Managed cybersecurity in Central Texas

Antivirus compares files against a list of known threats and stops what it recognizes. EDR — endpoint detection and response — watches how programs behave, so it catches the attacks built to slip past antivirus: a process quietly encrypting files, a login that should not exist, a foothold planted for later. That distinction is why cyber-insurance carriers now require EDR or MDR on endpoints, not just antivirus. IronPoint deploys managed EDR on every machine, backed by Huntress analysts.

The Huntress Security Operations Center is staffed around the clock. When an alert fires, their analysts investigate it — and if it is a real threat, they can isolate the infected machine immediately so it cannot spread across your network. IronPoint follows up to clean up, close the hole the attacker used, and explain what happened in plain English. You get a contained incident and a straight answer, not an alarm you have to interpret yourself.

That checklist is exactly what this service is built around. Carriers now commonly require EDR or MDR on every endpoint, enforced MFA, and backups that are actually tested — all standard parts of our stack. We will also sit down with your renewal questionnaire and answer it line by line, honestly, because inaccurate answers on a cyber-insurance application are one of the surest ways to get a claim denied when you need the payout most.

Ask the people who price the risk. Insurers would not require EDR, MFA, and tested backups from small businesses if small businesses were not filing claims. Regulators agree: the FTC Safeguards Rule requires tax preparers to maintain a written security plan, and HHS OCR actively enforces HIPAA risk-analysis failures against small practices. Attackers automate their searches — they scan for open doors, not big names, and a small office with thin defenses is an easy door.

Fast. The EDR agent deploys remotely through our management tools, so for a typical office of five to fifty people, endpoint protection is usually running within days of onboarding — no site visit needed for most machines. Email security, MFA enforcement, and awareness training phase in over the first few weeks, sequenced so nothing disrupts your team's workday. You get a written rollout plan before anything is touched.

Security is built into every IronPoint managed IT plan — $95 to $200 per user per month — rather than sold as a bolt-on. If you want a deep dive first, the Security & AI Audit is $750, credited toward onboarding if you move forward: a documented review of where you actually stand, with a prioritized fix list you keep either way. The initial assessment is free and comes with no obligation.
