When your office catches fire, you do not call a general contractor. You call specialized firefighters who train constantly for that exact emergency. Yet when it comes to cybersecurity, most small businesses are relying on the equivalent of a handyperson with a garden hose.
The difference between those two approaches could determine whether your business survives the next cyberattack.
The Problem with Jack-of-All-Trades Security
Here is an uncomfortable truth:
"88% of small and medium business breaches involve ransomware, while businesses are targeted nearly 4 times more than large organizations"
(Source: Verizon 2025 Data Breach Investigations Report)
"32% of small business security operations are supported by managed security service providers, yet 66% still experienced cyberattacks" (Source: Ponemon Institute 2019 Global State of Cybersecurity in SMBs)
Many have managed service providers. They have "security included" in their bundles. Yet they still get breached.
Why? Because managing email servers and resetting passwords does not make someone a threat hunter. The skills required to keep computers running are fundamentally different from the expertise needed to stop sophisticated attackers.
Think about it this way. Your MSP excels at keeping your systems operational. That is valuable work. But when attackers are using credential theft malware, AI-powered phishing, and supply chain compromises, you need specialists who understand how criminals actually think and operate.
The Military Intelligence Difference
Secure Point Solutions was founded in 2019 by a former military intelligence expert with a specific mission: bring enterprise-level security to the 17 million small businesses that power 43% of America's economy.
Military intelligence is not about fixing computers. It is about understanding adversaries. It is about anticipating tactics before they are used. It is about thinking three steps ahead of threats.
That background shapes everything we do. When we assess your security posture, we are not running automated scans and checking boxes. We are asking: "If I wanted to breach this business, how would I do it?" That adversarial approach finds vulnerabilities that checkbox compliance misses completely.
What Adversarial Testing Actually Means
Most security assessments work like this: run a scanner, generate a report of known vulnerabilities, check off compliance requirements, move on. The problem? Attackers do not follow compliance checklists.
Adversarial testing means using actual attacker tactics, techniques, and procedures to find gaps in your defenses. We think like the criminals targeting your industry. We understand their motivations, their preferred methods, and their latest innovations.
For a CPA firm, we are testing whether attackers could compromise tax return data during your busiest season. For a law firm, we are seeing if someone could access privileged client communications. For a healthcare practice, we are verifying that patient records are actually protected, not just "compliant."
This approach has delivered zero repeat incidents for businesses that came to us after breaches. Zero. Because we fixed the actual problems, not just the symptoms.
Your Security Fire Department
We position ourselves as your security fire department because the analogy is exact.
Fire departments do not wait for fires to start. They inspect buildings for hazards. They verify fire suppression systems work. They create evacuation plans. But they are also ready to respond immediately when emergencies happen, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
That is exactly how we work. We monitor constantly for threats. We test your defenses using adversarial methods. We prepare your team through training. We document everything for compliance. And when an incident occurs, we respond immediately with specialized expertise.
You do not need someone managing your laptops and ordering toner cartridges. You need specialists who wake up at 2 AM when alerts trigger and know exactly how to contain threats before they spread.
No Bundled Services, Just Security
Most MSPs bundle security with help desk, hardware procurement, and general IT management. That sounds convenient until you realize you are paying $100 to $300 per user per month for services you do not actually need.
If you are a 25-person firm, that is $2,500 to $7,500 monthly. Meanwhile, we deliver specialized security for $425 per month. That is $5,100 annually versus $30,000 to $90,000 for bundled services that still result in breaches.
Our philosophy is simple: you should pay only for what you need. Most small businesses already have basic IT handled, either internally or through occasional break-fix support. What they lack is specialized security expertise. That is what we provide, without forcing you to buy services you do not want.
Transparent Pricing in a Hide-the-Ball Industry
Try getting pricing from most security providers. You will get "call for quote" followed by complex proposals where final costs bear little resemblance to initial estimates.
We show you the number up front: $17 per user per month for direct clients, $8 per user per month for IT provider partners. Period. No hidden fees. No surprise charges. No bait and switch.
That transparency reflects our Midwest values. We are based in Adel, Iowa, serving businesses across the United States. We believe in straight talk, honest pricing, and relationships built on trust, not contracts designed to trap you.
Speaking of contracts: ours are month-to-month (if you want). If we are not delivering value, you can leave. We earn your business every single month through results, not through legal lock-ins.
Who We Serve
We work with businesses of 1 to 50 employees across all industries, with particular expertise in compliance-heavy sectors: healthcare practices navigating HIPAA, CPA firms meeting FTC Safeguards requirements, law firms protecting privileged communications, and financial services firms dealing with SEC regulations.
We also partner with IT providers and MSPs who want to offer security services without high minimums or long-term commitments from "channel partners." We are happy being the silent partner who keeps your clients secure, or we will work directly with them as much as you would like. Your choice.
The Track Record That Matters
Here is the number that defines our approach: zero repeat incidents for breach victims we have worked with. Not one. When businesses come to us after attacks, we do not just clean up the mess. We fix the underlying vulnerabilities using adversarial testing and proper security architecture.
That is the difference between thinking like an IT provider and thinking like a security specialist. It is the difference between hoping you are secure and knowing you are protected.
