Overview

Fortis offers a comprehensive portfolio of cybersecurity services designed to proactively protect every aspect of physical and digital environments. The Fortis mission is to ensure all clients have the most effective tools to defend their systems, data, and users against an ever-evolving threat landscape.

It starts with security advisory and consulting services, which include a wide variety of ways for Fortis clients to learn more about their current security posture and begin to develop new ways to enhance protection. Assessments, penetration testing, workshops, tabletop exercises, compliance and governance, strategy development, and user training are all ways Fortis helps clients strengthen their day-to-day security operations.

Fortis ActiveDefense Monitoring provides critical, real-time visibility into the risk factors organizations face today. In order to monitor client environments effectively, Fortis assesses existing IT and security infrastructure, how it aligns with the rest of the organization and best practices, as well as any compliance or governance requirements that need to be met. ActiveDefense Monitoring has the ability to cover the following areas and disciplines: endpoint, edge, decoy, identity, SD-WAN, network, workload, cloud, IaaS, and SaaS.

Fortis also offers longer term contract engagements that provide proactive assistance with a variety of tasks throughout security environments, including: 24x7x365 threat monitoring through the Fortis SOC and SIEM, highly scalable cloud-based protection through Security as a Service (SECaaS), and managed security services that handle monitoring, maintenance, and support for security infrastructures.

Last but not least, Fortis handles incident response, forensics, and ActiveRecovery services for clients should an attack breach their defenses. The Fortis team of highly experienced and certified experts stay on top of the latest strategies and vectors utilized by cyber criminals so they can respond and fight back quickly, investigate the root cause of the attack, and assist in restoring systems back to a fully functional state.

How we are different

Fortis also partners with industry-leading security providers (such as Cisco, Splunk, Darktrace, Cylance, Fortinet, Varonis, and Microsoft) to deliver best-of-breed solutions capable of being managed and monitored by the Fortis team. The large range and diversity of Fortis offerings creates single-source accountability, so clients do not need to worry about dealing with other security service providers who may be less reliable, more expensive, or difficult to deal with.
• Fortis believes in uncompromising customer service in order to engender fanatical customer loyalty.
