  • KVS365 Becomes a Huntress Partner | 24/7 Managed Cyber Security for Small Businesses

    At KVS365, our goal has always been simple:

    Make IT simple, secure, and reliable for small businesses.

    That’s why we’re delighted to announce that KVS365 is now an official Huntress reseller and partner, bringing industry-leading managed cyber security services to our clients. Huntress provides a managed security platform designed to detect, investigate, and respond to cyber threats around the clock, backed by a 24/7 Security Operations Centre (SOC).

    Why We’ve Added Huntress

    Cyber attacks are no longer just a problem for large organisations.

    Small businesses are increasingly being targeted because attackers know many organisations don’t have dedicated security teams monitoring their systems day and night.

    Traditional antivirus software is still important, but modern attacks often involve:

    • Stolen passwords
    • Account takeovers
    • Business email compromise
    • Ransomware
    • Unauthorised access to Microsoft 365
    • Hidden threats that avoid detection

    Huntress was built to bridge that gap by providing continuous protection, detection, and response capabilities backed by real security experts operating 24/7.

    What Does Huntress Actually Do?

    Think of Huntress as an extension of your IT and security team.

    Rather than simply alerting you that something suspicious has happened, Huntress actively monitors for threats and helps stop them before they become major problems. Huntress provides managed capabilities across endpoints, identities, and other security areas, supported by a 24/7 SOC.

    Protects Your Devices

    Every laptop, desktop, and server becomes part of a monitored environment.

    If ransomware, malware, or suspicious behaviour is detected, Huntress investigates the threat and provides guidance or response actions to contain it. Huntress Managed EDR is designed to provide continuous protection, detection, and response for endpoints.

    Protects Microsoft 365 Accounts

    Many cyber attacks now start with compromised email accounts rather than infected devices.

    Huntress monitors for:

    • Suspicious sign-ins
    • Unusual login locations
    • Account takeovers
    • Business email compromise attempts
    • Identity-based threats

    Its Managed ITDR service is designed to detect and respond to identity threats affecting Microsoft 365 and other platforms.

    24/7 Human Monitoring

    One of the biggest advantages of Huntress is that you’re not relying solely on automation.

    Their security analysts work around the clock to review activity, investigate alerts, and identify genuine threats, helping reduce the noise and false positives that many organisations struggle with.

    Faster Response to Threats

    The sooner a threat is identified, the less damage it can cause.

    Huntress combines technology with real-world security expertise to help identify, contain, and remediate threats before they disrupt your business.

    What This Means for KVS365 Clients

    Adding Huntress strengthens our security offering and helps us provide a more complete protection service for businesses that rely on Microsoft 365 and cloud services.

    By combining:

    • Microsoft 365 security
    • Device management
    • Cyber Essentials best practice
    • User awareness training
    • Huntress 24/7 threat monitoring

    we can help businesses reduce risk and gain confidence that someone is always watching for cyber threats.

    Is Huntress Right for Your Business?

    If your business relies on:

    • Microsoft 365
    • Email communication
    • Cloud services
    • Remote workers
    • Laptops and mobile devices

    then having professional monitoring and threat response in place is becoming increasingly important.

    Many small businesses assume they are “too small to be targeted”. Unfortunately, cyber criminals often see smaller organisations as easier targets.

    The good news is that enterprise-grade protection is now affordable and accessible to businesses of all sizes. Huntress was created specifically to provide advanced cybersecurity capabilities to organisations without large internal security teams.

    Why We Have Expanded Our Cyber Protection Services

    Cyber criminals no longer target only large organisations.

    In fact, many attacks are aimed directly at small businesses because they often don’t have dedicated security teams watching over their systems.

    At KVS365, we’ve always believed that cyber security should be simple, practical and accessible to smaller businesses.

    That’s why we’ve expanded our Protect and Complete packages with a new layer of managed cyber protection powered by Microsoft Security and Huntress. Huntress integrates with Microsoft Defender and provides managed monitoring and response capabilities backed by a 24/7 security operations team.

    Cyber Security Is About More Than Antivirus

    Many businesses think cyber security starts and ends with antivirus software.

    The reality is that modern attacks often involve:

    • Stolen passwords
    • Account compromise
    • Phishing emails
    • Unauthorised access
    • Misconfigured security settings
    • Human error

    Protecting against today’s threats requires more than simply blocking malware.

    It requires continuous monitoring, identity protection, security awareness and expert oversight.

    Microsoft Defender Is the Foundation

    Microsoft 365 Business Premium already provides an excellent security foundation through Microsoft Defender.

    We use Microsoft’s security tools because they are built directly into the Microsoft 365 platform that most of our customers already rely on every day.

    But even the best security tools still generate alerts that somebody needs to monitor and investigate.

    That’s where Huntress comes in.

    Microsoft Defender + Huntress

    My favourite way to explain it is:

    Microsoft Defender is the alarm system.

    Huntress is the team watching the alarms.

    Huntress works alongside Microsoft Defender to provide additional monitoring, investigation and response capabilities. Huntress states that it integrates with Microsoft Defender for Business, Defender for Endpoint and Microsoft Defender Antivirus to improve visibility, threat detection and response.

    Instead of simply generating alerts, the service helps identify threats, investigate suspicious activity and support incident response.

    What Is Included in Our Protect Package?

    Protect is designed for businesses that need more than standard IT support.

    Protect includes:

    ✅ Microsoft Defender Security

    ✅ 24/7 Threat Monitoring

    ✅ Managed Endpoint Detection & Response

    ✅ Identity Threat Monitoring

    ✅ Security Posture Monitoring

    ✅ Faster Threat Investigation

    Protect gives small businesses access to the kind of monitoring and response capabilities that would normally only be available to larger organisations.

    Plain English

    We help watch your systems, identify threats and respond before they become business problems.

    Complete Protection for Systems and People

    Technology is only one part of cyber security.

    Many successful attacks begin with a simple mistake:

    • Clicking a phishing email
    • Reusing a password
    • Approving a malicious sign-in request
    • Sharing information with the wrong person

    That’s why our Complete package goes further.

    Complete includes everything in Protect plus:

    ✅ Security Awareness Training

    ✅ Human Risk Management

    ✅ Phishing Awareness Support

    ✅ Ongoing Security Guidance

    ✅ Named Customer Contact

    ✅ Strategic Security Reviews

    Plain English

    Complete protects your technology and helps your people make safer decisions.

    Why This Matters

    The majority of small businesses don’t have a dedicated cyber security team.

    They’re already busy running the business.

    Monitoring security dashboards and investigating alerts shouldn’t become another full-time job.

    By combining Microsoft Security with Huntress monitoring and response services, we’re helping small businesses gain access to enterprise-level cyber protection without enterprise-level complexity. Huntress describes its service as combining endpoint detection and response capabilities with continuous monitoring from a 24/7 SOC team.

    Stop Being Hunted. Become the Hunter.
