Not a product you install, but a managed program that produces the evidence your insurer, regulator, and examiner expect to see. Designed for regulated practices with 2–50 staff that don’t employ internal IT or security staff. [ Schedule Your Security Assessment](https://calendly.com/captechgroup/15min) Cybersecurity for a regulated practice isn’t about buying a single product. It’s about building a set of layered controls that work together, monitoring them continuously, and producing documented evidence that the controls are operating. Your cyber insurer asks specific questions on their application. Your regulator expects to see specific safeguards during an examination. Your clients and referral sources increasingly require proof that you’re protecting their data. Generic antivirus and a firewall don’t answer those questions. Capstone builds and manages a security program around your practice — monitoring, detection, response, email security, access controls, training, policy, and documentation. Every control is maintained on an ongoing basis and documented in quarterly evidence packages. When your insurer, examiner, or client asks “what safeguards do you have in place?” the answer isn’t a verbal assurance — it’s an attachable evidence package with timestamps. We’ve been doing this work since 2004. In 2018, the Ohio Secretary of State issued [Directive 2018-15](https://www.sos.state.oh.us/globalassets/elections/directives/2018/dir2018-15.pdf), mandating county boards of elections to engage outside “Pathfinder” teams for election infrastructure security assessments. Clark State Community College — a DHS/NSA-designated Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense — was selected by the Clark County Board of Elections, and Brian Sammons served on the four-person Pathfinder team that assessed all 88 items from the CIS Elections Infrastructure Security Best Practices handbook. That meant evaluating voter registration systems, tabulation equipment, network configurations, access controls, policy documentation, and incident response procedures against established security frameworks. That experience — assessing critical infrastructure where documentation standards are absolute and the consequences of gaps are public — is the same standard we apply to every regulated practice we support.

Together, they form a documented security program that satisfies insurance applications, regulatory examinations, and client due diligence requirements. ### 24/7 SOC Monitoring with MDR A Security Operations Center monitors your environment around the clock. Managed Detection and Response (MDR) combines automated detection with human analyst review — when an alert fires at 2am, an analyst evaluates it and responds, not just a software rule. Threats are contained before your staff arrives in the morning. [Learn more about MDR →](https://captechgroup.com/services/cybersecurity-services) ### Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) EDR monitors every workstation and server in your environment — locally, in the cloud, and for remote workers. It detects malicious behavior that traditional antivirus misses, including zero-day attacks and fileless malware. When something suspicious happens on any device, EDR isolates it, captures forensic data, and alerts the SOC for review. Deployment reports are included in your quarterly evidence package. ### Email Security Advanced filtering blocks phishing, spoofed sender addresses, malware attachments, and business email compromise attempts before they reach your inbox. Email encryption for sensitive communications — required by HIPAA for PHI and recommended for any regulated data. Retention and archiving policies configured to match your regulatory requirements. ### DNS Filtering Network-level filtering that blocks access to known malicious, phishing, and command-and-control domains across every device on your network. This stops threats before a connection is even established — if a staff member clicks a link in a phishing email that made it through filters, DNS filtering blocks the destination. Works on-site and for remote workers. ### SIEM Log Aggregation and Analysis Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) collects and correlates log data from your firewall, servers, workstations, email, Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, and other systems. Instead of each system logging separately, SIEM connects the dots — a failed login on one system followed by unusual file access on another becomes a single, prioritized alert for analyst review. ### Dark Web Monitoring Continuous monitoring for your organization’s email addresses, credentials, and data on dark web marketplaces, paste sites, and forums. When compromised credentials are detected, we notify you immediately so passwords can be changed before the compromised account is exploited. Monitoring reports are documented in your evidence package. [Request a dark web scan →](https://captechgroup.com/dark-web-scan) ### Identity and Access Controls Multi-factor authentication enforced on email, remote access, and administrative accounts. Enterprise password management so your team uses unique, strong credentials without sticky notes. Role-based access controls limiting who can see what data. User behavior analytics (UEBA) that detect anomalous login patterns or privilege escalation — identifying insider threats and compromised accounts before data leaves your environment. ### Policy Development and Compliance Documentation Written security policies covering acceptable use, incident response, data handling, remote access, and business continuity — developed for your practice, aligned to CIS Controls, NIST CSF, and the specific regulations that apply to your industry. Annual policy reviews, staff acknowledgment tracking, and quarterly evidence packages that document every control in operation. This is the documentation your insurer and regulator actually ask for. ### Cybersecurity Risk Assessments Structured evaluations of your IT environment using CIS-CSAT, CIS RAM v2.1, and NIST frameworks. The assessment identifies gaps in your current controls, maps them to your regulatory and insurance requirements, and produces a prioritized remediation plan. Required annually for most regulatory frameworks and many cyber insurance applications. We conduct the assessment, deliver the findings, and implement the remediation.

Completion tracking and certificates for every staff member, included in your quarterly evidence package. Phishing simulation results documented with click rates, report rates, and trend analysis over time. Roughly 2–3 hours per employee per year.

We maintain documented incident response plans for your practice, test them periodically, and update them as your environment changes. If a reportable breach occurs, we help you navigate notification requirements, coordinate with your insurance carrier, and provide the technical documentation the investigation requires. > “Our company started working with Capstone Technologies Group in early 2020 for IT issues that we were having. Brian has been awesome to work with throughout our time with his business. Anytime we call him for assistance he is always prompt helping solve any problems we may have. If the issues cannot be solved from his office he comes out to our work site. Brian is always very friendly and professional. I would highly recommend his company for any IT issues. We look forward to having a long working relationship with his company and would recommend him for anyone else looking for assistance that is reasonably priced and first rate in consumer service.” ## Why Layered Security Matters No single control stops every attack. A phishing email might bypass your email filter — but DNS filtering blocks the malicious link. A zero-day exploit might evade traditional antivirus — but EDR detects the anomalous behavior and isolates the endpoint. A compromised password might get past the login screen — but MFA stops the attacker at the second factor, and UEBA flags the unusual login location for analyst review. The point of layered security is that when one control fails — and eventually one will — the next layer catches it. And the SIEM correlates the signals across all layers so the SOC analyst sees the full picture, not isolated alerts. This is also what your insurer and regulator are evaluating. They don’t just ask “do you have antivirus?” They ask about layers: Do you have MFA? EDR? Backup testing? Email encryption? Training? Incident response plans? And they ask for documentation. A managed security program produces that documentation as a byproduct of normal operations, not as a special project at renewal time. ## Your Quarterly Evidence Package Access Controls ✓ MFA enrollment (all users) ✓ Privileged access documentation ✓ Password manager status Endpoint & Monitoring ✓ EDR deployment reports ✓ SOC monitoring summaries ✓ Patch & vulnerability summary Network Security ✓ Firewall configuration summary ✓ Vulnerability scan results ✓ Secure remote access config Data Protection & Backups ✓ Encryption configuration verification ✓ Backup test results ✓ Business continuity & disaster recovery plan Email Security ✓ Email filtering evidence ✓ Encrypted email configuration ✓ Retention/hold settings Training & Governance ✓ Training completion certificates ✓ Phishing simulation results ✓ Policy acknowledgment records Updated quarterly. Ready for insurance applications, regulatory examinations, and audit documentation requests. ## Frameworks and Standards We Work With Our controls and documentation align to recognized security frameworks — not because frameworks are required in every case, but because they’re what insurers, regulators, and examiners use as benchmarks. When a cyber insurance underwriter asks about your controls, the answers map directly to these frameworks. CIS Controls Implementation Groups 1–2 NIST CSF Cybersecurity Framework CIS-CSAT / CIS RAM Risk assessment methodology CSET CISA evaluation tool Industry-specific regulatory alignment (HIPAA, GLBA, Ohio Rule 1.6, FTC Safeguards Rule, PCI DSS) is covered on each [industry page](https://captechgroup.com/industry-solutions/). > “I have worked with Brian over the past 20 years. He has always operated in a professional manner. Brian is a man of integrity and dependability. His commitment to clients and projects is second to none.” ## Industry-Specific Cybersecurity The security controls are the same across industries. What changes is the regulatory framework, the documentation requirements, and the specific systems your practice depends on. Each industry page covers the regulations, controls mapping, and evidence requirements for your vertical. ## Frequently Asked Questions Antivirus and a firewall are two controls out of dozens that your insurer and regulator expect. Managed cybersecurity adds 24/7 monitoring, endpoint detection and response, email security, identity management, DNS filtering, training, policy development, and documented evidence that all of these controls are operating. The difference is both the breadth of coverage and the documentation — a managed program produces quarterly evidence packages, not just a software license. EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) is software installed on each workstation and server that monitors for suspicious behavior and can isolate a compromised device. MDR (Managed Detection and Response) wraps EDR with 24/7 human analyst review through a Security Operations Center. EDR detects the alert; MDR ensures a trained analyst evaluates it, determines whether it’s a real threat, and responds appropriately — including at 2am on a Saturday. A risk assessment evaluates your current IT environment against a security framework (we use CIS-CSAT, CIS RAM v2.1, and NIST CSF) to identify gaps in your controls, prioritize remediation, and produce documentation. Most regulatory frameworks and many cyber insurance applications require one annually. Some regulations, like HIPAA, require a Security Risk Analysis as a specific, documented deliverable. We conduct the assessment and implement the remediation — it’s not a report that sits on a shelf. Yes. Cyber insurance applications ask specific questions about your security controls — do you have MFA, do you test backups, do you have an incident response plan, do your employees receive security training. Our quarterly evidence packages directly answer those questions with documented proof. We also coordinate with your broker during the application or renewal process if they need technical clarification. The SOC evaluates the alert, determines severity, and responds according to your documented incident response plan. For most threats, containment is automated — the compromised endpoint is isolated within minutes. The SOC analyst then investigates, determines the scope, and coordinates any additional response. For reportable incidents, we help navigate notification requirements and work with your insurance carrier. You receive a detailed incident report documenting what happened, how it was contained, and what was done to prevent recurrence. In most cases, yes. We assess your current environment during the initial review and deploy security controls around what you already have. Our monitoring integrates with Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, all major firewalls, and standard server/workstation configurations. If specific equipment needs to be upgraded to support required controls, we’ll tell you why and give you options at different price points. Capstone Technologies Group has been providing managed cybersecurity to Ohio practices since 2004. If your current setup doesn’t produce documented evidence of your security controls — or if you’re not confident in how you’d answer the questions on a cyber insurance application — that’s a good starting point for a conversation. ## Schedule Your Security Assessment 15-minute call to review your current security posture, identify the gaps, and determine what a managed cybersecurity program looks like for your practice.
