About SECaaS solutions
If you have an email account via Gmail, Hotmail or Yahoo, then you are using SaaS (Software as a Service). Security as a Service is the security-centric application of SaaS. Many people and firms today are running antivirus systems like Malwarebytes or McAfee on their devices, which are good examples of basic Security as a Service.
The fundamental difference this makes is that security is delivered “as a service” as compared to legacy on-premise security solutions. The as-a-service model, made possible by the advent of the cloud, provides you with an IT/network security platform without the need to invest in developing, managing and maintaining your own infrastructure.
Depending on your security needs and compliance requirements, there are many types of Security as a Service: threat monitoring and attack defence, data loss prevention, identity and access management, security assessment and auditing, and more.
The benefits of using a Security as a Service solution
Cost-efficiency
The Security as a Service model switches your CapEx into Opex, which saves you money. You pay only for what you need and use in a cloud-delivered service, plus enjoy faster time to market. Time is money.
Updated technologies and tools
Your Security as a Service solutions provider is responsible for keeping up with the latest security tools and resources. The model also offers a “slam-dunk” approach when the upgrade occurs: It covers your entire organization on every server, laptop and mobile phone.
Greater agility and better management
You can scale Security as a Service solutions up or down as needed or on demand. You can also achieve security status transparency for your firm via a co-managed model with your provider over a “single pane of glass” web dashboard.
Optimized resources
Since Security as a Service is provided externally, you lower your expenses for hiring and managing expert staff. Then you can allocate the money to where it’s most needed and your IT teams can focus on business priorities.

Why Choose CarefreeIT?
CarefreeIT was the first IT managed services provider (MSP) company in Ontario to develop and market a comprehensive cybersecurity bundle specifically targeted to the small-to-medium-sized business (SMB) market. We realized early on that SMBs were being targeted by hackers, were vulnerable, and were getting compromised. Unfortunately, cyber protection services were designed for enterprise-class companies and was unaffordable for SMBs. Our unique Total Protection Plan (TPP) solved the problem by delivering leading edge security protection to SMBs at an affordable cost.
The TPP provides 24x7x365 cybersecurity expert “live eyes” on your network. It also provides education for your team, a set of policies for you to implement, and dark web scanning on your behalf. It’s designed and delivered by certified cybersecurity experts. If the security of your systems and data are essential to your business, the TPP gives you the peace of mind to sleep well at night knowing your IT, your valuable data, and your reputation are protected.
No other MSP has the cybersecurity expertise, experience and services to protect your business both reliably and cost-effectively. We’re successfully protecting many business in the insurance, finance, accounting, legal, retail and non-profit industries.
