Cybersecurity for Boston

Reasonable safeguards, documented and maintained.

Boston’s economy runs on professional services, healthcare, higher education, financial services and the life sciences cluster that stretches from Kendall Square to the Seaport, with a dense base of small and midsize firms in the Financial District, Back Bay and the suburbs along Route 128.

Most Boston businesses do not need an enterprise security program. They need the controls that stop the common attacks, email compromise, stolen passwords and ransomware, put in place properly, documented and kept current. EVERNET starts with a risk assessment, fixes the gaps in priority order and keeps the safeguards running as part of a managed agreement.

Where we start

A risk assessment of identities, email, devices, backups and vendors, with findings ranked by likelihood and impact.

What protection covers

Email threat protection, endpoint detection and response, multifactor authentication, password management, patching and security awareness training.

Compliance preparation

Documented policies and technical evidence for insurance questionnaires, client security reviews and frameworks such as HIPAA, CMMC or NIST.

Cybersecurity is usually delivered alongside managed IT; see cybersecurity services for the full scope, or explore pricing.

Doing business in Boston

Boston firms handle a lot of other people’s data. Law and accounting firms in the Financial District and Back Bay hold client financial records, practices and research groups near the Longwood Medical Area handle patient and study data, and Seaport startups keep customer data in the cloud from day one. When those records include personal information about Massachusetts residents, the state’s data security regulation, 201 CMR 17.00, requires a written information security program with encryption, access controls, training and vendor oversight.

Client security questionnaires are often where Boston firms feel this first. Larger clients, hospitals and insurers ask for proof of multifactor authentication, endpoint detection, backups and a tested incident plan before they sign or renew. We help you answer with evidence rather than promises. If something does go wrong, Chapter 93H of the Massachusetts General Laws sets out who must be told: the Attorney General, the Office of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation and the affected residents. We keep an incident plan with those contacts and steps written down, so a ransomware note on a Monday morning becomes a checklist your team can follow. See cyber security risk assessment for where most engagements begin.

What to work through.

Where Boston security work usually starts.

Risk assessment

A structured review of identities, email, devices, backups and vendors, with findings ranked and a remediation plan.

Email and identity protection

Advanced email filtering, multifactor authentication and conditional access, the controls that stop most business email compromise.

Endpoint detection and response

Managed EDR on workstations and servers, with monitoring and response when something is found.

Security awareness training

Short, regular training and phishing simulations so staff recognize the attacks that get through.

Backup and recovery testing

Backups that are verified and restore-tested, with recovery times agreed in advance.

Cyber insurance and compliance evidence

Policies, controls and documentation that answer insurance questionnaires and client security reviews.

It is difficult to put into a review just how much we have valued this partnership. They have gone far beyond being a vendor to the Tarrant County Bar Association — they have become genuine supporters of our organization and the work we do. They have worked with us on everything from building our public-facing legal help website to guiding us through a complete rebranding and logo redesign. With every project, they take the time to understand our organization, our members, our mission, and what we are actually trying to accomplish rather than simply delivering a product. But what has impressed me most is how invested they have become in our success. They show up. They attend our events. They celebrate our wins. They bring us new ideas and look for ways they can help. When we work with them, it truly feels like we have another team in our corner. Our Bar Association is better because of this relationship, and I don't say that lightly. They have consistently gone above and beyond for us, and I am incredibly grateful for the creativity, responsiveness, enthusiasm, and genuine care they bring to everything they do. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Paul has always been our go-to, for well over a decade. He is prompt and knowledgeable, and it's really nice having a dedicated person to go to, although we know there is a team at Evernet that we can lean on when needed.

EVERNET has played a pivotal role in our business growth. They have been a fantastic partner over the last year, doing everything from rebuilding our website to managing our IT difficulties to improving our internal processes. They took care of a lot of the headaches that come with small business ownership, which allowed me to focus on doing the work I love and getting more clients through the door. If your business needs help in marketing, IT, or security, I cannot recommend them enough.

Questions before you get started.

Do you work with Boston businesses that are not managed IT clients?

Yes. Assessments and remediation projects are available on their own. Ongoing monitoring and response is delivered as a managed agreement.

How long does a risk assessment take?

Typically two to three weeks from kickoff to a written report, depending on size and the systems involved.

Can you help with cyber insurance applications?

Yes. We map your controls to the insurer questionnaire, close the gaps that affect eligibility and keep the evidence current for renewals.

Do you support compliance frameworks?

We prepare the technical controls and documentation for HIPAA, CMMC, NIST and similar frameworks. Formal certification or audit, where required, is performed by a third party.

Do you work on site in Boston?

EVERNET is based in Hartford, Connecticut, about 100 miles from downtown Boston. Day-to-day support is remote; on-site visits in Boston and the Route 128 suburbs are scheduled when hands-on work is needed and confirmed during scoping.
