Stop spending nights worrying about breaches. Our tiered security framework gives you the exact protection your organization needs — from essential controls to advanced threat detection — so you can focus on growth, not gaps.
We start with understanding. Plow Networks’ security assessments identify where your vulnerabilities lie and how to address them — without overcomplicating your roadmap. Through structured risk assessments, we evaluate what protections you have in place and where critical gaps exist.
Through our comprehensive assessment, we evaluate both your security technology and organizational maturity — determining what tier of protection your organization needs based on your industry, size, and risk profile, and how effectively you currently manage security.
As a SOC 2 compliant provider, our guidance aligns with industry standards for security and data integrity.
Key Advisory Deliverables:
Once the roadmap is defined, we execute. From email security upgrades to endpoint protection and identity management, Plow Networks handles every technical and operational step with precision.
Key Execution Services:
Security doesn’t stop at deployment. Our ongoing managed services include real-time monitoring, patching, threat detection, and continuous improvement to keep your organization protected.
Key Support Services:
No two organizations have the same risk tolerance, budget, or maturity level. Our approach lets you build protection step by step: start with the essentials, strengthen where you need to, and scale as your environment evolves.
We recommend security controls across three tiers based on your organization’s size, industry requirements, risk profile, and compliance needs. Most organizations implement a blend of controls across tiers — selecting Essential, Standard, or Advanced solutions for different security domains based on their specific risks and priorities.
| Level | Focus | Key Outcomes |
| Essential | Foundational Protection | Stop common threats, secure access, and ensure reliable recovery with baseline controls |
| Standard | Enhanced Defense | Detect and respond to emerging attacks with layered defenses and proactive monitoring |
| Advanced | Proactive & Comprehensive | Automate threat response, leverage threat intelligence, and continuously strengthen your security posture |
Your security program will be tailored to your needs. For example, a professional services firm might need Essential endpoint protection with Standard email security due to phishing risk. A healthcare provider might require Standard baseline controls with Advanced MDR for 24/7 threat monitoring and DLP to protect patient data. We help you invest where it matters most.
Technology alone doesn’t make you secure. Through our comprehensive assessment, we evaluate your complete security program — including policies, procedures, incident response capabilities, and organizational readiness — to determine your maturity level:
Underprepared
Limited or no formal security controls, policies, or procedures in place. High vulnerability to basic attacks with minimal ability to detect or respond to incidents.
Proactive
Strong foundational controls with monitoring and threat detection. Regular assessments, documented policies, and structured incident response processes are in place.
Reactive
Basic protections exist, but security is handled incident-by-incident. Limited visibility into threats, and response happens only after problems occur.
Anticipatory
Advanced threat intelligence, automated response capabilities, continuous improvement programs, and security integrated into business strategy and decision-making.
Security Technology Framework identifies what tier of protection your organization needs across different security domains — the recommended controls (Essential, Standard, or Advanced) for areas like email security, endpoint protection, access management, and backup based on your specific risks.
Maturity Assessment evaluates how effectively you manage security beyond just technology — your policies, procedures, training, incident response, and continuous improvement practices.
An organization might have Standard technology but Reactive maturity if those tools aren’t properly configured, monitored, or supported by documented processes. Our assessment identifies both dimensions so you can strengthen your complete security posture.
Built-in compliance, not bolted on.
Trusted by healthcare providers to safeguard patient data and maintain audit readiness across infrastructure and endpoints.
Proven expertise in helping organizations protect personal data and meet EU compliance standards with confidence.
Independently audited to verify the security, availability, and confidentiality controls that protect your sensitive business data.
Trusted to meet strict data integrity standards
Certified specialists in Microsoft, Fortinet, Cisco, and other enterprise security tools
vCISOs and engineers who balance protection with practicality
Start with a no-obligation assessment — identify your gaps and build a roadmap that fits your goals.
Discover your biggest risks and what to do about them. Our experts will identify vulnerabilities, evaluate your protections, and provide a tailored roadmap to strengthen your defenses. Complete the form below to get started.
Our assessment includes evaluation of both your security technology and organizational maturity. We inventory your current security controls across different domains (firewalls, endpoint protection, email security, backups, access controls, monitoring) and determine what tier of protection you need in each area — Essential, Standard, or Advanced — based on your industry, size, and risk profile. We also assess your policies, procedures, incident response capabilities, and governance to determine your maturity level (Underprepared, Reactive, Proactive, or Anticipatory). You’ll receive a detailed gap analysis report that prioritizes risks, outlines a phased roadmap with specific control recommendations across tiers, and provides budget estimates. There’s no obligation to move forward — it’s designed to give you clarity on where you stand and where you should be.
The Technology Framework identifies what tier of protection you need across different security domains (Essential, Standard, or Advanced). For example, you might need Standard email security due to phishing risk but only Essential firewall protection. The Maturity Assessment evaluates how well you currently manage security — your policies, procedures, training, incident response, and continuous improvement practices (Underprepared, Reactive, Proactive, or Anticipatory). You might have Standard technology but Reactive maturity if those tools aren’t properly configured or supported by documented processes. Our assessment addresses both dimensions: what you should have in place for each security domain and how effectively you’re managing what you do have.
Not necessarily. We design solutions that integrate with your current infrastructure whenever possible. During our assessment, we evaluate what’s working, what can be optimized, and where strategic upgrades make sense. Our goal is to maximize your existing investments while filling critical gaps — not force unnecessary replacements. Some organizations have good technology that just needs better configuration or processes; others have gaps that require new solutions. We’ll be transparent about what you truly need.
As a SOC 2 compliant provider, we build compliance into every engagement from the start. We align our security controls with the specific requirements of your industry — whether that’s HIPAA for healthcare, GDPR for EU data protection, or PCI DSS for payment processing.
We recommend annual comprehensive assessments at minimum, with quarterly reviews if you operate in regulated industries or high-risk environments. Between formal assessments, continuous vulnerability scanning and managed detection services help catch emerging threats in real time. As your organization grows or your technology environment changes, additional assessments ensure your protections and maturity level evolve accordingly. Think of it as an annual physical for your security program — regular checkups catch issues before they become critical.
