Compliance-Ready IT Baseline for Burnaby Businesses
Every Burnaby 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.
- Device 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. email authentication protections (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 Lifecycle Support in Burnaby
Hexafusion operates as a Dell authorized reseller and full-service IT supplier for Burnaby 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. Procurement is part of the managed service, not a sales transaction. Every laptop arrives at the user pre-imaged with the security baseline above, enrolled in Microsoft Autopilot, and ready to power on.
At end-of-life we handle decommissioning with the same care as deployment. Drive sanitization follows NIST Special Publication 800-88 guidelines (secure data erasure suited to each drive type), 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 Burnaby
Hexafusion is led by founder Alex Barari, a former PCI DSS Internal Security Assessor with 15+ years in enterprise IT and cybersecurity. We are not a national franchise reading from a playbook written somewhere else. Every Burnaby client is supported by the same Vancouver-based team that designs the security baseline, reviews the alerts, and shows up on-site when remote troubleshooting hits a wall.
Our technology business review is a real strategic report, not a generic newsletter: engagement health score, financial recap, onboarding progress, renewal calendar, and an AI-summarized executive paragraph delivered as a PDF once a year on Managed and Managed Pro, and every quarter on Enterprise. See the QBR page for a worked example.

Response & resolution times for Burnaby businesses
Initial response
Within 15 minutes
Every request acknowledged by a real technician within 15 minutes during coverage hours. Not an automated reply.
Emergency on-site (Burnaby)
Within 1 hour 30 minutes
Drive time from our downtown Vancouver office (997 Seymour St, Suite 250). Most issues are resolved remotely in minutes without a site visit.
Resolution (Professional & Enterprise)
Same day
Where Hexafusion manages your network infrastructure, issues are resolved the same business day, barring force-majeure events.
Remote support
Immediate
Most business-hours incidents are handled start to finish through secure remote access, no travel needed.
15-minute initial response applies to all plans during contracted coverage hours. Emergency on-site windows are targets, not guarantees, and depend on traffic, weather, and bridge conditions. On-site visits are billed by the hour plus travel on Protect and Managed. Resolution time varies by the nature of the issue and your plan tier. Most issues are fixed the same day; complex issues can take longer. Vendor escalations, hardware RMAs, carrier outages, and other third-party dependencies can extend resolution. Force-majeure events (natural disasters, wide-scale internet or power outages, declared emergencies) are handled on a best-effort basis.
