When ransomware comes for your business, we're already in the way.
Every 11 seconds, a business gets hit with ransomware. The average attack costs millions and drags on for 22 days of downtime — and most businesses never fully recover. Tech Bodyguard exists because your business deserves a fighting chance, not a ransom note. We build defense around how attackers actually operate, across Los Angeles, Orange County, San Diego, and the Inland Empire.
- Tech Bodyguard delivers ransomware defense in three layers: prevent (EDR, email filtering, training), detect (24/7 SOC monitoring and threat hunting), and recover (immutable backups, tested playbooks, incident response retainer).
- The free 15-minute Ransomware Reality Check scores your readiness across 20 categories and returns a letter grade with your three highest-priority fixes.
- You get a named security engineer and a real Security Operations Center — not an anonymous ticket queue or a remote-only vendor in another time zone.

We see attacks in progress, not after.
If the worst happens, you're back online in hours, not weeks.
Everything ransomware defenseactually requires.
Managed Detection & Response (MDR)
24/7 monitored EDR that isolates compromised endpoints automatically and escalates live threats to human analysts.
Application Allowlisting & Ransomware Blocking
Only approved software runs. Unknown executables and ransomware behaviors are blocked before they can detonate.
Email Security & Attachment Sandboxing
Inbound attachments and links are detonated in isolation, stopping phishing and malware at the most common entry point.
Dark Web Credential Monitoring
We watch breach dumps and dark web markets for your leaked credentials and force resets before they can be used against you.
Security Awareness Training
Ongoing simulated phishing and role-based training turn your team from the softest target into an active sensor.
Incident Response Retainer & Runbooks
Documented, tested playbooks and an on-call IR team so the first hour of an incident is rehearsed, not improvised.
Immutable Backups
Air-gapped, tamper-proof backups that ransomware can't encrypt or delete — the foundation of a real recovery.
MFA & Privileged Access Hygiene
Multi-factor everywhere and least-privilege admin design shut down the credential theft most attacks depend on.
What makes ransomware so dangerous for SoCal businesses?
