SmartBundle™
End-to-End Security Offerings for the Public Sector

Massive volumes of sensitive information across interwoven systems make the public sector an extremely soft target for cyberattacks. The legacy security systems employed by the local governments and public utilities do not offer sufficient protection against diverse and sophisticated cyberthreats. An example is the rising instance of 911 outages across the country. The security issues and emergency dispatch downtime demand measures that involve up-to-date endpoint protection software, and cloud backup that offers ample data retention and malware scanning.

This is where SmartBundle^™ has positioned itself as a leading managed service provider (MSP) to a broad range of critical industries, including local government, public utilities, finance and accounting, agriculture, and community healthcare providers. “We offer a complete range of cybersecurity and cloud services, coupled with our own data center infrastructure, to keep our clients’ networks and computers secure and operational,” says Mark Langenfeld, Head of Product and Operations, SmartBundle™.

SmartBundle™ specializes in endpoint security solutions designed to address even the most complicated security issues that threaten the public sector. The company has standardized its security offerings through a proven suite of products and services custom-configured to address the specific needs of the public sector. It includes endpoint protection software from cybersecurity industry leaders complete with anti-virus, anti-malware, anti-spam, firewall, and email archiving measures, backed by robust private cloud services, aptly named SmartBundle™ Application Delivery.

By choosing a private cloud offering such as SmartBundle™ Application Delivery, clients gain a robust and flexible information network that can be scaled to fit their size and requirements. The service enables businesses to extend their office network into secure data centers.

SmartBundle™ has data centers in Minneapolis, Phoenix, and Ashburn that host huge amounts of data and applications and deliver superior data protection.

The company also offers comprehensive endpoint security for workstations and servers utilized in day-to-day operations, in addition to being readily available for critical situations, such as natural disasters.

To consistently maintain security, SmartBundle™ regularly audits their infrastructure and releases the results of their testing to the public. This helps the company gain the confidence of civic organizations, municipal governments, healthcare providers, insurers, and financial firms, leading them to choose their cloud solutions for storing sensitive data. SmartBundle™ also fosters a team of skilled technicians and engineers to ensure everything runs smoothly, with optimal performance. The team proactively monitors clients’ systems and networks and is available for on-site, as well as remote support, 24/7.

SmartBundle™ has always been keen on staying ahead of the market trends. The evolution of the company’s product portfolio is a testament to that. To address the need for user awareness regarding security, SmartBundle™ brings its next generation products—part of their new ShadowLock and GovLock security suites for cybersecurity training and threat awareness. The training solutions include interactive videos and quizzes on specific topics, like phishing emails. The company is also developing dark web scanning tools that will be useful for clients, specifically in the healthcare and financial industry. The tools will show compromised websites and potential information that’s leaked on the dark web, including passwords, personally identifiable information (PII), or Protected Health Information (PHI).

Finally, SmartBundle™ is working on improving its system for more efficient audit trails that blend well with the security offerings. It will further enhance tracking of changes made on the servers and workstations they support, ultimately ensuring potential leakage of sensitive data is a problem of the past. “We focus on spreading awareness among clients to prevent them from becoming victims of increasingly sophisticated attacks,” concludes Langenfeld.
