Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR)
Behavioural endpoint protection on every Windows, Mac, and server. Catches the ransomware and credential-theft activity that antivirus signatures miss. Now the floor for cyber-insurance underwriting.

What 24/7 Cybersecurity Includes in Coquitlam
Six operational layers running together, every day. Each one catches what the layer before it missed. Each one is part of the standard managed cybersecurity scope for Coquitlam clients, not an upsell.
Managed Detection & Response (MDR)
EDR telemetry forwarded to a 24/7 security operations centre staffed by human analysts. Alerts are triaged, false positives discarded, and real threats handed back to Hexafusion for containment and recovery.
Incident Response Runbook
A documented 5-step process every Coquitlam client runs against: contain, investigate, eradicate, recover, lessons. Quarterly tabletop exercises keep the runbook live. Written incident reports go to leadership, insurer, legal, and any regulator.
Dark Web & Credential Monitoring
Continuous monitoring of breach dumps, paste sites, and underground marketplaces for credentials tied to your domain. Compromised credentials are surfaced within hours and rotated before an attacker reuses them.
Phishing Simulation & Training
Monthly simulated phishing campaigns tuned to industry-specific lures (CRA impersonation, real-estate wire fraud, vendor banking-update fraud). Just-in-time training the moment a user clicks. Baseline click rates drop from 25-30 percent to under 5 percent inside a year.
Vulnerability & Attack-Surface Monitoring
Continuous external attack-surface monitoring, monthly internal vulnerability scans, and cloud-posture management with prioritised remediation. SOC 2 and cyber-insurance ready.
Industry-Specific Threats We Defend Against in Coquitlam
Generic security templates miss the threats your industry actually faces. The threat playbook is tuned per vertical, and the phishing simulations are too. A Maillardville manufacturer faces different lures than a Town Centre law firm.
Professional Services
Business email compromise (BEC), wire-fraud impersonation, and trust-account protection for legal and accounting firms in the Town Centre towers near Lafarge Lake.
Healthcare and Clinics
EMR ransomware defence, insurance-claim phishing, and BC PIPA breach response for clinics in the Eagle Ridge Hospital corridor and along Austin Heights.
Light Manufacturing and Industrial
Vendor banking-update fraud, supply-chain attacks, and ransomware targeting Maillardville and Coquitlam West production. OT segmentation, immutable backups, and shift-aware monitoring.
Retail and Mall Tenants
Point-of-sale malware, gift-card fraud, and PCI scope monitoring for retail operators at Coquitlam Centre and along the North Road and Lougheed retail corridors.
Construction and Trades
Wire-fraud impersonation of suppliers, draw-request fraud, and site-office VPN protection for Tri-Cities builders working on Burquitlam towers and Riverview Lands lead-up.
Education-Adjacent Organisations
Research-data protection and student-information safeguards for training providers and non-profits near Douglas College David Lam Campus and Coquitlam College.
Compliance-Ready IT Baseline for Coquitlam Businesses
Every Coquitlam business we onboard receives a documented security baseline aligned to the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security baseline controls and the requirements your cyber insurance carrier is asking about on renewal questionnaires. This is the same baseline we apply to our own infrastructure, not a stripped-down small-business version.
- Identity and access. Microsoft Entra ID with Conditional Access policies, multi-factor authentication (MFA) enforcement on every account, and compliant-device sign-in checks.
- Endpoint protection. Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) on every Windows, Mac, and mobile device, deployed and active before the user receives the laptop.
- Disk encryption. BitLocker on Windows and FileVault on Mac, key-escrowed centrally so a lost device does not become a data breach.
- Email hardening. SPF, DKIM, and DMARC alignment plus anti-phishing and impersonation-protection rules tuned to your industry.
- Backup and recovery. Managed backups with documented retention and quarterly restore tests so you know recovery actually works before an incident.
- BC PIPA and PIPEDA aware. Audit logging, role-based access, and breach-notification process documentation kept up to date with the current Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada guidance.
Hardware Procurement and Secure Disposal in Coquitlam
Hexafusion operates as a Dell authorized reseller and full-service IT supplier for Coquitlam businesses, with access to authorized Canadian distribution channels for Lenovo, Apple, Microsoft Surface, and networking gear from Cisco Meraki, Fortinet, SonicWall, Ubiquiti, Aruba, and Juniper. Every laptop arrives pre-imaged with the security baseline, EDR active, and MFA enforced before the user touches it. Hardware is part of the security perimeter, not separate from it.
At end-of-life we handle decommissioning to a standard your insurer will accept. Drive sanitisation follows NIST Special Publication 800-88 guidelines (cryptographic erasure for SSDs, multi-pass wipe for spinning drives), every retired device generates a serial-numbered certificate of destruction for your PIPEDA breach-notification record-keeping, and devices beyond economic refurbishment are recycled through programs accredited by the Electronic Products Recycling Association (EPRA Canada).
Who you actually work with in Coquitlam
Hexafusion is led by founder Alex Barari, a former PCI DSS Internal Security Assessor with 15+ years in enterprise IT and cybersecurity. When an incident lands at 2 a.m. for a Coquitlam client, the response is led by people who have run real investigations, not a junior analyst escalating to a call centre. The same team writes the runbook, watches the alerts, and presents the post-incident review to your leadership.
Our quarterly business review (QBR) is a real strategic report, not a generic newsletter: engagement health score, financial recap, security-event summary, renewal calendar, and an AI-summarised executive paragraph delivered as a PDF to every client at the end of every calendar quarter. See the QBR page for a worked example.

Cybersecurity response times for Coquitlam
Critical SOC alert triage
Minutes
First human analyst eyes on a critical EDR or MDR alert within minutes on Enterprise plans. Automated containment plays while triage runs.
Endpoint isolation
Automated
High-confidence threats trigger automatic network isolation of the affected endpoint before a human is paged. Lateral movement is stopped at the device.
Emergency on-site (Coquitlam)
Within 1 hour 30 minutes
Drive time from our downtown Vancouver office (997 Seymour St, Suite 250) via Highway 1 or Lougheed Highway. Most containment is achieved remotely before a vehicle moves.
Written incident report
Same business day
Preliminary incident summary delivered same business day. Final report with timeline, root cause, and lessons within 5 business days.
24/7 SOC coverage and minute-level critical-alert triage apply to Enterprise plan clients. Professional plans receive business-hours triage with automated containment running around the clock. Emergency on-site windows are targets, not guarantees, and depend on traffic, weather, and Port Mann bridge conditions. Force-majeure events (declared emergencies, wide-scale outages) are handled on a best-effort basis.
