Microsoft 365 Assume-breach methodology CompTIA A+ ISC2 Certified in Cybersecurity (CC) Michigan-based · Remote-first

Find your starting point

Where does your business stand today?

Two common situations, two clear paths. Either way, we start with the same free assessment.

No internal IT

You are running on whoever happens to be most technical, plus a patchwork of tools. You need someone to own IT end to end — helpdesk, backups, patching, and security — so the business stops being one bad day away from a problem.

See managed IT plans

Have IT, need security

Your systems run, but nobody is watching for the attack. You want monitoring, tested backups, incident response, and plain-English risk reporting layered on top of what you already have — without ripping it all out.

The reality

Most breaches start with a person, not a firewall

The question is not whether someone will try the door. It is whether you are prepared for the moment they do.

68% of breaches involve a non-malicious human element Verizon DBIR 2024
<10 days median time to exploit a newly disclosed vulnerability Mandiant M-Trends 2024
62% of breaches studied came through the supply chain or a partner Verizon DBIR 2024

So we assume breach. Instead of pretending an attack will never reach you, we build for the day it does — continuous monitoring, automated response on trigger, and a tested path back to normal. Prevention still matters; readiness is what keeps a bad hour from becoming a bad month.

Our methodology

A loop that runs whether or not anything is wrong

Security is not a one-time project. It is a cycle we keep turning on your behalf.

Prepare

Harden accounts, patch, back up, and stand up monitoring before anything happens.

Detect

Coeus Watchtower watches for the signals of an attack and alerts in real time.

Respond

Automated actions on trigger — like rotating a compromised password — plus a human on the case.

Recover

Restore from tested backups, confirm clean, and feed lessons back into Prepare.

What we do

One team for the whole stack — kept and defended

Capabilities we run today, framed as what we do, not what we will promise.

Coeus Watchtower — Security Monitoring

Continuous monitoring with automated alerting straight into Microsoft Teams, and automated password rotation on trigger. You see the same alert card we do, in plain language, the moment something looks wrong.

Managed IT & Helpdesk

A cloud helpdesk with branded email, day-to-day support, patching, and backup — the routine kept running so your people can work.

Network & Security Audit

A clear-eyed review of your environment with plain-English findings and honest risk ratings — no jargon wall, no scare tactics.

Microsoft 365 Automation

M365 administered and automated — onboarding, offboarding, and policy handled for you.

Incident Response

First-responder action when something fires — contain, investigate, and walk you through it.

Risk Reporting

Recurring reviews that translate technical posture into decisions you can actually make.

What the work looks like

Real artifacts, illustrative data

This is the kind of output you receive — an audit finding and a live helpdesk queue. Sample data shown for privacy.

No MFA on admin accounts

High
Finding

Two administrator accounts can sign in with a password alone. A single leaked or guessed password would hand an attacker full control.

Recommendation

Enforce multi-factor authentication on all admin accounts and block legacy sign-in protocols. Estimated effort: under one hour.
