Cybersecurity threats are constantly evolving, and malicious actors are adept at finding vulnerabilities and security gaps to exploit. By bridging these security gaps, MSP XYZ provides clients with a comprehensive and proactive defense against a wide range of threats.


The Cyber Pack is a fully managed security solution that takes a layered approach to protecting your digital assets by employing multiple security tools designed to address specific threats. Combining multiple controls at different levels makes it more difficult for bad actors to penetrate your systems, vastly reducing the risk of a catastrophic breach. These diverse measures create a robust security posture for your organization.

  • The Human Layer: KnowBe4

    • Security Awareness Training & Simulated Phishing Campaigns educate users on security best practices and the potential risks they may encounter, including social engineering.


  • Perimeter Security: Mimecast

    • Email Hygiene & Spam Filtering protects against phishing and malware attacks. An email security and management tool provides comprehensive email hygiene through hyperlink scanning and the sandboxing of attachments, significantly reducing the risk of email-based threats.


  • Network Security: Cisco SIG, SIEM/SOC, and Auvik

    • Web Content Filtering blocks access to malicious websites and enforces corporate acceptable internet use policies.

    • SIEM + Network Monitoring streamlines log and event data to scale attack detection and response.


  • Endpoint Security: Windows Defender and Intune

    • NextGen Endpoint Protection utilizes advanced antivirus software and behavior-based analytics to safeguard corporate devices from viruses, malware, ransomware, and zero-day vulnerabilities. Mobile Device Management (MDM) secures mobile devices used within your organization.

    • Laptops and workstations are fortified by implementing stringent hardening measures, such as restricting administrative rights for end users and enforcing firewall policies, among other security best practices. These measures collectively form a robust defense against a wide array of cyber threats, reflecting an unwavering commitment to security.

    • Weekly endpoint vulnerability scans are conducted to discover vulnerabilities and facilitate timely remediation.


  • Application and Data Security: Microsoft Authenticator and Entra ID SSO

    • Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) enhances user authentication with multiple verification methods to reinforce application security. Single Sign-On (SSO) allows users to access multiple applications with a single set of credentials to simplify secure access.

    • Prioritizing security by employing a suite of advanced settings ensures the integrity and confidentiality of client systems. SSO is utilized extensively, enhancing user convenience while maintaining security. Conditional Access (CA) policies are rigorously applied, permitting SSO logins only from devices that are managed and secured, with MFA being a mandatory requirement.


  • Mission Critical Assets: AFI.ai and DR

    • Cloud Backups and Email Continuity regularly back up critical data to prevent data loss in case of an incident.

    • Disaster Recovery, High Availability, and ISP redundancy solutions are in place to mitigate lost productivity in the event of an outage.


  • Putting It All Together: Cavelo

    • The Cavelo Cyber Asset Attack Surface Management (CAASM) platform continuously identifies sensitive data and vulnerabilities across digital assets and provides a unified view of the attack surface by tracking data locations, usage, and access in a centralized location within the Cavelo console. Cavelo helps businesses proactively reduce cybersecurity risk and achieve compliance with automated data discovery, classification, and reporting.


In an increasingly complex digital landscape, staying ahead of cyber threats is more important than ever. With the Cyber Pack, MSP XYZ offers a dynamic, multi-layered defense strategy that not only protects your assets but also anticipates and mitigates emerging risks. By continuously evolving and adapting to the ever-changing threat landscape, you can ensure that your organization remains secure, resilient, and prepared for whatever challenges lie ahead. Investing in proactive, comprehensive cybersecurity is no longer optional, but essential for safeguarding your future.
