Onboarding & hardening

Ongoing defense & guidance
We monitor, maintain, and report. You get regular check‑ins, simple summaries, and a partner you can call when something feels off.
Real Businesses. Real Results.
You don’t need a full-time cybersecurity team to meet high standards. Here’s how two very different businesses are using Vanguard Watch to protect what matters most.
CASE STUDY
Government Contractor Improves SPRS Score
A small defense contractor needed to meet CMMC and NIST 800-171 requirements to stay eligible for future federal contracts. With no internal security team and tight compliance deadlines, they turned to Vanguard Watch.
We handled the onboarding, provided monthly security awareness training, implemented ongoing log monitoring, and helped improve documentation around access control and incident response. Within weeks, they increased their SPRS score and reduced compliance risk, without hiring new staff or buying multiple tools.
CASE STUDY
Small Business Gains Cyber Peace of Mind
A local service business with 10 employees knew cybersecurity was important, but didn’t have the personnel or bandwidth to handle it. They weren’t chasing contracts, just trying to avoid becoming the next ransomware headline.
With the Cyber Defense Suite, we rolled out hands-free training for their staff, set up monitoring on their Microsoft 365 accounts, and began sending simple monthly reports. The business owner now feels confident they’re protected and supported, even without technical expertise on staff.
