We Know Security
We're a security first company, and it flows through everything we do. When we say “we know security” we really mean it. This goes beyond installing endpoint protection or outsourcing security expertise. We've really built a great, multifaceted team and are getting industry-wide recognition for delivering on our security promise. We cater to our clients’ needs at every turn of their security and compliance journey.
Craig Sixta
Element CTO and Security and Compliance Services Lead
We are dedicated to cybersecurity.
Our unrelenting focus and expertise in cybersecurity keep our clients operating securely with greater peace of mind. Our experience, depth, and vision have driven us to become certified industry leaders.
We know compliance. Businesses are burdened with increasing compliance requirements that they either do not fully comprehend or have the bandwidth to handle. Our Element Security team is well-versed in all these requirements and understands how they will impact your business. Robust security policies and procedures pave the way for sound compliance and a strong security posture.
Security Audits & Assessments
We conduct a comprehensive risk assessment to identify and quantify the risks to your businesses’ information assets. We will diagnose technical vulnerabilities and determine how best to mitigate those risks to keep your information safe.
Managed IT Security Services
We use a number of industry-leading tools and reporting capabilities to protect your network and provide security monitoring and remediation. We deliver quarterly reports which outline business health while providing proactive threat detection, analysis, and an entire toolkit of security processes that follow industry best practices. Here are some options:
“We’ve worked with Element for about four years, starting with an initial security assessment. They are always responsive in situations ranging from routine questions to a serious emergency. Technical knowledge is also exceptional, yet they always seem to be able to explain things in easy-to-understand terms. I have recommended Element to clients and other business partners in the past and would continue to do so. Most importantly to me, the team at Element has earned my trust, which is absolutely essential in a cybersecurity partner.”
Dave Wilde, Barr Engineering Co.
Remote Security
These days remote and hybrid working realities go hand-in-hand with new security challenges. Craig Sixta and his team of security experts routinely work with businesses on testing home office security setups including fortifying your ‘WFH’ environment. Join Craig in his “Work from Home” video series covering everything from password management to multi-factor authentication to secure video conferencing.
Cybersecurity Awareness
“You don’t know what you don’t know.”
Element has made it our mission to educate clients on all aspects of security threats, including malware, ransomware, and other security-related scams threatening business continuity. Employee awareness of threats and scams is the primary component of maintaining a strong layer of security, therefore, we deliver a multi-phase approach to cybersecurity education through virtual, easily consumable training, security testing, and continued education through Element University. Most clients add cybersecurity awareness as part of their new employee onboarding experience giving them critical security information and tools they can rely on throughout their tenure.
Cybersecurity Audit
and Technology Review
Many organizations are looking to protect their networks and systems from external threats. While the investments in firewalls, spam filtering, and anti-virus protection is a good start, it just isn’t enough. These tools help protect systems to varying degrees, but there are other threats and vulnerabilities that need to be addressed. That’s where Element’s skilled team of security professionals comes in (click to go to separate CATR page).
“Craig is an expert in cybersecurity. His training is engaging, and he makes the content understandable which is not an easy feat with a room full of lawyers. Craig’s willingness to answer questions and talk through security with us has far exceeded expectations. Don’t think twice, hire Element.”
