01
Trace
Reconstruct message routes, account activity and available infrastructure signals.
CANO Cyber Defense
Protect what keeps your business moving.
Authorized. Defensive. Evidence-driven.
Security work that starts from how your organization actually operates. Every engagement is authorized in writing, every finding is supported by evidence, and the limits of that evidence are stated plainly.
Capabilities
Three groups, by where you are
01
Assess & Strengthen
Before anything has gone wrong.
- Cybersecurity Assessment
- A structured review of identity, email, endpoints, network and process, with findings ranked by real risk rather than listed alphabetically.
- Microsoft 365 Security Review
- Examining the configuration of the platform most organizations depend on, including the settings that are commonly left at default.
- Security Hardening
- Reducing unnecessary exposure across the environment, in a sequence agreed against operational disruption.
02
Prepare & Protect
Before you need it, so decisions are not made under pressure.
- Incident Readiness
- Agreeing in advance who decides, who is contacted, what is preserved and what the first hour looks like.
- Security Improvement Planning
- A prioritized, costed plan your team can actually complete, rather than a control catalogue.
03
Investigate & Respond
When something has already happened.
- Phishing Analysis
- Establishing how a message was routed, what authentication results it carried, and what it actually attempted.
- Business Email Compromise Support
- Working through account activity, mail rules and access to establish what was reached and what was changed.
- Investigation & Evidence Support
- Preserving and documenting available evidence in a form that remains useful to counsel, insurers or law enforcement.
Incident workflow
Written authorization precedes access.
The sequence does not change under pressure. Authorization is a gate, not a formality: nothing is examined before scope is agreed in writing.
- 01
Triage
Establish what is known, what is suspected and what is urgent.
- 02
Authorize
Written authorization defines scope and access before any examination begins.
Written authorization required
- 03
Preserve
Capture evidence before it expires, rotates or is overwritten.
- 04
Analyze
Examine what the evidence supports, and note what it does not.
- 05
Contain
Limit continued exposure with agreed, reversible actions.
- 06
Report
Document findings, timeline and the boundary of what was established.
- 07
Strengthen
Close the gap that allowed it, and verify the change held.
Evidence
Evidence, not guesses.
Digital evidence is genuinely useful and genuinely limited. Being precise about which is which is what makes a report worth relying on.
02
Correlate
Connect authentication results, platform logs and artifacts into a usable timeline.
03
Explain
Translate the evidence into clear findings, priorities and practical next steps.
Delivery principles
Clear scope. Evidence-led decisions.
Every engagement is designed to make the next decision clearer and leave your organization in a stronger operating position.
- 01
Written authorization and an agreed scope before access
- 02
Evidence preservation before artifacts expire or rotate
- 03
Reversible containment actions coordinated with your team
- 04
Security hardening prioritized against real operational risk
- 05
Plain-language findings and documentation you keep
Business-hours cybersecurity assistance. Scope and availability are confirmed in the written engagement. General service limitations are addressed in our Terms of Use.
Reporting a security concern
For a suspected security issue, contactsecurity@canotechnologies.com. Describe what you observed and when. Do not send credentials, recovery codes or confidential evidence by email — if sensitive material is needed, an approved secure transfer method is arranged first.
Security concern
Discuss a Security Concern
Whether something has already happened or you want to reduce the chance that it does, the first step is a scoped conversation.
