Offerings
16 offeringsCloud Backup & Recovery
Ancero's Cloud Backup and Recovery service prevents data loss with encrypted storage and virtualized recovery, designed to reduce downtime in the event of a data loss incident. Data is stored offsite and can be accessed securely from any location and device.
Cloud Backup for Microsoft & Google
Cloud backup services securely copy and store critical business emails, files, and collaboration data in a separate, protected cloud environment. The service protects against data loss caused by accidental deletion, cyberattacks, system failures, or disasters, covering both Microsoft and Google platforms.
Cloud Infrastructure
Ancero Cloud Infrastructure (ACI) allows small to midsize businesses to move away from purchasing, building, and maintaining expensive on-premises IT assets by plugging into the cloud on a pay-only-for-what-you-use model. ACI can be quickly scaled up or down according to current demand, maximizing operational efficiency, and is described as typically half the cost of the traditional data center model.
Cloud Storage
Ancero's cloud storage solution provides businesses with a secure, offsite location to store and access data from any location and any device. Hardened security technology ensures that applications, files, and desktops are protected, meet compliance standards, and are always available. The service is powered by the Microsoft Azure Cloud platform.
Cloud Workspace
Cloud Workspace is a computing platform that enables businesses to transition existing data, applications, and devices to the cloud, connecting remote employees and fully supporting BYOD. It provides a consistent user experience across desktops, laptops, tablets, and smartphones and is infinitely scalable, instantly upgradable, and continually protected. Ancero bundles managed IT services into the offering to reduce management burden on the client.
Email Security
Ancero's email security services protect businesses from cyber threats targeting email communications, including phishing, ransomware, business email compromise (BEC), and spam. The service combines advanced technology and security best practices to keep sensitive information confidential and organizations resilient against evolving attacks.
Managed IT
Ancero proactively monitors client networks and technology around the clock to ensure reliability, security, and continuity. Services include 24/7 network monitoring, helpdesk support, onsite remediation, vendor management, and dedicated service team support. The offering is designed to give businesses freedom from IT management with predictable costs and scalable support.
Managed Security
Ancero provides 24/7 expert managed security services including threat monitoring, detection, and response from an East Coast-based SOC. The service is modular and integrates with existing technologies, available as either co-managed or fully outsourced security operations. It covers both on-site and cloud assets and is designed to help businesses build trust and maintain security compliance.
Managed SOC
Ancero's Managed SOC service detects, responds to, and isolates critical cybersecurity incidents using advanced software tools and engineering services. It utilizes a cloud-based Security Incident and Event Management (SIEM) platform for log collection, retention, monitoring, and analysis, as well as intrusion monitoring, breach detection, and response using advanced threat intelligence. SOC reporting covers all assets both onsite and in the cloud.
MDR Endpoint Protection
Managed Detection and Response (MDR) endpoint protection combines advanced technology and human expertise to protect business devices such as laptops, desktops, and servers from cyber threats. Unlike traditional endpoint security, MDR experts actively hunt for hidden or emerging threats that automated systems might miss, providing a proactive approach to catching sophisticated attacks early. This is a fully managed cybersecurity service.
Microsoft 365 Migration
Ancero specializes in migrating customers' email and data from multiple platforms into the Microsoft Office 365 suite with minimal downtime, using automated tools that simplify migrations from 5 users to 500 or more. Because Office 365 does not provide native backup and recovery options, Ancero layers on cloud-based SaaS Protection to back up data in Office 365 including Microsoft Teams.
Penetration Testing
Ancero's penetration testing service has ethical hackers simulate real-world cyberattacks on an organization's systems, networks, or applications to identify and help fix security vulnerabilities before malicious attackers can exploit them. Security experts attempt to breach systems using the same tools and techniques as real attackers, but in a controlled and authorized manner, to uncover network security weaknesses.
Privileged Access Management
Privileged Access Management (PAM) is a cybersecurity solution that protects an organization's most sensitive systems and data by controlling, monitoring, and securing accounts with elevated access. It targets privileged accounts that have the power to change configurations, access confidential information, or manage critical business functions.
Security Awareness Training
Security awareness training services educate and empower employees to recognize and respond to cybersecurity threats such as phishing, social engineering, and ransomware. The service is designed to make employees a strong first line of defense for their organization by teaching staff how to spot and avoid these threats, significantly reducing the risk of a successful attack.
Utility VoIP
Utility VoIP is Ancero's cloud phone system that eliminates the need for complex and expensive PBX hardware and software. The service moves business phone systems to the cloud, providing seamless interdepartmental communication and features such as voicemail-to-email delivery. It is managed by Ancero's dedicated Utility VoIP Product Manager with a defined product roadmap.
Vulnerability Scanning
Internal vulnerability scanning is a proactive cybersecurity measure that examines an organization's internal network, systems, and devices to identify security weaknesses that could be exploited by attackers who have gained access to the internal environment. Scans look for vulnerabilities such as outdated software, weak passwords, misconfigurations, and unpatched systems inside the company's network, behind the firewall.
