About SECaaS solutions

If you have an email account via Gmail, Hotmail or Yahoo, then you are using SaaS (Software as a Service). Security as a Service is the security-centric application of SaaS. Many people and firms today are running antivirus systems like Malwarebytes or McAfee on their devices, which are good examples of basic Security as a Service.
 
The fundamental difference this makes is that security is delivered “as a service” as compared to legacy on-premise security solutions. The as-a-service model, made possible by the advent of the cloud, provides you with an IT/network security platform without the need to invest in developing, managing and maintaining your own infrastructure.
 
Depending on your security needs and compliance requirements, there are many types of Security as a Service: threat monitoring and attack defence, data loss prevention, identity and access management, security assessment and auditing, and more.

Home Office Technology for a Productive Remote Workforce

Like most business owners, you were likely caught off guard in early 2020 with the pandemic. You and your employees were suddenly scuttled off to your homes. You made quick decisions to keep your business afloat while taking care of your employees and customers.
 
Now, with the experience of running your business remotely, you may be more open to permanent remote work, either full-time or a hybrid approach.
 
Remote work gives your employees a more flexible schedule. It also leads to happier and more productive employees. With those valuable lessons on what works and what doesn’t, it’s now time to invest in you

7 Remote Work Technical Solutions to Adopt for Success Now

Virtual Private Networks

Your employees need a secure method of connecting to resources. Our engineers can implement a robust VPN that’ll secure your data and provide the performance your team needs. If you need more security, consider a Zero Trust authentication model.

Portals

If your company uses internet portals, like an intranet, make those web-facing. Your team can then access the information while on the go without logging in via the VPN. Our team can help with this transition, so your data is both accessible and secure.

Virtual Desktops

Chances are that some of your employees are using personal devices to connect to their office desktops. Instead of giving everyone new computers, invest in a virtual desktop environment (on your own server or in the cloud). A VDI offers a higher level of security since all the computing takes place on your servers. It’s also scalable. You can adjust the desktop power and add more capacity if needed. CarefreeIT‘s virtualization engineers can custom design a solution for you.

Video Conferencing

Video meetings are a fact of life now. Plenty of solutions exist but choosing the right one can be confusing. Our team will ensure the solution has the features and security your business needs.

Collaboration Software

Your team often works together on projects to build your business and take care of your customers. With collaboration software, they can keep doing so easily. Whiteboard applications and shared documents let team members work on the same file together. And when used with video conferencing, it can offer an in-office feel. Our team can suggest a collaboration solution that fits your budget and your needs.

Chat

If your company wasn’t using chat pre-pandemic, you probably are now. Moving from a free chat to a paid solution will make administration much easier. It’ll also offer log retention in case your business is subject to compliance regulations. CarefreeIT‘s communications team can bundle chat with other solutions to enhance your team’s productivity while saving you money!

Phones

It’s important that customers and partners can reach your business. With a remote workforce, a phone solution can be challenging. Our team can help you establish an IP-based solution with your choice of remote headsets, softphones and custom forwarding solutions to mobile devices.

Why Choose CarefreeIT?

CarefreeIT was the first IT managed services provider (MSP) company in Ontario to develop and market a comprehensive cybersecurity bundle specifically targeted to the small-to-medium-sized business (SMB) market. We realized early on that SMBs were being targeted by hackers, were vulnerable, and were getting compromised.

The TPP provides 24x7x365 cybersecurity expert “live eyes” on your network. It also provides education for your team, a set of policies for you to implement, and dark web scanning on your behalf. It’s designed and delivered by certified cybersecurity experts. If the security of your systems and data are essential to your business, the TPP gives you the peace of mind to sleep well at night knowing your IT, your valuable data, and your reputation are protected.
