Level 2 Deep Dive: Proactive & Hardening
Shifting from Fire-Fighting to Threat Prevention
The Reality of Level 2
At the Proactive & Hardening stage, your organisation transitions from merely defending the perimeter to actively seeking out vulnerabilities.
You are no longer just looking for known viruses; you are analysing behaviour to catch sneaky threats before they cause damage.
The Challenge
While you are becoming more proactive, your team is likely dealing with alert fatigue.
Fragmented tools generate noise, and manual triage means an automated, AI-driven attack could still slip through the cracks while your team is busy reviewing logs.
The Geeks on Tap Solution Stack (Level 2)
Building upon Level 1, we harden your environment and introduce behavioural detection:
Advanced Endpoint Detection
We upgrade your endpoints to Sophos Synchronised Security (with XDR) or CrowdStrike Falcon (EDR). This shifts your defense from signature-based antivirus to behavioural detection, isolating compromised devices instantly.
Secure Hardware
We introduce Chrome OS devices for highly secure, cloud-first computing that drastically reduces the local attack surface and provide device management of Windows and/or MacOS via our MSP add-on services.
Domain Security (Enforcement)
We upgrade your Sendmarc policy to Quarantine or Reject. This actively stops cyber-criminals from spoofing your domain, protecting your customers and staff from impersonation attacks and instantly improving email deliverability.
Continuous Assessment
We run regular posture checks using workspacesecurity.tools to ensure configuration drift hasn't created new vulnerabilities.
Proactive Support
Our MSP services via geeksonchat.com.au transition to proactive patch management (add-on) and basic alert triage to reduce the burden on your internal staff.
