One service. Full coverage. Endpoint management, security monitoring, data protection, and automated threat response — delivered as a managed service designed for the realities of public-sector IT.
Of K-12 districts experienced a cyberattack in the past three years
"Public schools are among the most targeted institutions in the United States — and most attacks succeed because of gaps in endpoint security, patching, and monitoring that managed services are designed to close."

Public sector organizations have no tested endpoint backup plan
"Without reliable endpoint backup and recovery, ransomware attacks that encrypt or destroy data often result in extended downtime, large recovery costs, and significant data loss."

Of breaches in public sector involve endpoints
"Endpoints are the most common point of compromise in public sector organizations, and effective protection requires unified monitoring, detection, and response — not point solutions."

Public entities face an increasingly complex cybersecurity environment with limited IT staff, growing device counts, and expanding compliance obligations. Most do not have the in-house resources to manage endpoint security, monitoring, backup, and threat response consistently — leaving critical gaps that are difficult to detect and expensive to remediate.
Managing endpoint security, backup, and monitoring in-house is resource-intensive. Most public entities simply do not have the staff or tooling to do it consistently.
Small IT teams in schools and public agencies are responsible for hundreds or thousands of endpoints. Adding consistent security monitoring, patching, and threat response is often not feasible without external support.
Many organizations manage antivirus, remote monitoring, backup, and patching as separate tools with separate dashboards. Fragmented tooling creates visibility gaps and makes consistent policy enforcement nearly impossible.
FERPA, HIPAA, CJIS, and cyber insurance requirements increasingly expect documented evidence of endpoint security controls, monitoring, backup testing, and incident response capability.
Public sector organizations face phishing, ransomware, credential theft, and supply chain attacks at growing frequency. Without continuous monitoring and automated threat response, alerts go unreviewed.
Endpoint management, security, data protection, and automation are delivered together — not as separate tools from separate vendors requiring separate attention.

Policy & Reporting
A complete managed security program — endpoint monitoring, security, data protection, patch management, and reporting delivered as a unified service for schools and public agencies.
Every endpoint across your organization is monitored continuously — with proactive alerts, health dashboards, and remote troubleshooting support so issues are identified before they cause disruption.
Antivirus, endpoint detection and response, and ransomware protection are deployed and managed across all devices. Threats are detected, contained, and responded to — not just flagged for an overwhelmed IT team.
A security operations center monitors your environment around the clock. Suspicious activity, behavioral anomalies, and active threats are reviewed by security analysts before escalation.
Every managed device is covered by automated backup with regular verification and tested recovery. In the event of ransomware or hardware failure, recovery is faster and data loss is minimized.
Operating system and third-party software patches are deployed on a consistent schedule across all managed endpoints. Patching compliance is documented and reportable for audit and insurance purposes.
Regular reports on device health, security events, patch status, backup verification, and threat activity are delivered. Documentation supports cyber insurance, compliance reviews, and board-level reporting.
Cybersecurity tools are designed for your budget, your team size, and your compliance requirements.
Managed security for schools and public agencies requires an understanding of FERPA, HIPAA, CJIS, and the budget, staffing, and procurement realities of public organizations. The service model is designed around how public entities actually operate.
Cyber insurers require documented evidence of endpoint security controls, monitoring, backup, and patch management. Managed security service documentation is prepared for your insurer, helping reduce premiums and satisfy coverage requirements.
Endpoint management, security, backup, and automation are delivered together under a single managed service engagement. There is no need to manage multiple vendor relationships or coordinate between tools that were never designed to work together.
Includes endpoint management, security monitoring, backup, patching, and threat response — delivered alongside your internal IT staff rather than replacing them. Your team retains ownership of day-to-day operations.
Everything in the Co-Managed option, PLUS 24/7 SOC coverage. Alerts are monitored and triaged around the clock, so your organization has active protection outside of business hours without requiring internal staff to be on call.
A straightforward three-step process to assess, deploy, and monitor your managed security environment.
Your current environment, device inventory, existing security tools, compliance obligations, and internal IT structure are reviewed. The scope of managed services most appropriate for your organization is defined collaboratively.
Endpoint management agents, security tooling, backup coverage, and monitoring configurations are deployed across your managed devices. Security policies, alert thresholds, patch schedules, and reporting cadences are established based on your environment and requirements.
Your environment is continuously monitored for threats, device health issues, patch compliance gaps, and backup failures. Regular reports are delivered on security posture, threat activity, and endpoint status — keeping leadership informed.

Everything you need to know about managed security for schools and public agencies.
Managed IT services typically focus on helpdesk support, network administration, and day-to-day operations. Managed security services are specifically focused on cybersecurity — monitoring endpoints for threats, detecting and responding to attacks, managing security tools, and maintaining protective controls. This service is purpose-built for security outcomes, not general IT support.
No. Co-managed engagements are specifically designed to work alongside internal IT staff, complementing existing capabilities rather than replacing them. Tool consolidation and configuration are handled as part of the onboarding process, with decisions made collaboratively based on what your organization already has in place.
Cyber insurers require documented evidence of security controls including endpoint protection, monitoring, patching, and backup. Managed security service documentation is prepared for your insurer, providing the evidence of active controls that insurance carriers increasingly require for coverage and favorable premiums.
The service supports FERPA, HIPAA, CJIS, NIST CSF, and CIS Controls — the frameworks most relevant to K-12 districts, community colleges, municipalities, and special districts. Compliance documentation and reporting are included in the service.
Deployment timelines vary by organization size and existing environment. Most engagements are fully deployed and operational within two to four weeks of the initial assessment. Endpoint agents, security tooling, and backup coverage are deployed in a structured sequence to minimize disruption.
The service is designed specifically for K-12 school districts, community colleges, municipalities, special districts, and other public agencies. Organizations of all sizes are supported — from small rural districts with a few hundred devices to larger urban agencies with thousands of managed endpoints.
