Managed Cybersecurity
Security controls, risk reduction, and practical protection against the attack paths that affect Israeli SMBs most.
Who managed cybersecurity is for
Managed cybersecurity services from NetFortress are built for Israeli small businesses that need real protection without putting a security team on the payroll. Sectors holding sensitive records, such as clinics and healthcare practices, feel that need first, and continuous monitoring and response is what closes the gap.
- Businesses with 5 to 50 employees and no internal security function
- Firms handling sensitive client, financial, or medical data
- Companies asked by customers, insurers, or partners to demonstrate security controls
- Businesses in regulated sectors – law, finance, healthcare – with compliance obligations
- Owners who suspect security gaps but have no way to measure or close them
The risks we manage for you
Attackers target small businesses precisely because basic controls are usually missing, and ransomware is the outcome they are aiming for. These are the gaps we close first:
Weak authentication without MFA
A single phished password becomes full access to email, files, and payments when multi-factor authentication is not enforced.
Misconfigured cloud accounts
Default Microsoft 365 settings leave sharing, forwarding, and admin roles open in ways attackers routinely exploit.
Nobody watching the alerts
Security products raise warnings, but without someone reviewing and acting on them, a breach can unfold unnoticed for weeks.
Ransomware with no tested recovery
An encryption attack halts the business, and an untested backup turns a bad day into weeks of lost data and income.
Business and security outcomes
- A prioritized, risk-based security plan instead of a pile of disconnected tools
- The highest-risk gaps closed first, within your budget and constraints
- Suspicious activity across endpoints and accounts monitored by people who know your environment
- Documented controls you can show customers, insurers, and auditors
- Plain-language reporting that owners and managers can act on
- A defined response process ready before an incident ever happens
What's included in managed cybersecurity
- Baseline security assessment of your environment
- Risk-prioritized remediation plan
- Monitoring for suspicious activity across endpoints and accounts
- Security policy and control management in Microsoft 365 and your network
- Review of and response to security alerts
- Patch status tracking across your environment
- Documentation of your security configuration
- Regular risk reviews as your business and the threat landscape change
- Compliance alignment for regulated industries, without over-engineering
- Guidance and support after security incidents
Not sure where your security stands?
A baseline assessment shows exactly where your business is exposed and what to fix first. Tell us about your environment and we will take it from there.
How the service starts
Baseline assessment
We map your current posture – authentication, exposed services, cloud configuration, unmanaged devices – and identify the gaps.
Prioritized remediation
Findings are ranked by actual business risk, and the highest-risk items are addressed first within your budget and constraints.
Ongoing protection
Monitoring, alert response, policy management, and regular risk reviews keep your posture current as threats evolve.
Response and escalation model
Security alerts are reviewed and triaged by severity: suspicious sign-ins, malware detections, and account anomalies are investigated, and genuine incidents are escalated to you through a defined process with clear ownership on both sides.
Because we maintain documentation of your security configuration, response starts from a known baseline rather than guesswork. After an incident you receive a plain-language summary of what happened, what we did, and what we recommend changing – the same clarity we bring when you report to partners, clients, or a board.
What we work with
Controls are built on the platforms your business already runs:
- Microsoft 365 security and compliance
- Endpoint detection and response (EDR)
- Firewalls and network security
- Identity protection and MFA enforcement
- Email security and anti-phishing
- Backup and recovery
- Security monitoring and alerting
What this service is not
- Not a one-time audit that ends with a report – findings are implemented and monitored on an ongoing basis
- Not an enterprise SOC service – the scope and cost are matched to SMB environments
- Not a certification body – we align your controls with requirements, while formal certification audits are performed by external assessors
Managed cybersecurity FAQs
We are a small business. Are we really a target?
Yes. Attackers automate their campaigns and go after whoever is easiest to breach, and small businesses without basic controls are the easiest. Most incidents start with phishing or an exposed, unpatched service rather than a sophisticated attack.
We already have antivirus. Is that not enough?
Antivirus is one layer. It does not stop a phished password, a misconfigured cloud account, or an attacker using legitimate credentials. Managed cybersecurity covers identity, cloud configuration, monitoring, and response alongside endpoint protection.
What happens when you find a problem?
Findings are prioritized by business risk. Genuine incidents trigger the response process: we investigate, contain where possible, keep you informed in plain language, and document what changed.
Can you help us meet cyber-insurance requirements?
Many Israeli SMBs now need to demonstrate basic security controls to qualify for cyber insurance or win contracts. We implement those controls and provide the documented evidence.
Do we also need managed IT support?
The services complement each other but are separate. Cybersecurity focuses on risk, controls, and monitoring; managed IT covers day-to-day support and operations. Many clients combine them, and we will tell you honestly what fits your situation.
