43% of cyberattacks target SMEs because they are less protected than large enterprises. One ransomware incident costs Canadian SMEs an average of $46,000. Natrix provides multi-layer cybersecurity — EDR, MDR, SOC, email filtering, and user training — at a price designed for SME budgets. We protect your business without slowing it down.

The Cybersecurity Threats Facing Montreal SMEs

Cybercriminals know that SMEs have weaker defenses. Here are the specific threats we protect your business against every day.

Ransomware Attacks

Ransomware encrypts your data and demands payment. 43% of attacks target SMEs. Our EDR detects behavioral anomalies and blocks encryption before it spreads.

Phishing & Business Email Compromise

Fake emails trick employees into revealing credentials or wiring money. Our advanced filtering blocks 99% of phishing attempts before they reach inboxes.

Malware & Spyware Infections

Malware steals data, slows systems, and creates backdoors. Real-time behavioral analysis on every endpoint catches threats traditional antivirus misses.

Insider Threats

Disgruntled employees or careless actions can leak sensitive data. Activity monitoring and access controls limit exposure and detect suspicious behavior.

Network Vulnerabilities

Unpatched systems, open ports, and misconfigured firewalls create entry points. Monthly vulnerability scans and automated remediation close these gaps.

Credential Theft & Brute Force

Stolen passwords and automated login attempts compromise accounts. MFA enforcement and dark web monitoring protect your credentials.

What Are EDR, MDR, and SOC — and Why Does Your SME Need All Three?

EDR — Endpoint Detection and Response

Software installed on every computer, server, and mobile device in your business. It monitors for suspicious behavior (not just known viruses) and automatically isolates infected devices before threats spread. Traditional antivirus only catches known malware; EDR catches unknown and zero-day threats using behavioral AI.

MDR — Managed Detection and Response

While EDR is the software, MDR is the human expertise behind it. Real security analysts review EDR alerts, investigate suspicious activity, and take action when threats are confirmed. MDR turns automated detection into intelligent response — the difference between knowing about a threat and actually stopping it.

SOC — Security Operations Center

The centralized command center that coordinates all your security tools: firewall, EDR, email filtering, and network monitoring. Our SOC maintains 24/7 vigilance, correlates threat intelligence, and ensures nothing falls through the cracks. For an SME, building an internal SOC costs $500,000+ per year. Outsourcing to Natrix gives you the same protection at a fraction of the cost.

What's Included in Our Cybersecurity Package

Multi-layer protection designed for SME budgets. Every layer works together to stop threats before they reach your data.

EDR — Endpoint Detection & Response

Advanced software on every device detects suspicious behavior in real-time and automatically isolates threats. Works even when offline.

MDR — Managed Detection & Response

Real security analysts monitor your systems 24/7, investigate alerts, and respond to incidents — not just automated software.

SOC — Security Operations Center

Our active SOC coordinates threat intelligence, analyzes attack patterns, and maintains continuous vigilance over your environment.

Advanced Email Filtering & Anti-Phishing

Blocks 99% of phishing attempts before they reach your inbox. Safe Links and Safe Attachments protect against malicious URLs and files.

Ransomware Protection with Behavioral Analysis

Behavioral AI detects encryption activity and stops ransomware before it can lock your files — even zero-day variants.

Monthly Vulnerability Scans & Remediation

Automated scanning of your network and systems identifies weaknesses before attackers do. Remediation is prioritized by risk level.

Security Awareness Training for Employees

Regular training sessions and simulated phishing campaigns turn your employees from a vulnerability into your first line of defense.

Incident Response & Recovery Planning

Documented incident response procedures and disaster recovery plans ensure your business knows exactly what to do when a breach occurs.
