Security as a Service

Security for the data your business depends on

Email and data protection, delivered as a managed service by Layer 7.

Beyond hardware

Your data is the asset worth protecting

Your business assets are not just computers and networks. They include years of proprietary data, personal information, and sensitive documents that can be lost, destroyed, or compromised without a plan to secure them.

Layer 7 delivers email and data protection as a managed service. It is cloud-based, with no hardware or software to install and automatic updates.

What a security plan should answer

  • Where does our sensitive data live and travel?
  • Is it backed up offsite and recoverable?
  • Are our users ready to spot risk?
  • Which regulations apply to us?

How we work

Security built into daily operations

No connected system is 100% secure. What matters is how well you prevent, detect, and recover.

  1. Know your assets

    Identify the data, systems, and communications that matter most to your business.

  2. Build in protection

    Make security part of everyday operations, with anti-virus and anti-malware kept current.

  3. Back up and recover

    Back up important files to a secure offsite location and plan how you will restore operations.

  4. Educate your people

    Teach users about security risk and the time lost to compromised computers.

Compliance-minded

Support for regulated data

Sensitive personal and financial information may fall under industry, state, or federal requirements. Examples include:

Compliance is not the same as security, and this page is not legal advice. We help you identify the technical questions to review with your compliance and legal advisers.
