Sound familiar?
Getting an actual number means booking a call.
A demo, a discovery call, and a proposal that still says "starting at."
The quote grew after you signed.
Extras appeared that nobody mentioned on the call.
You are locked in for three years.
Long before you know whether the relationship was the right call.
Nobody will say what a device actually costs.
Just that it depends, and that depends on a meeting.
Every price on this page is the actual price. No meeting required to see it.
What does each plan cost?
Cub is $39 per device per month, Watch is $79 per device per month, Guard is $129 per device per month, Den is quoted.

Watch and Guard start at five devices. Below that, Cub has no minimum, and Cub is remote, so we serve clients on it anywhere in the country.
What do people ask about pricing?
- What does Cub actually get me for $39?
- Endpoint protection with ransomware defense, Windows patching kept current, and a security operations center watching the alerts around the clock. What it does not get you is someone fixing things. The monitoring tells you a problem happened and who to call; the call is charged at $145 an hour. That boundary is the reason it can be $39.
- Do you only serve Northern Virginia?
- For anything involving a person in the room, yes, and we say so plainly rather than promise coverage we cannot deliver. Cub is different because nothing about it requires a visit: it is remote monitoring, remote patching and remote ransomware protection. We serve clients anywhere in the country on Cub, including plenty who do not need on-site support at all.
- Does this help with cyber insurance?
- It usually does. Insurers increasingly ask whether you run endpoint protection with ransomware defense and whether machines are patched, and a no on either question changes your premium or your eligibility. Cub gives you a straight yes to both, in writing, which is often worth more than the monthly cost.
- Why publish prices when nobody else does?
- Because hiding them wastes everyone's time. If the number does not work for you, you should find that out in thirty seconds rather than after two meetings and a proposal.
- How long is the contract?
- Twelve months. Most of this industry writes thirty-six, and a three year commitment to a company you have just met is a lot to ask. Twelve is long enough for us to fix what needs fixing and short enough that we have to be worth renewing.
- Is the certification really included?
- Yes, on Watch and above. Those clients get certified to CyberCert Gold each year at no extra charge, and we do the work of getting you there. It is 27 controls, attested by you as the company director, with your name on the certificate. We include it because a certificate you can hand an insurer or a customer is worth more than us telling you we take security seriously.
- Why does the $79 plan not include support?
- Because it is a different product, not a cheaper version of the same one. Watch hardens the machine: only approved software runs, malicious sites are blocked, everything is patched, and you finish the year with a CyberCert Gold certificate. It does not come with a number to call, and we would rather say that on the price page than have you find out on a bad morning. Support starts at Guard, at $129, and it is unlimited when you get there.
- What counts as a device?
- Any computer we manage: desktops, laptops, and servers. We price on devices rather than people because devices are what actually gets patched, monitored and backed up, and because a shared machine on a shop floor is one thing to look after no matter how many people sign into it. Phones and tablets are not counted.
- What is not included?
- Hardware and software you buy, third party licenses, and large project work like a move or a full server replacement. Those get quoted up front, never billed as a surprise.
- Do you charge to come out?
- Yes. On-site visits are $145 an hour plus $72.50 an hour for travel, quoted before anyone drives out and never a surprise line on an invoice. On Guard and above, remote support is the part that is unlimited, and that is where the large majority of work actually gets done.
