patching is a critical part of cybersecurity and meeting compliance standards.
Penetration Testing
Penetration testing, or pen testing, is used to simulate attacks on your computer systems, applications, and network to identify, exploit, and asses any potential vulnerabilities. This is done proactively to find any weak points that real-world attackers could otherwise take advantage of to break into your systems.
Vulnerability Assessments
We perform vulnerability assessments to identify, analyze, and report on any security vulnerabilities we find in your business’s overall security posture. Based on the results of our assessment, we can make recommendations and establish remediation plan in a proactive approach.
Security Policies
Businesses in the modern world deserve to have strong security policies in place to establish a clear framework for managing and safeguarding their digital information and systems. Generally, security policies outline an organization’s principles, rules, and best practices for their team to follow to protect IT assets and data.
Security Training
Security training helps employees recognize and prevent cyber threats through interactive lessons and phishing simulations. It builds awareness around social engineering, strong passwords, and safe online behavior, reducing human error, the biggest security risk. Regular training ensures your team stays alert.
Multifactor Authentication (MFA)
MFA adds an extra layer of security to your online accounts and computers by requiring more than just a password to access accounts. It uses a second factor, like a phone app or security code, to verify identity, making it far harder for attackers to gain unauthorized access.
Password Manager
We encourage using a password manager to securely store and auto-fill complex, unique passwords for every account. This reduces the risk of weak or reused credentials, simplifies the login process, improves overall productivity, and helps prevent unauthorized access to sensitive business data.
