Identify your business’s weak spots before a hacker does.

Small businesses are often prime targets not because they have the most data, but because their defenses are often weaker. Hackers often exploit: unpatched systems, weak authentication, misconfigured remote access, and poor backup processes. This service gives you a clear security snapshot, showing you where vulnerabilities are — before they become costly problems.

​What We Check

Here are the elements we examine to give you a full picture of your cybersecurity health:
​

• Endpoint Protection & EDR Coverage – Are you protected on laptops, desktops, servers with up-to-date antivirus or endpoint detection & response?
• System Updates & Patch Compliance – Are all systems (OS, software/apps, firmware) current? Missing patches are one of the top causes of data breaches.
• Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) – Are critical systems protected with MFA (email, remote access, admin tools)?
• User Privileges & Account Role Management – Do users only have access they need? Are administrative permissions tightly managed?
• Remote Access Security – VPN or remote desktop tools: secure setups? Encrypted connections? Limited access?
• Backup Strategy & Restoration Readiness – Are backups configured properly? Are they tested? Is there offsite/cloud backup? Can data be restored fast?
• Network Perimeter Security – Router, firewall strength; are default passwords changed? Are guest / untrusted networks isolated?

​What You’ll Receive

When you order the Baseline Check, you’ll get:
​

• A clear, plain-language findings report identifying your strongest points and weakest areas.
• Prioritized recommendations: quick wins (low cost / immediate impact) and longer-term investments.
• Optional implementation guidance if you want help executing the fixes.
• A follow-up check-in after changes to ensure things are locked down.

Who Benefits Most from This Check

This service is especially worthwhile if you are:
​

• Medical or dental clinics handling protected data
• Law firms, accounting shops, real estate agencies with client data
• Small businesses or retailers lacking in-house IT security expertise
• Organizations needing compliance (HIPAA, PCI, etc.) or wanting to reduce risk exposure

Frequently Asked Questions

 How long does the Baseline Check take?

Usually 1-2 business days depending on business size and scope. More complex setups or many endpoints may need extra time.

What is the cost? Is it affordable for a small business?

It’s priced to be cost-effective: enough depth to be helpful, without the cost of a full penetration test. We provide clear pricing before you commit.

Can businesses outside Great Falls use this service?

Absolutely. Remote services are available. If onsite verification or audits are needed, travel costs may apply.

After the report, do you assist with implementing the remediation?

Yes—if you want, we offer that help. We can execute the recommendations, or support your team in doing so.
