Infrastructure & Cybersecurity

We have been delivering IT Infrastructure and Cybersecurity services for over two decades. This is bedrock for our clients. The infrastructure must be high performing and robust, to optimize the client’s performance across all functions. The client must also comply with all applicable data privacy laws and regulations, while ensuring data and systems are as secure as possible. Our multi-disciplinary team includes compliance experts, lawyers, network engineers, and systems engineers…bringing various vantage points and skill sets to bear to see everything and get the job done right.

“For business owners and manager, IT is often viewed as break/fix. That is, systems are valued at the start of an enterprise…and then again when there are disruptions that need to be corrected. Otherwise, it’s an afterthought.

This is problematic on numerous levels. The obvious problem being that waiting for a problem to happen is disruptive to operations and often costly when it does. Not to mention the diminished performance of your network over time if you don’t maintain it.

However, the bigger issue is the safety and security of the information contained on your systems. And that’s where Garnet River can help. We can support your staff and fill in gaps with IT infrastructure and security, or we can lead.”

Key Benefits of Garnet River Infrastructure

Staff Augmentation

In-house information technology teams can find themselves under enormous stress during busy seasons and periods of growth. Co-management offers a helping hand to maintain delivery, prevent burnout, and preserve morale.

On-Demand Expertise

When your team runs into issues they are not equipped to respond to, a co-managed service provider (MSP) serves as a crucial backup and resource.

Improved Security & Compliance

Businesses cannot afford to let security and compliance take a backseat. A co-managed service provider offers proactive protection and expertise.

Enhanced Productivity

Information technology downtime is one of the biggest drivers of lost workplace productivity. Proactively caring for your network and dividing the required responsibility and tasks can boost productivity and ensure employees focus on work that drives business performance.

Standardized Tools

GarnetMSP implements antivirus, monitoring, and security tools on all systems within a client environment, which ensures security and stability. Onsite admins have access and control of these powerful tools.

Why Garnet River Cybersecurity

Large and small organizations alike face the risks of information security breaches. The potential losses are substantial, with the average quantifiable cost for a data breach in the U.S. being $4.88MM (IBM), not to mention the qualitative cost of reputational harm.

At Garnet River we recognize cybersecurity is not a point in time solution. We work with clients to develop processes that mitigate risk and enable the scalable, secure handling of information to operational, information, practical, and educational cybersecurity needs.

Garnet River also brings a unique multidisciplinary approach to data security and privacy. We understand the requirements, because we have foundational expertise in data security, infrastructure, and privacy. But we also understand the why and how…and that the right people paired with a technology-supported process makes assessment, analysis, action planning, and remediation efficient and effective.

Our practice lead is an (ISC)² security influencer and was lead information security architect for the U.S. Federal Reserve. We back him with information security engineers, technical architects, legal and compliance officers, and communications specialists.

The reason for this multidisciplinary approach: Information Security decisions are increasingly being made in the boardroom. That’s why your security staff needs greater exposure to the business, and the business needs to see the security staff as a partner that can align objectives with organizational imperatives.
