Recommendations to others considering 7 Layer Solutions:

This would be a great company to have come in to check your environment "before" your company has an incident like our company expeirneced. It was much harder to fix the compromise after the fact then it would have been to secure it properly before anything happened. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is 7 Layer Solutions solving and how is that benefiting you?

We had an issue where our former IT provider had not properly secured a couple of our administrative accounts and they were compromised.
