Cybersecurity
Monitored around the clock, with a clear plan for what happens after an alert.
Our managed SOC and 24/7 threat response service keeps your environment monitored around the clock, including nights and weekends. Monitoring is delivered through our 24/7 security operations center partner, and NorthStar runs the program around it: what is monitored, how alerts are escalated, and what happens next. It is built for healthcare practices, defense contractors, financial firms, and law firms that need to show continuous monitoring to auditors and insurers, not just promise it.
Detection only helps if someone acts on it. Each part below is built to shorten the time between an alert and a decision.
Security activity in your managed environment is watched 24 hours a day by our security operations center partner, so suspicious behavior is seen when it happens, not the next business morning.
Alerts are reviewed and triaged so real threats are separated from noise. Your team is not asked to chase every notification a security tool produces.
Confirmed threats follow an escalation path agreed in advance: who is contacted, in what order, and who can approve containment steps. NorthStar stays your point of contact.
A managed SOC is one layer. These controls sit next to it.
Endpoint protection on managed workstations and servers, managed as part of our cybersecurity services.
Monitoring and escalations are documented, which gives you something concrete to show when HIPAA, CMMC, FTC Safeguards, or cyber insurance reviews ask how you detect attacks.
Backup and disaster recovery make sure there is a restore path if an incident still gets through.
Managed SOC coverage is built for regulated organizations that are expected to detect and respond to attacks, not just block them.
These published case studies show monitoring, response, and documented controls in regulated environments.
Your organization remains responsible for its own compliance program. We help you implement and document the technical and administrative work that program depends on. Nothing on this page is legal advice or a certification.
