Multi-Layered Protection for Your Business
At CMIT Solutions of Chicago Northwest, we know that a cyberattack can take many forms, from an infected email to a compromised admin account. Your defenses need to be just as layered, so that if one layer misses the attack, another can identify and stop it.
We build cybersecurity strategies that cover every angle: email security, endpoint protection, network monitoring, access controls, and employee training. Our recommended solutions are backed by a Security Operations Center that operates 24/7 to identify threats and perform triage and remediation.
Whether you need to meet compliance requirements like HIPAA, PCI, or GDPR, or simply want to know your data is protected, we partner with you to deliver a security strategy tailored to your industry and your business.

What We Protect You Against
Cyberthreats are constantly evolving. Here's how CMIT Solutions of Chicago Northwest keeps your business protected.
Phishing Attacks
Anti-phishing technologies use AI to detect phishing emails and keep them out of your team's inboxes before anyone clicks a malicious link.
Ransomware
We combine endpoint detection, backup verification, and 24/7 monitoring to prevent ransomware from locking down your systems and holding your data hostage.
Unauthorized Access
Stolen credentials granting unauthorized access is one of the most dangerous exploits. We combine multi-factor authentication, dark web monitoring, and SIEM to guard against it.
Malware and Viruses
Automated monitoring identifies malware on computers and mobile devices, quarantines infected systems, and remediates threats before they spread across your network.
Malicious Websites
DNS filtering sifts out suspicious URLs to prevent your team from mistakenly visiting dangerous sites that could compromise your systems.
Cloud Vulnerabilities
We bring together policy and device management across your business to ensure secure access to your cloud services, wherever your team works from.
Don't Wait for a Breach to Take Action
Cyberthreats are relentless. Your defenses need to be equally determined. Let us assess your current security posture and close the gaps.
Cybersecurity Solutions for Your Business
Our cybersecurity services are centered on a multi-layered approach, so your business is covered from top to bottom.
Email Security
The best way to secure your team's email from cyberthreats is to keep infected emails out of their inbox. Our email security suite detects problem emails and quarantines them to keep your users and your company safe.
Firewall Solutions
Prevent unauthorized access to your network with enterprise-grade firewall solutions that monitor traffic and block threats before they reach your systems.
Multi-Factor Authentication
Prevent hackers with stolen credentials from accessing your business data and systems by enabling multiple forms of identification to verify authorized users.
Endpoint Detection and Response
Protect end-user devices connected to your network with automated monitoring that identifies malware on computers and mobile devices and quarantines infected systems.
SIEM/SOC Monitoring
Security Information and Event Management analyzes activity across multiple sources to provide real-time insight into potential threats. Combined with our Security Operations Center, you have a powerful team protecting your business 24/7.
Security Awareness Training
Easy-to-administer training programs keep your staff cyber savvy. We offer up-to-date content and online training with detailed reporting so you can manage an effective security program.
Encryption
Encryption protects data and devices by making them readable only after providing the correct username, password, PIN, or biometric login.
Single Sign-On
SSO streamlines the login process and allows employees to use one entryway for all business applications and data access, reducing password fatigue and improving security.
Cybersecurity Insurance
Key to surviving an incident is the financial support insurance provides. Most policies require specific classes of cybersecurity preparedness either before you can obtain insurance at all, or in order to collect, should an incident occur. We can help ensure your business is insurance-ready, and even help you obtain cybersecurity insurance.
BC/DR Preparedness
All regulated organizations are required to have Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery plans in place and reviewed at least annually. We can help you author and maintain those plans, as well as implement and test the related tools. The value of this is much higher than just the value of being compliant. Should a cybersecurity incident occur, your organization is much more likely to survive if there are well-crafted and tested plans, procedures, and technologies in place.
