Cybersecurity Services for NH Businesses

Every small-to-mid-sized business in New Hampshire faces the same threat landscape as Fortune 500 companies — ransomware gangs don’t check your employee count before launching an attack. As the trusted managed IT partner for businesses across Massachusetts and New Hampshire, LG Tech MSP delivers enterprise-grade cybersecurity services designed specifically for businesses with 5 to 300 employees. We protect your operations, your data, and your reputation with layered defenses that stop threats before they become disasters.

Why Cybersecurity Matters More Than Ever

The statistics are sobering. More than 60% of small businesses that suffer a major cyberattack close their doors within six months. Ransomware criminals now specifically target companies they believe can’t afford robust defenses — and they’re betting you’ll pay to get your data back rather than lose weeks of productivity.

Your business faces threats from multiple directions:

• Ransomware attacks that encrypt your files and demand payment for the decryption key
• Phishing emails designed to steal credentials or trick employees into transferring money
• Business email compromise where attackers impersonate executives or vendors
• Credential theft that gives criminals access to your systems and customer data
• Supply chain attacks that exploit trusted vendor relationships
• Insider threats from careless or malicious employees

The cost of a breach extends far beyond ransom payments. You face potential regulatory fines, legal liability, notification costs, forensic investigation fees, lost productivity, damaged customer relationships, and reputational harm that takes years to repair. For businesses in regulated industries, a data breach can mean the loss of certifications required to operate.

Effective cybersecurity isn’t a product you buy once — it’s an ongoing practice that combines technology, processes, and people. LG Tech MSP brings all three together in a comprehensive security program tailored to your business needs and budget constraints.

Our Layered Approach to Business Cybersecurity

Security works best when multiple defensive layers protect your business. If one control fails, others are in place to catch threats that slip through. We build security programs around the principle of defense in depth, ensuring no single point of failure can compromise your entire operation.

Endpoint Protection

Every laptop, desktop, server, and mobile device represents a potential entry point for attackers. Our endpoint protection strategy combines next-generation antivirus, behavioral analysis, and automated threat response to detect and block malware before it executes. Unlike legacy antivirus that only catches known threats, modern endpoint protection identifies suspicious behavior patterns that indicate ransomware, zero-day exploits, and advanced persistent threats.

We deploy endpoint protection across your entire device fleet — Windows workstations, servers, and mobile devices — with centralized management that ensures consistent policy enforcement. When a threat is detected, the system automatically isolates the affected device to prevent lateral movement while our team investigates and remediates the issue.

Email Security and Anti-Phishing

Email remains the primary attack vector for cybercriminals. More than 90% of successful breaches start with a phishing email that tricks an employee into clicking a malicious link or downloading an infected attachment. Our email security services add multiple layers of protection beyond your basic spam filter:

• Advanced threat protection that sandboxes suspicious attachments in an isolated environment before delivery
• URL rewriting that checks links at click-time, not just at delivery, catching sites that turn malicious after the email arrives
• Impersonation detection that identifies emails pretending to come from executives, trusted vendors, or government agencies
• Domain spoofing prevention using authentication protocols that verify sender identity
• Business email compromise protection that flags unusual requests for wire transfers or credential sharing

We configure email security to balance protection with productivity — aggressive enough to stop threats, but smart enough to avoid burying your team in false positives.

Security Awareness Training

Technology alone can’t stop every attack. Your employees are both your greatest vulnerability and your strongest defense, depending on their training. Our security awareness program transforms your team from potential victims into active participants in your security posture.

We provide ongoing training that covers:

• Recognizing phishing emails and social engineering tactics
• Creating and managing strong, unique passwords
• Identifying suspicious links and attachments
• Reporting security incidents promptly
• Safe browsing practices and download policies
• Physical security and clean desk protocols
• Mobile device security and public WiFi risks

Training isn’t a one-time event. We conduct simulated phishing campaigns throughout the year to test employee vigilance and identify individuals who need additional coaching. These exercises use realistic scenarios based on current attack trends, helping your team recognize threats they’ll actually encounter. When someone clicks a simulated phishing link, they receive immediate, targeted training that reinforces proper behavior.

Identity and Access Management

Stolen credentials represent one of the fastest-growing attack vectors. Once criminals have a valid username and password, they can access your systems as a legitimate user, bypassing many traditional security controls. Our identity and access management services ensure the right people have the right access — and nobody else does.

Multi-factor authentication (MFA) adds a critical second layer beyond passwords. Even if credentials are compromised, attackers can’t log in without the second factor — typically a code from a smartphone app, a text message, or a hardware token. We implement MFA across all critical systems: email, remote access, cloud applications, administrative accounts, and financial systems.

We also enforce strong password policies with length requirements, complexity rules, and breach detection that alerts users when their credentials appear in known data dumps. For businesses ready to move beyond passwords entirely, we can implement passwordless authentication using biometrics or hardware keys.

Proper access controls follow the principle of least privilege — users receive only the permissions they need to do their jobs, nothing more. We regularly review access rights, removing permissions when employees change roles and deactivating accounts promptly when people leave the organization.

Backup and Disaster Recovery

When prevention fails, recovery becomes critical. Comprehensive backup and disaster recovery planning ensures your business can survive a ransomware attack, hardware failure, natural disaster, or human error without catastrophic data loss.

Our backup strategy follows the 3-2-1 rule: three copies of your data, on two different types of media, with one copy stored offsite. We implement both on-site backup for fast recovery of individual files and cloud-based backup for major disaster scenarios. Backup jobs run automatically according to schedules that balance protection with performance impact.

But backups are worthless if they don’t work when you need them. We regularly test restore procedures to verify data integrity and measure recovery time. You’ll know exactly how long it takes to get critical systems back online, enabling realistic business continuity planning.

For businesses that can’t tolerate downtime, we implement high-availability solutions that maintain operations even when primary systems fail. This includes redundant servers, failover capabilities, and replication strategies tailored to your recovery time objectives.

Continuous Security Monitoring

Threats don’t wait for business hours. Our infrastructure undergoes 24/7 monitoring that watches for security events requiring immediate attention. Automated systems track authentication attempts, configuration changes, network traffic patterns, and system health indicators around the clock.

When monitoring systems detect anomalies — unusual login patterns, unexpected network traffic, unauthorized configuration changes, or signs of malware activity — alerts route to our team for investigation. This continuous visibility enables rapid response to emerging threats before they escalate into full-blown incidents.

We provide regular security reports that translate technical findings into business context. You’ll understand your security posture, recent threat activity, remediation actions, and recommendations for improving defenses.

Incident Response

Despite best efforts, some incidents will occur. When they do, response speed and coordination determine the extent of damage. Our incident response services provide a structured approach to containing, investigating, and recovering from security events.

The incident response process includes:

• Detection and analysis to determine the nature and scope of the incident
• Containment to prevent further damage and limit spread
• Eradication to remove the threat from your environment
• Recovery to restore normal operations safely
• Post-incident review to identify lessons learned and prevent recurrence

We maintain detailed incident response documentation that guides action during high-stress situations. Your team knows who to contact, what information to gather, and what decisions need executive approval. This preparation dramatically reduces response time and helps avoid costly mistakes made in panic.

Compliance Support for Regulated Industries

Many businesses face regulatory requirements that mandate specific security controls. LG Tech MSP helps organizations in healthcare, government contracting, finance, and other regulated industries meet their compliance obligations while building genuinely effective security programs.

HIPAA Compliance for Healthcare

Medical practices, dental offices, healthcare providers, and business associates handling protected health information must comply with HIPAA security requirements. We help healthcare organizations implement required safeguards including:

• Access controls and user authentication
• Encryption for data at rest and in transit
• Audit logging and monitoring
• Security awareness training
• Risk assessments and security documentation
• Business associate agreements
• Breach notification procedures

Our approach focuses on practical implementation that protects patient privacy while supporting efficient clinical workflows. We work with healthcare-specific applications and understand the unique technology challenges medical practices face.

CMMC and NIST 800-171 for Defense Contractors

Companies working with the Department of Defense must demonstrate compliance with Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification requirements to protect Controlled Unclassified Information. We help contractors implement the NIST 800-171 controls underlying CMMC certification:

• Network segmentation isolating CUI systems
• Multi-factor authentication for all users
• Encryption of CUI at rest and in transit
• Incident response and reporting procedures
• Security assessment and continuous monitoring
• Configuration management and change control
• Personnel security and background checks

We provide technical implementation, policy development, and documentation support that prepares contractors for third-party assessment. Our team stays current with evolving CMMC requirements and helps you navigate the certification process.

Other Regulatory Frameworks

We also support compliance with:

• PCI DSS for businesses processing credit card payments
• GLBA for financial services companies
• State data breach notification laws across all 50 states
• SOC 2 for service providers demonstrating security controls to customers
• ISO 27001 for organizations seeking information security management certification

Compliance frameworks provide valuable guidance, but checkbox compliance doesn’t equal security. We help you implement controls that both satisfy auditors and genuinely reduce risk to your business.
