Business Cybersecurity for Southern Idaho
Your cyber insurance carrier wants MFA, EDR, security awareness training, and tested backups. Your industry has compliance requirements. Your employees keep clicking on suspicious emails. Total Techs handles all of it — practical, layered cybersecurity that actually works for small and mid-sized businesses.
Cybersecurity Built for Businesses That Can’t Afford a Breach
Ransomware doesn’t care if you’re a 10-person dental office or a 200-person manufacturer. Most attacks aren’t targeted — they’re opportunistic. Phishing emails. Compromised passwords. Outdated software. The attackers find whoever left the door open.
Our job is to close those doors. Multi-factor authentication so stolen passwords can’t be used. Endpoint detection that catches malware before it spreads. Security awareness training that teaches your team to spot phishing. Tested backups that work even after ransomware. And documentation that satisfies your cyber insurance carrier and any compliance requirements.
We deploy practical, layered security for businesses across Southern Idaho. Not enterprise complexity, not bare-minimum checkbox security — the right controls for your size and risk level.

What You Get
Multi-Factor Authentication
Required by virtually every cyber insurance policy. We deploy MFA across email, VPN, and critical applications — properly, so users actually use it.
Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR)
Modern protection that goes beyond antivirus. Detects unusual behavior on endpoints and isolates threats before they spread.
Security Awareness Training
Your employees are your last line of defense. We deploy regular phishing simulations and training so they spot attacks instead of falling for them.
Email Security
Advanced filtering catches phishing, malicious attachments, and business email compromise attempts before they reach inboxes.
Ransomware-Resistant Backup
Backups that can’t be encrypted by ransomware. Cloud-based, immutable, regularly tested. When (not if) something goes wrong, we restore.
Compliance Documentation
HIPAA, PCI, cyber insurance questionnaires — we provide the documentation showing your controls are in place and tested.
How It Works
Security Assessment
Free 1-hour assessment. We identify your gaps, your risk level, and what your insurance/compliance actually requires.
Prioritized Plan
Not everything has to happen at once. We build a 90-day plan that closes the biggest gaps first.
Deploy & Train
We deploy the controls, configure them properly, and train your team. Done right the first time.
Monitor & Improve
Ongoing monitoring, monthly reports, quarterly reviews. Security isn’t a one-time project.
Common Questions
QOur cyber insurance is asking about security controls — can you help?
Yes — this is one of the most common reasons businesses call us. Insurers want MFA, EDR, security training, tested backups, and patching documented. We implement what you’re missing and provide the documentation for your renewal questionnaire.
QWhat does business cybersecurity cost?
It depends on the size of your business and what’s already in place. As a rough range: standalone cybersecurity services run $20-$60 per user per month for the controls we listed. As part of full managed IT, often less per-user because it’s bundled.
QAre we too small to be a target?
Unfortunately no. Most attacks are opportunistic, not targeted. Small businesses are often more attractive targets because they’re less likely to have proper security in place. The good news: layered security like ours dramatically reduces your risk.
QWhat if we already have antivirus?
Traditional antivirus isn’t enough anymore. Modern attacks use techniques that AV can’t detect. EDR (endpoint detection and response) replaces or augments antivirus with behavior-based detection that catches new threats.
QWhat happens if we get hit with ransomware anyway?
Our layered approach significantly reduces the chance. But if it happens, we have an incident response plan: isolate the infection, restore from clean backups, investigate the entry point, document for insurance. Most managed IT clients are back to operation within hours, not weeks.
