Specialized services. Clear deliverables.

Small businesses are the most targeted victims of cybercrime — precisely because they're assumed to be unprotected. 1333 Solutions closes that gap with practical, business-first security consulting that doesn't require a dedicated IT department on your end.

Vulnerability Assessments

We evaluate your current security posture — networks, devices, user accounts, cloud services — and deliver a clear report of where your risks are, ranked by severity and easy to understand.

• Network and endpoint vulnerability scanning
• Cloud and SaaS configuration review
• User access and privilege audit
• Prioritized findings with remediation steps

Security Controls Implementation

Findings don't help if nothing changes. We implement the controls that make the biggest difference — MFA, endpoint protection, secure backups, and more — tailored to your business size and budget.

• Multi-factor authentication (MFA) rollout
• Endpoint detection and response (EDR) setup
• Secure, tested backup strategy
• Email security and phishing protection

Staff Security Training

Your team is your first line of defense — and often the biggest risk. We run practical training sessions that teach staff to recognize phishing, handle data safely, and respond to incidents.

• Phishing simulation and awareness training
• Password hygiene and credential management
• Incident reporting procedures
• Ongoing micro-training for new threats

Incident Response Planning

When something happens — and in today's environment it's a matter of when, not if — a clear plan makes the difference between a recoverable incident and a disaster. We build that plan with you.

• Documented incident response playbook
• Roles and escalation procedures defined
• Communication templates prepared
• Tabletop exercise to test readiness

Email is the primary delivery mechanism for phishing, spoofing, and business email compromise. Most small businesses have misconfigured or incomplete email security controls and don't know it — until a client calls to say something suspicious came from your domain. We audit, configure, and validate your full email security stack.

SPF, DKIM & DMARC Setup

Three DNS-based controls that prevent spoofing and tell the world what's authorized to send on your behalf. We audit your current records, fix what's broken, and enforce a DMARC policy that actually stops unauthorized senders.

• SPF record audit and correction
• DKIM key configuration across all sending services
• DMARC policy implementation (p=quarantine or p=reject)
• Validation across all third-party senders (CRM, marketing tools, etc.)

Email Gateway Configuration

Your email platform's built-in security controls are often under-configured out of the box. We harden Microsoft Defender for Office 365, Google Workspace email security, or your third-party gateway so it's actively filtering threats — not just receiving mail.

• Anti-phishing and anti-spoofing policy setup
• Safe Links and Safe Attachments (Microsoft) or equivalent
• External sender warnings and impersonation protection
• Spam and bulk mail filtering tuning

Email Security Audit & Report

Before we configure anything, we produce a clear picture of your current state — what's passing, what's failing, and what an attacker could do with what's exposed. The report is plain-language, prioritized by risk, and yours to keep.

• Domain reputation and blacklist check
• SPF/DKIM/DMARC validation and gap analysis
• Email header and routing analysis
• Prioritized findings with remediation steps

Ongoing DMARC Monitoring

After setup, DMARC aggregate reports tell you who's sending mail as your domain — including unauthorized senders you don't know about yet. We parse and review those reports monthly and flag anything that warrants action.

• Monthly DMARC aggregate report analysis
• Identification of unauthorized sending sources
• Alignment trend tracking
• Written summary with any action items

Cyber insurance underwriters are asking harder technical questions at renewal time — and many small businesses are surprised by what they don't have in place. We run the assessment, complete the documentation, and deliver a report you can hand directly to your broker, showing exactly where you stand and what's already addressed.

SaaS Security Posture Assessment

We scan your Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace environment against the security controls underwriters care about most — MFA, admin account hygiene, data access policies, and more. The output is a prioritized findings report, not a raw checklist.

• Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace security scan
• MFA coverage and admin account audit
• Data sharing and external access review
• Prioritized findings ranked by insurance impact

Attestation Questionnaire Completion

Most cyber insurance applications include a technical questionnaire. We work through it with you, mapping your actual security controls to each question so answers are accurate and defensible — not guesses.

• Line-by-line questionnaire review
• Control verification before each answer
• Documentation of supporting evidence
• Gap flagging for controls not yet in place

Broker-Ready Report Delivery

The assessment produces a clean PDF summary you can share with your insurance broker. It covers your current controls, findings, and remediation status — the evidence package that makes underwriting conversations shorter and renewal surprises fewer.

• Executive summary of security posture
• Controls in place vs. gaps identified
• Remediation status and timeline
• Format ready for broker or underwriter submission

Remediation Roadmap

The report shows where you are. The roadmap shows what to fix first. We prioritize the gaps by insurance impact and implementation effort so you make the changes that matter most before your next renewal.

• Prioritized remediation list with effort estimates
• Quick wins that improve coverage immediately
• Longer-term controls with implementation guidance
• Optional: we implement the fixes for you

Hardware fails. Ransomware encrypts. Employees make mistakes. The question isn't whether something will go wrong — it's whether your business can recover when it does. We build your disaster recovery plan, validate your backup architecture, and run the exercises that prove the plan holds under pressure.

DR Plan Development

We document a recovery plan customized for your business — not a generic template. It covers what to do, who does it, in what order, and who to call at each step. A plan your team can actually follow when they're stressed and the clock is running.

• Business impact analysis and recovery priority mapping
• Recovery time objective (RTO) and recovery point objective (RPO) definition
• Step-by-step recovery procedures for each critical system
• Roles, responsibilities, and escalation contacts

Backup Architecture Review

We audit your current backup setup against best practices — coverage, frequency, retention, and offsite redundancy. If there are gaps, we document what needs to change and why before those gaps become a problem.

• Coverage audit (what's backed up, what's not)
• Frequency and retention policy review
• Offsite and cloud redundancy assessment
• Vendor and configuration documentation

Restoration Testing

The only way to know a backup works is to restore from it. We run documented restoration tests — pull real data from your backups and verify it comes back intact. Results are documented so you have evidence your DR strategy is functional.

• Scheduled restoration from backup (not just verification)
• File, database, and system-level recovery testing
• Recovery time measurement against your RTO
• Written test results and pass/fail documentation

Tabletop Exercise Facilitation

A tabletop exercise walks your team through a realistic incident scenario — ransomware, hardware failure, data breach — so they practice the decisions before it's real. We facilitate the session, document the outcome, and identify where the plan needs strengthening.

• Scenario development based on your actual risk profile
• 1.5–2 hour facilitated team session
• Decision point documentation and gap identification
• Written after-action report with plan updates

Most small businesses have never done a full audit of who has access to what — and by the time they do, they find ex-employees with active accounts, admins who don't need admin rights, and shared passwords on critical systems. We inventory your entire access landscape, remediate what shouldn't be there, and enforce the controls that reduce your attack surface.

User Account Inventory & Audit

We produce a complete picture of every user account across your SaaS stack — who's active, who's dormant, and who has access they shouldn't. This is often the first time a business has seen this in one place.

• Full account inventory across Microsoft 365 / Google Workspace
• Active vs. inactive account classification
• Former employee and contractor account identification
• Shared and service account documentation

Privilege Review & Least-Privilege Enforcement

Admin rights should be rare and deliberate. We review who holds elevated privileges, identify accounts that don't need them, and document a least-privilege access model for your environment.

• Admin and privileged role mapping
• Over-privileged user identification
• Role-based access control recommendations
• Implementation of least-privilege model

MFA Audit & Implementation

Multi-factor authentication is the single most effective control against credential-based attacks. We verify what's enforced, what's optional, and what's missing — then close the gaps.

• MFA enrollment coverage audit (who has it, who doesn't)
• Policy enforcement vs. optional enrollment check
• MFA method review (push vs. TOTP vs. SMS)
• Enforcement for all admin accounts and external-facing apps

Stale Account Remediation

Finding the problems is only half the work. We document and execute the remediation — disabling or removing accounts that shouldn't exist, resetting access for those that should, and leaving you with a clean, audited baseline.

• Documented remediation plan before any changes
• Coordinated account disabling and removal
• Data and mailbox preservation where needed
• Post-remediation clean access report

Monitoring without a clear owner creates confusion — you know something's wrong, but not who should act or what they should do. We design and deploy monitoring that fits your infrastructure, configure alerting with clear escalation paths, and hand you a system your team can actually operate. We build it; your team runs it.

Tool Selection & Deployment

We evaluate your infrastructure and select monitoring tooling appropriate for your scale and team — from simple uptime monitoring to more comprehensive infrastructure observability. No overbuilt enterprise platforms, no shelfware.

• Infrastructure and workload assessment
• Tool recommendation and justification (open-source and commercial options)
• Agent deployment and configuration across target systems
• Integration with existing cloud platforms and SaaS tools

Alert Configuration & Escalation Paths

Alerts are only useful if the right person receives them with enough context to act. We configure thresholds, suppress noise, and document who gets notified for what — so alerts go to the person who can fix it, not a shared inbox no one watches.

• Alert threshold tuning for key metrics (CPU, disk, uptime, latency)
• Notification routing by alert type and severity
• On-call schedule integration (PagerDuty, Opsgenie, email, SMS)
• Alert suppression and deduplication to reduce noise

Dashboard & Reporting Setup

Dashboards that nobody checks are worse than useless — they create false confidence. We build dashboards around the metrics your team actually needs to see, and configure a recurring health report so there's a regular forcing function for review.

• Operational dashboard for day-to-day visibility
• Executive summary view for leadership
• Automated weekly or monthly health report
• Historical trend tracking for capacity planning

Runbook Documentation & Handoff

When an alert fires, your team shouldn't have to guess what to do. We document a runbook for each alert type — what it means, what to check first, and the standard response steps. The handoff includes a walkthrough session so your team is ready to operate without us.

• Per-alert runbook documentation
• Escalation decision trees for common failure modes
• Handoff session with your operational team
• 30-day post-handoff support for tuning and questions

Most small businesses are leaving hours on the table every week — manual data entry, copy-paste workflows, repetitive reporting, disconnected systems. 1333 Solutions maps those workflows and replaces them with automation that just works.

Workflow Analysis

Before we automate anything, we understand your operations. We map your current workflows, identify the biggest time sinks, and prioritize what will deliver the most value fastest.

• Current-state workflow mapping
• Time and effort audit per process
• Automation opportunity scoring
• ROI estimate before any work begins

Automation Implementation

We build and deploy the automations — using the right tools for your stack and your team's comfort level. No overly complex solutions that only we can maintain.

• Workflow automation (Zapier, Make, Power Automate, n8n)
• Document generation and routing
• Scheduled reporting and dashboards
• Approval and notification workflows

System Integrations

Your tools shouldn't exist in silos. We connect your CRM, accounting software, project management tools, and communication platforms so data flows where it needs to go — automatically.

• API-based integrations between existing tools
• CRM and accounting system connectivity
• E-commerce and inventory sync
• Custom webhook and trigger setup

Ongoing Optimization

Automation needs maintenance. As your business changes, your workflows should adapt. We monitor your automations, fix what breaks, and improve what can be better.

• Monthly automation health review
• Error monitoring and alerting
• Workflow adjustments as your needs evolve
• New automation discovery sessions

Most small business websites are either nonexistent, outdated, or built from a generic template that looks like everyone else's. We build sites that are tailored to your specific business, customers, and goals — with no bloated page builders or ongoing subscription fees.

Discovery & Blueprint

We start by understanding your business deeply — your services, customers, competitive advantages, and goals. Our structured questionnaire captures everything we need before a single line of code is written.

• Business identity and brand voice
• Customer pain points and search intent
• Competitive differentiators and credentials
• Content, pages, and calls to action

Design & Development

We build clean, fast, static sites — no WordPress, no page builders, no unnecessary dependencies. Your site loads fast, ranks well, and doesn't break when a plugin updates.

• Mobile-first responsive design
• Self-hosted fonts — no third-party CDN calls
• Local SEO optimization for your service area
• Contact forms with spam protection

Content & Copy

We write the copy or work with what you have. Either way, every word is written for your specific customer — not generic filler text that says nothing.

• Headline and value proposition writing
• Service descriptions and FAQs
• About / story section
• Testimonials and trust signals

Launch & Handoff

We deploy to your hosting, configure your domain, set up email, and hand you a site you actually own and understand. No lock-in, no monthly fees beyond your hosting.

• Deployment and domain configuration
• Google Search Console and sitemap setup
• Plain-English documentation for updates
• 30-day post-launch support included
