In today’s digital world, small and midsize businesses are increasingly becoming the targets of sophisticated cyberattacks. While large enterprises often make the headlines, the reality is that smaller organizations are just as vulnerable, often more so, due to limited internal resources.
That’s why Open Approach has partnered with Huntress, a leading cybersecurity platform designed to provide proactive, continuous protection against emerging threats. This strategic move reflects our deep commitment to protecting the people and businesses we serve.
What Is Huntress?
Huntress is a powerful cybersecurity platform trusted by thousands of IT professionals across the country. Unlike traditional antivirus software that focuses on known threats, Huntress specializes in catching the subtle signs of compromise that often fly under the radar.
At its core, Huntress provides:
- Managed Detection & Response (MDR): Human-powered threat hunting 24/7
- Persistent Threat Detection: Finds and removes footholds that attackers use to launch ransomware or steal data
- Automated Incident Response: Fast remediation steps based on expert analysis
- Threat Intelligence & Reporting: Clear, concise reports that keep you informed
Think of Huntress as the digital watchdog always working behind the scenes—even when you’re off the clock.
Why We Chose Huntress
At Open Approach, we take a proactive stance on cybersecurity. Traditional security tools like firewalls and antivirus software are important, but they aren’t enough to stop modern threats. Hackers are getting smarter, more persistent, and more creative by the day.
We chose Huntress because it helps us bridge the gap between prevention and response. Their platform gives us the ability to:
- Spot suspicious behavior that most tools miss
- Respond quickly to potential threats
- Keep our clients safer without adding complexity or overhead
Most importantly, Huntress shares our philosophy: security should be human-driven, proactive, and designed to protect the people behind the business.
Better Together: A Layered Defense That Works
Huntress doesn’t replace the tools we already use—it enhances them. This layered approach means our clients benefit from:
- Traditional protections (firewalls, antivirus, backups)
- Next-gen tools like endpoint detection
- Human-powered monitoring and response from Huntress
It’s not just about stopping threats—it’s about stopping them fast, minimizing risk, and protecting what matters most.
