Comparing live pricing and terms from 400+ carriers and platforms
24/7 SOC monitoring, managed detection and response, endpoint protection, and compliance support — selected vendor-neutral and held accountable by the owner.
Most Columbus mid-market companies cannot justify a full-time security team, and most security firms solve that by selling you their own stack. We do not carry a stack. We work with every major firewall, MDR, SIEM, and email security platform and recommend the one that fits your environment.
The residual a carrier or platform pays us is the same whichever one you choose, so nothing steers the recommendation. Contracts are in your name. After 23 years we have a fairly clear view of which security tools age well and which do not, and that judgment is what Columbus clients actually hire us for.
Deep packet inspection, application control, and threat intelligence updates, tuned to your network rather than shipped at defaults.
The security partner we place runs the SOC around the clock across endpoints, network, and cloud. We select them and hold them to the SLA.
Behavioral analysis on every workstation and server, catching fileless and living-off-the-land activity that signature tools miss.
MFA across email, VPN, and cloud apps, deployed and managed rather than half-enabled and forgotten.
Inbound filtering, link rewriting, attachment sandboxing, and DMARC enforcement — the highest-return control most companies have not finished.
Regular scans plus managed patching, with a report you can actually act on.
