South Florida Businesses
We are a cybersecurity company, and for businesses in South Florida that means finding out whether your networks, devices, data and web presence are safe from attackers, then fixing it. We are based in Aventura and focus our managed services on South Florida, where our engineers can be on site. Hurricane season, multi-site offices and fast growth are part of our daily work.
South Florida companies face the same threats as any other, plus a few of their own: a hurricane season that runs from June 1 to November 30, offices spread across Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach, a high concentration of financial and professional firms, and a business culture where growth outpaces process.
Our engineers are based in Aventura, so on-site support is a drive, not a flight. The remote tools and security practices of a national firm come with that local presence, for companies of every industry from 10 to 500 employees.
What we see in your industry
- The Florida Information Protection Act sets firm deadlines for breach notification.
- Hurricane season makes tested backups and off-site recovery a necessity, not a project.
- Growing companies outgrow ad-hoc IT faster than they can hire.
Florida's breach law sets clear deadlines. The Florida Information Protection Act requires notice to affected individuals within 30 days of determining a breach occurred, and notice to the Department of Legal Affairs when 500 or more Floridians are affected. Knowing what data you hold, and being able to determine quickly what was accessed, is what makes those deadlines achievable.
Resilience is the other local issue. Backups that sit in the same building as the servers do not survive a flood or a prolonged power loss. We design off-site and cloud recovery, test it by restoring, and keep a written plan that works when the office is closed.
Our team has built for exactly these conditions. It designed an email platform of more than 100,000 mailboxes spread across three regions so that no single failure took it down, and the same thinking scales down to an office: redundant internet circuits, a second copy of the data somewhere else, and a plan that names who does what when the building is closed.
Local presence still matters. When a switch fails or a new office opens, an engineer can be on site, and when a storm is forecast, we can walk through the plan with you before it arrives instead of after.
Two articles make good preparation. "The Florida Information Protection Act: A Breach-Response Checklist" lays out the notice steps in order, and "Backups That Actually Restore" covers restore tests and hurricane season for Florida firms.
Three newer articles apply to nearly every office we support: "Windows 10 End of Support and Microsoft 365 Hardening," "Cyber Insurance Readiness," which covers what underwriters ask before they quote a policy, and "PCI DSS 4.0.1 for Small Merchants" for any business that takes card payments.
Hurricane season is also a good reason to ask about our Disaster Recovery Planning practice and our Apocalypse IT Package, an offline continuity kit for any business. Related work on our track record: a Miami distributor's move to Google Cloud before hurricane season (illustrative), a law firm's hurricane-proof second-region failover and the 100,000‑mailbox email platform spread across three regions.
The Florida Information Protection Act: A Breach-Response Checklist for Florida Businesses
Florida gives businesses 30 days to notify people affected by a data breach. Most companies only discover how little time that is during their first incident.

Direct answers to the questions we hear most. Something else on your mind?
Send us a messageWhat does the Florida Information Protection Act require after a breach?
FIPA generally requires notice to affected Florida residents within 30 days of a breach being determined or reasonably believed to have occurred. It also requires notice to the Department of Legal Affairs within 30 days when 500 or more people in Florida are affected. Consumer reporting agencies must be told when more than 1,000 people are notified at once, and vendors must tell you within 10 days. Ask counsel about your situation.
Can you be on site if we have an urgent problem?
Yes, in Aventura, Miami and the rest of South Florida. Most problems start with a call or message, and many are solved remotely within minutes. When hands are needed, an engineer comes to you. Paying clients receive a response to every message within 15 minutes.
Do you support multi-site businesses?
Yes. We standardize networks, security and support across offices.
What size companies do you serve here?
Roughly 10 to 500 employees, from growing startups to established firms. Smaller teams usually want one partner for IT and security; larger ones often want us alongside their own staff. We also work with individual practices and family offices that need business-grade protection.
Do you work with companies in Broward and Palm Beach?
We serve Miami-Dade and Broward on site, and elsewhere remotely. Contact us about your location.
How does hurricane season affect IT planning?
It changes what you back up, where, and how fast you can work without the office. We keep an offsite, immutable copy of critical data, test restores before June, and arrange remote access, phone forwarding and cloud failover so staff can work from home if power or internet is out. Our backup article covers the checklist in detail.
