Web Protection (DNS)

Did you know that email and web are collectively used to deploy 99% of malware-based cyberattacks? *

​

Adding our Web Protection service provides an additional layer of protection between an employee and the internet by blacklisting dangerous sites & filtering out unwanted content, in the office or at home. The domain name system (DNS) works like a phone book for the internet. When your employee enters a website, the DNS servers take that input and translate it into the unique internet protocol (IP) address that lets the browser open the desired site. DNS protocols are highly vulnerable to cyberattacks. By redirecting users’ web traffic through a cloud-based, DNS security solution, businesses can finely tune and enforce web access policies, ensure regulatory compliance, and stop threats at the network’s edge.

Microsoft 365 / Google Workspace Back-Up And Recovery

Did you know that 74% of security professionals rank Data Back-up & Recovery is the most effective solution to respond to a successful attack? *

​

Having your Microsoft 365 and/or Google Workspace backed-up provides a multi-layered approach to security against ransomware, compliance needs such as HIPAA, & advanced recovery features. It’s a common misconception among SaaS/Cloud users that doing back-ups isn’t necessary for their data because it exists in the cloud. From human error to phishing emails or malware can cause data loss. SaaS/Cloud providers protect your data from hardware failure, software failure, natural disaster, and power outages. While Hillside Tech can help protect your data from human error and malicious acts from internal or external sources.

​

​

• For Microsoft 365 protect your OneDrive, Contacts, Calendar, Mail, and SharePoint Online data that goes beyond Microsoft 365’s native recovery capabilities and retention period.

​

• Automated backups once a day that capture point-in-time snapshots of each users’ relevant app data, with the option to perform additional backups at any time.

​

• Detailed activity log with all administrator and user action records.

​
