Cyber Security for Businesses

Managed cybersecurity: real protection, without needing an internal security team

More than half of cyberattacks in Portugal affect SMEs — and a single ransomware incident can stop operations for days and cost tens of thousands of euros. DataRoad provides cybersecurity for companies: designing, implementing, and manages the complete IT security of your business: prevention, proactive monitoring, incident response and recovery. All through a fixed approach, with identified responsibilities and written SLAs.

The risk has changed — the defence must change too

Antivirus is no longer enough. Today, attacks get in through a well-written phishing email, a reused password, a misconfigured remote access point or a compromised supplier. And they don't choose by company 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 another piece of software bought and forgotten. That is precisely what DataRoad does: security as a continuous service, managed by a team certified in Fortinet, Sophos, Cisco and Microsoft, integrated with your company's support and infrastructure.

What is put in writing

Managed security without a paper trail isn't security—it's blind trust. The contract and reports define:

• Inventory of what is protectedendpoints, servers, firewalls, email accounts and backups, with the status of each layer.
• Response times by prioritya security incident comes in as top priority, with the times of SLA starting from the alert.
• Backup policy with restore testingwhat is copied, how often, where it is located, and when it was last successfully restored.
• Monthly reportalerts handled, updates applied, blocked attempts and what we recommend fixing next.
• Who does what in an incidentcontacts, isolation order, internal communication and, where applicable, notification of the authorities.

NIS2 and legal obligations

Since 2025, the NIS2 Directive has been transposed into Portuguese law by Decree-Law 125/2025, with mandatory registration on the MyCiber platform and fines that can reach up to 10 million euros for covered entities. The required measures — risk management, backups, access control, incident response and training — are precisely the layers described on this page. See if your company falls within the scope of NIS2 and what needs to be done, and use ours cyber security checklist for SMEs as a starting point. For the most common fraud in Portuguese companies — the email-altered invoice — we have a practical protection guide.
