Cyber security for businesses
Managed cybersecurity: real protection, without the need for an internal security team
More than half of cyberattacks in Portugal affect SMEs — and a single ransomware incident can halt business for days and cost tens of thousands of euros. DataRoad designs, implements and manages your company's complete IT security prevention, 24/7 supervision, incident response and recovery. All for a fixed fee, with named account managers and written SLAs.
The risk has changed — defence must change too
Antivirus is no longer enough. Today, attacks get in through a well-crafted phishing email, a reused password, a misconfigured remote access point, or a compromised supplier. And they don't choose a company by its size: they choose who is poorly protected.
The good news is that most incidents are preventable with well-managed layers of protection — not with yet more software bought and then forgotten. That is exactly what DataRoad does: Security as a continuous service, managed by a team certified in Fortinet, Sophos, Cisco and Microsoft, integrated into your company's support and infrastructure.
The protective layers that we manage
Managed firewalls
Network perimeter protected by next-generation firewall — configuration, updates, traffic inspection and secure VPNs for remote working.
Endpoint and server protection
Next-generation antivirus (EDR) on all devices, with suspicious behaviour detection and automatic isolation of compromised machines.
Email security
Filtering out phishing, spam and malicious attachments before they reach the inbox – the number 1 entry point for attacks.
Access and identities
Multi-factor authentication (MFA), password policies, privilege management and access reviews — so that a stolen password does not open up the whole company.
Saves and resumes
Managed and tested backups with disaster recovery plan: if all else fails, the business restarts — without paying a ransom.
Wi-Fi and segmented network
Separate guest networks, service-based segmentation and Secure corporate Wi-Fi, to contain any intrusion.
GDPR compliance
GDPR-aligned technical and organisational measures: personal data protection, registers, retention and documented incident response.
Team awareness raising
Good practices and alerts for your employees — because a distracted user's bad click remains the greatest risk.
Ad-hoc security or managed security?
| Approach | What is happening | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Buy and install software | One-off licences, no management, no policy updates, no supervision. | False sense of security. Attacks evolve; protection remains static. |
| Annual audit | Snapshot of the moment, report submitted — and nobody carries out the recommendations. | The identified risk is still there. Paper doesn't block ransomware. |
| DataRoad Managed Cybersecurity | Protective layers put in place and managed every day, with 24/7 supervision, incident response and continuous improvement. | Risk permanently reduced, with a clear owner: us. |
How much does business protection cost?
Security management is part of Unlimited IT packages Endpoint protection, access policies, backups and monitoring are covered by the fixed monthly fee, with no tie-in. Specific projects — a new firewall, network segmentation, security audit or GDPR compliance — are subject to a bespoke proposal, with scope and price agreed in writing.

Frequently asked questions about cybersecurity
My company is small — are we really a target?
Yes, and precisely for that reason: current attacks are automated and look for poorly protected companies, not large enterprises. SMEs are the majority of victims in Portugal precisely because they invest less in protection.
We already have antivirus software. Isn't that enough?
No. Traditional antivirus protects against known malicious files — but today’s attacks use phishing, stolen passwords and remote access. You need to protect in layers: perimeter, workstations, email, access and backups.
What happens if we are attacked?
With DataRoad managed security, the incident is detected by monitoring, the affected machine is isolated, and recovery is carried out from tested backups — with an average response time of under 2 hours and clear communication with management throughout the process.
Does this help us with GDPR?
Yes. The technical measures we are putting in place — data protection, access control, backups and incident logging — are the basis of GDPR compliance, and we document everything for your data protection officer or legal adviser.
How long does the implementation take?
The essential layers are active from the first weeks; the complete plan is phased by risk priority, without interrupting business. Following implementation, management is continuous — security is never «finished».
