How much does cybersecurity cost for a small company?
It does not appear as a separate line on the invoice, because we do not sell it separately. It sits inside the IT support subscription, and the cost depends on how many users you have, how many locations, how many servers, and whether you already have an internal team.
What we can say before any conversation: at a company of 30 people, full security costs less than one day of stopped work. You get the exact figure at the free assessment, along with what you already have and no longer need to pay for.
We already have antivirus. Why would we need anything else?
Because antivirus looks at files, and the attacks that cause damage in Romania no longer use files. An attacker who signs in with a stolen password and uses the programs already on the computer triggers nothing.
The National Cyber Security Directorate reported a 353% rise in compromised accounts in a single year. None of those cases was stopped by antivirus, because there was nothing for it to stop.
What does it mean that security is included?
That you cannot buy managed IT from us without it. There is no basic package without protection and a paid security add-on. All five layers above come at the same price, for every client.
The reason is simple: a company we run that gets attacked becomes our problem, whatever the contract says.
What happens if we are attacked anyway?
The attack is flagged within minutes, the affected computer is isolated automatically, and an analyst checks whether it spread. We clean the machine, reconnect it and get your people back to work.
The next day you receive a written report: how they got in, what they touched, what we changed. We do not promise you will never be attacked. We promise you will not hear about it from a client, three weeks later.
Is cybersecurity mandatory under NIS2?
It depends on the sector you operate in and on the size of the group your company belongs to. If NIS2 applies to you, security measures stop being a choice, and accountability sits with management, not with the IT department.

How long until we are protected?
The first two layers go in within days, because they are installed on devices. The tuning, that is establishing what normal looks like at your company so machines are not isolated for nothing, takes the first month and is adjusted as we go.
Protection for Microsoft 365 accounts is switched on in the same week, if the environment is already yours.
We already have an IT person. Does this still make sense?
It does, and it is the most common case. Your IT person cannot stay awake at three in the morning, and should not have to. We take over monitoring and incident response, and they stay on the projects that matter to the company.
The model is called co-managed IT and it was built for exactly this situation.
