Velocigo is a SOC 2 certified organization — we’ve been through the audits, controls, and continuous monitoring we help our clients prepare for. That firsthand experience is the difference between security advice that looks good on paper and security programs that survive contact with a real audit or a real attacker.

Risk Assessments & Gap Analysis. A structured review of your environment against recognized frameworks (NIST CSF, CIS Controls), delivered as a prioritized, plain-English roadmap — not a 90-page PDF nobody reads.

Compliance Readiness. SOC 2, HIPAA, and cyber-insurance questionnaire preparation. We map your current controls to requirements, close the gaps, and get you audit-ready.

Managed Security. Endpoint detection and response, email security, patch management, and 24/7 monitoring layered onto your existing IT — or bundled with our managed services.

Security Awareness Training. Your people are the front line. Phishing simulation and short, recurring training that measurably reduces click rates.

Incident Response Planning. A tested plan for the worst day: who does what, in what order, with what communications — before you need it.

1. Back up everything that matters

• Maintain offsite backups of all important systems.

2. Lock down the network perimeter

• Eliminate or limit the number of open firewall ports.
• Absolutely no RDP or SMB exposed to the internet (ports 3389 and 445 should never be open).
• Put every externally facing service and website behind HTTPS and a web application firewall (WAF).
• Require VPN with MFA to reach network assets from outside.

Not sure what your firewall is actually exposing? A Velocigo firewall audit maps every open port and rule and shows you exactly what to close. Request a firewall audit →

3. Enforce strong identity and access

• Use multi-factor authentication (MFA) wherever possible.
• Require MFA on all cloud accounts (Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace).
• Audit and reduce the number of accounts; enforce least privilege.
• No day-to-day account should hold domain admin privileges.
• Review the user list proactively with HR and management.
• Require strong, unique 12+ character passphrases that don’t expire and are never reused on outside services.
• Enforce account lockout (lock after more than 3 failed attempts within 2 minutes).

4. Patch and retire aging systems

• Patch all servers and systems on a regular schedule.
• Retire out-of-date, end-of-life (EOL) operating systems and software.

5. Train the human layer

• Run an ongoing cybersecurity awareness and phishing-simulation program.

6. Secure email

• Implement advanced email filtering (Avanan, Proofpoint, or Microsoft Defender for Office 365).
• Configure SPF, DMARC, and DKIM.
• Add impersonation / business-email-compromise detection.

We implement and tune email security from the filter down to your DNS records. Get your email locked down →

7. Protect every endpoint

• Run modern antivirus with endpoint detection and response (EDR) on every device.
