Co-Managed Security: Building a Stronger Defense Together

Cybersecurity is not just about firewalls and antivirus anymore. It is about protecting the lifeblood of your business—your people, your data, your reputation, and your ability to operate every single day. The stakes are higher than ever, and threats are constantly evolving.

At the same time, we know that no two organizations face the exact same challenges. Some teams have dedicated IT staff but need backup when the workload spikes. Others have talented generalists who could use deeper security expertise on their side. Many simply want peace of mind that someone is always watching their environment, even after business hours.

That is why we created Co-Managed Security. It is a new way to think about cybersecurity—one that blends your team’s knowledge of your business with our around-the-clock security expertise. The result is a partnership that keeps you secure, confident, and in control, no matter what comes next.

A Framework for Building Your Security Stack

Cybersecurity can be complex, but decision-making does not have to be. We developed a three-tier grid—Foundation, Advanced, and Enterprise—to serve as a guide for building your security stack. Each step shows you what protection looks like and helps you decide what is right for your business today.

• Foundation: Core protections like risk assessments, fractional vCISO services, and 24/7 SOC monitoring. Perfect for establishing a baseline of security and gaining visibility into threats.
• Advanced: Adds proactive defenses including endpoint protection, secure email filtering, vulnerability testing, and compliance alignment. Ideal for reducing risk exposure and staying ahead of attackers.
• Enterprise: Comprehensive protection at every layer, with advanced safeguards such as multi-factor authentication, zero trust endpoint security, UTM services, and proactive penetration testing. Best for organizations with complex environments or higher compliance requirements.

This grid is more than a service catalog. It is a roadmap. It shows where you are, identifies where gaps exist, and lays out the steps to close them.

Powered by a 24/7 SOC with Arctic Wolf

At the center of Co-Managed Security is nonstop monitoring and response from our Security Operations Center (SOC). We partnered with Arctic Wolf, a leader in managed detection and response, to deliver enterprise-grade protection around the clock.

With Arctic Wolf’s platform, your environment is monitored continuously. Their machine learning and analytics identify patterns and anomalies, while dedicated analysts review and escalate only what truly matters. When threats emerge, our Matrix engineers are notified in real time, and we work with you to act before the risk spreads.

It is enterprise-level security without the cost of building your own SOC.

Why Choose Co-Managed Security?

The real difference lies in how the service is delivered. This is not a one-size-fits-all outsourcing model. It is designed to be co-managed, which means:

• Direct access to your Matrix team: No call centers or faceless queues. You work with people you know and trust.
• Shared responsibility: You keep control, and we add expertise, bandwidth, and around-the-clock vigilance.
• A path to IT maturity: We focus on helping you reach a point where your organization feels confident, secure, and ready for growth.
