Protect Your Business. 24×7.
Cyberattacks increasingly target email, Microsoft 365 accounts, user identities, endpoints and company data. Next Step Technologies provides managed cybersecurity, 24×7 monitoring and threat response using Sophos technology and local NST expertise.
Cybersecurity Is More Than Antivirus
Cyberattacks increasingly target business email, Microsoft 365 accounts, user identities, computers, cloud applications and company data. A single compromised account or device can expose sensitive information, interrupt operations or allow an attacker to move deeper into the business.
NST helps organizations reduce these risks through managed cybersecurity services combining advanced Sophos technology, 24×7 threat monitoring and local technical support.
Ransomware
Fast-moving attacks that encrypt business data and demand payment.
Email & Phishing
The most common way attackers gain an initial foothold.
Microsoft 365 & Identity
Compromised accounts can expose email, files and business relationships.
Endpoint Threats
Unprotected computers and servers are an easy entry point.
Data & AI Security
New tools bring new ways for business data to leave the organization.
What Level of Protection Does Your Business Need?
Every organization has different cybersecurity requirements. NST will help determine the appropriate level of protection based on your users, systems, business data and risk profile.

Who Responds When Your Business Is Attacked?
Security software can detect suspicious activity, but alerts alone do not stop an attack. NST Managed Cybersecurity combines Sophos MDR with NST’s local technical expertise to provide 24×7 threat monitoring, investigation and response.
This gives businesses access to security operations capabilities without having to build and staff their own Security Operations Centre.
24×7 Monitoring
Cybersecurity events are monitored around the clock.
Threat Investigation
Suspicious activity is investigated rather than simply generating another alert.
Threat Response
Confirmed threats can be investigated, contained and responded to based on the selected MDR service and response mode.
Local NST Support
NST remains the customer’s local cybersecurity and technology partner.
