Security that fits how a small business actually gets hit.

Most attacks on businesses your size don't start with a master hacker. They start with one phished password, one laptop running yesterday's antivirus, one backup that turns out to be encrypted too. CWMS closes those doors — in that order — and keeps them closed.

1 · Identity first

Your Microsoft 365 accounts are the front door. We harden the tenant, turn on multi-factor authentication for every account, and set conditional access so a stolen password alone gets nobody in.

2 · Endpoint protection that watches behaviour

Modern endpoint detection and response (EDR) on every machine — not legacy antivirus that only recognizes threats it has seen before. When something acts wrong, it gets isolated, not just logged.

3 · Backups that survive ransomware

Backups that can't be encrypted or deleted by the attack they're meant to save you from — immutable, and tested, so “we have a backup” is a fact, not a hope.

4 · Email and phishing defence

Most of this starts in the inbox. We lock down your mail settings properly and give your staff the awareness piece — what the lures look like this year, not five years ago.

5 · A written plan for the bad day

Who gets called, what gets unplugged, what gets reported, in what order — written down before you need it, not invented during it.

Why insurers are in this conversation now

Canadian cyber insurers increasingly require multi-factor authentication on all accounts, endpoint detection and response (not legacy antivirus), and backups that are protected from tampering and tested. If those controls aren't in place when an incident happens, a claim can be denied. The only question is whether it's done before the renewal, or after the incident.

Why now — the numbers

  • 16% of Canadian businesses were impacted by a cyber security incident in 2025. (Source: Statistics Canada, Canadian Survey of Cyber Security and Cybercrime, released October 2026)
  • Ransomware attacks against Canadian organizations are projected to grow about 26% per year through 2027. (Source: Canadian Centre for Cyber Security, Ransomware Threat Outlook 2025–2027)
