I've had the opportunity to work with the team at BALANCED+ and have consistently found them to be professional, responsive, and easy to collaborate with. Their team demonstrates a strong commitment to customer service and takes the time to understand business and technical requirements. In particular, Isabella Mendoza has been incredibly helpful, proactive, and responsive throughout our interactions. I appreciate the partnership and look forward to continuing to work together in the future.

Altruvest Charitable Services has partnered with Balanced+ for our IT and cybersecurity needs, and the experience has been outstanding. As a national nonprofit handling sensitive data across our BoardMatch™ program, having a trusted partner who understands both technical rigor and the realities of a lean nonprofit team matters enormously. Balanced+ has strengthened our systems, improved our cybersecurity posture, and been responsive and clear every step of the way. Highly recommend them to any organization looking for a dependable, security-minded IT partner. Robert Lewocz, Executive Director, Altruvest Charitable Services

Close the doors attackers actually walk through

Many attacks do not start with someone breaking through a firewall. They start with someone signing in: a password reused from another site, a staff member who approved a sign-in request they did not make, an old account nobody switched off.

Our cybersecurity services in Toronto shut those doors, and put a security operations centre (SOC), a team whose only job is spotting and stopping attacks, on watch for anyone who still tries.

  • Unusual sign-ins, devices and network traffic watched 24/7 by our SOC
  • Multi-factor sign-in and account clean-ups, so a stolen password is not enough
  • Laptops and servers watched for ransomware and stopped when it starts
  • A 15-minute response when a critical problem stops work
  • A tested plan for the first hours of an attack
  • Controlled break-in tests that show where you are exposed
  • A technician on site anywhere in the GTA within the hour

A stolen password stops being a way in

If one password is all it takes to open someone’s email, an attacker only needs one good guess or one convincing fake login page. We make that password far less useful:

  • Multi-factor sign-in: a second check, such as a code on a phone, before anyone gets in
  • Account clean-up: leavers, old test accounts and shared logins found and switched off
  • Admin rights limited: only the people who need full control have it

And if someone does get in with a stolen password, our SOC sees the unusual sign-in and acts on it.

A plan for the first hours of an attack, rehearsed before you need it

When an attack hits, the first hours decide how bad it gets. Much of the damage comes from confusion over who decides what: who shuts down which systems, who calls the insurer, who tells staff and clients.

We work through those questions with your leadership in advance, write the answers down and walk through a realistic scenario, so the plan is familiar on the day it is needed.

Proof of your security for Toronto clients, insurers and auditors

Saying you are secure is easy. Showing it is what clients, insurers and auditors ask for. We help you show it:

  • Penetration testing: a controlled, authorised attempt to break in, with a report of what worked and how to fix it
  • Compliance readiness: your setup checked against the standard being asked for, and the gaps closed
  • Our own proof: SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certified, and a Fortinet Advanced Partner since 2003
Penetration testing

From exposed to watched around the clock in three steps

  1. Book a free security assessment

    A remote session of 30 minutes or less on how your accounts, devices and network are protected today.

  2. See your gaps and one price

    What we would fix first, what we would watch, and what it costs each month.

  3. Your systems go under watch

    We close the urgent gaps, connect your devices and network, and our SOC starts watching 24/7.

Straight answers about cybersecurity in Toronto

What do managed cybersecurity services include?

Watching your network, devices and sign-ins 24/7 through our SOC (security operations centre), acting on anything suspicious, keeping firewalls and security settings current, and agreeing a plan for an attack before it happens. Testing and compliance work can be added.

How much do cybersecurity services cost for a business our size?

A monthly fee, set mainly by how many people and devices we protect. You get the exact number after the free security assessment.

Our IT team handles security now. Do we still need you?

Most internal teams cannot watch systems around the clock. Many keep their day-to-day work and hand us the monitoring and response. That is co-managed IT.

Can we trust an outside team with access to our systems?

We are SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certified: independent audits of how we protect client systems and data.

How quickly do you act when something looks wrong?

Within 15 minutes when a problem is critical, meaning it stops people working. If it needs hands at your office, a technician can be on site anywhere in the GTA within the hour.

Do you only protect Toronto businesses?

No. Our head office is in Mississauga and we protect businesses across the GTA: Toronto (including North York and Etobicoke), Mississauga, Brampton, Oakville, Burlington and Vaughan.
