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 White Rock
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 White Rock 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 White Rock 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, cross-border USD payment changes, estate-client impersonation). 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 White Rock
Generic security templates miss the threats your industry actually faces. The threat playbook is tuned per vertical, and the phishing simulations are too. White Rock has its own threat mix because of the retirement-focused practice base and the Peace Arch crossing twenty minutes away.
Estate Planning and Wealth Transfer
Business email compromise (BEC), beneficiary-impersonation fraud, and trust-account protection for the estate-planning lawyers and wealth-management firms concentrated in the V4B corridor.
Marine Drive Retail and Hospitality
Point-of-sale malware, gift-card fraud, seasonal-staff credential abuse, and PCI scope monitoring for boutiques and restaurants along the Marine Drive waterfront and the pier promenade.
Healthcare and Specialty Clinics
EMR ransomware defence, insurance-claim phishing, and BC PIPA breach response for dental, optometry, and specialty clinics along Johnston Road and near Five Corners.
Real Estate Brokerage
Wire-fraud impersonation of conveyancers, listing-portal credential theft, and mobile-device protection for agents constantly between showings in White Rock and South Surrey.
Cross-Border Operations
USD payment-change fraud, currency-platform credential theft, and US-regulator impersonation for businesses operating across the Peace Arch crossing.
Solo and One-Room Professional Offices
Microsoft 365 takeover defence, MFA-fatigue attack protection, and isolated-endpoint recovery for solo practitioners who do not have an internal IT person to fall back on.
Compliance-Ready IT Baseline for White Rock Businesses
Every White Rock 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 White Rock
Hexafusion operates as a Dell authorized reseller and full-service IT supplier for White Rock 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 White Rock
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 White Rock 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 White Rock
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 (White Rock)
60 to 75 minutes
Drive time from our downtown Vancouver office (997 Seymour St, Suite 250) via Highway 99 and King George Boulevard. 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 border-area congestion. Force-majeure events (declared emergencies, wide-scale outages) are handled on a best-effort basis.
