Choose a protection level:
Cyber Security Foundation
Including EDR, Security Awareness Education, Phishing Tests, MFA Management, DNS Filtering/Scrubbing, Shadow IT detection and more.
THE MINIMUM LEVEL SECURITY MEASURES ORGANISATIONS SHOULD BE TAKING.
Cyber Security Plus
Foundation plus Vigilance 24/7 EDR and Active Monitoring, 365 Online Backup, Password Vault, Data Leak Protection, an extra layer of email scrubbing, Breach Activity Scans and Deep Vulnerability Scans.
IF YOUR ORGANISATION RELIES ON DATA FOR ONGOING OPERATION OR REPUTATION, YOU SHOULD HAVE SECURITY PLUS.
Both Kinetics KARE cyber security plans include a pack of services that help keep your information in, and cyber breaches out! Your data is precious and should be treated as such. The main issue with protecting information is that you can’t lock it away because you need to use it to operate.
With both plans, not only does Kinetics provide protection software, but also education for your staff so they can actively work in the safest way possible and know how to identify potential risk to your organisation. Kinetics will also test them and present you the findings, so no one gets left behind on the security front. From blocking harmful websites, to scanning emails and deep scanning with antivirus, Kinetics has you covered when it comes to cyber security services in NZ.
If you are looking for the best level of protection, the Security Plus plan provides a much deeper level of cyber security, with endpoint protection and response which alerts users to the risks of a downloaded attachment, disconnects any infiltrated devices from the network you are using, assists with the prevention of internal attacks and help organisations align with insurance compliance for a full circle or protection. Plus is the technical support that you need, when you need it, not an app or extension that has been downloaded as a cheap solution to security that has no professional on the other end overseeing security or data privacy issues.
And potentially, most important of all;
Kinetics Security Plus plan provides managed password solutions, so your staff don’t make the all-too-common error of creating easy to guess passwords and never changing them. KARE Password Vault is customised to each business and means not even Kinetics can see into your passwords, or your employees.
Still not sure what plan is best for you? Contact Us here, we’d be happy to help give you the cyber security service you need!

Is public WiFi safe?
Free public WiFi can be tempting.Whether it is in cafe, an airport or a shopping centre, free Wi-Fi is very tempting. Who wouldn’t want faster data, without the cost. But, as with anything that is free, be very careful! It is very easy to become a victim of something...
What can you expect if you get crypto-locked?
!Right now, there’s a crypto-locked server in the lab in our Kinetics Auckland Office. It’s not from one of our clients, but a business that’s come to us, after the event, asking for help. We are busy rebuilding it and restoring the data and configuration to the...
Are you meeting the requirements of your Cyber Insurer? (And are you minimising your risk anyway?)
Given the scale of cyber-attacks, we aren’t surprised to be hearing reports of insurers applying a "duty of care" test before agreeing to pay out. Despite sending chills up your spine, when you consider this, it makes sense as Insurers do the same thing to vehicles,...
3 billion devices are at risk. Does that include you? (it probably does)
An actively exploited high severity "zero day" cyber-security exploit has been found in the Google Chrome web browser. With over 3 billion users it will take some time for the update roll out to everyone. Meanwhile, everyone who uses Chrome on their PC is...
MFA is important, but it is no silver-bullet.
There are no silver bullets. No one can guarantee you won’t be hacked, but we can make it harder. We can reduce your cyber-risk by taking reasonable steps to make it harder to hack you. The key is to have layers of security, and to keep reviewing the technology in use...
Disaster at Kinetics
Sometimes, it feels like there is only bad news. All businesses face challenges with suppliers, our own people and even some of our customers. As managers, we work hard to get ahead of issues and create systems to mitigate problems, but there’s always something. ...
MS OFFICE ZERO DAY ATTACK – MAY 31st
One of the scariest news items to wake up to is that there is a ‘zero-day’ vulnerability in a common piece of software. That means that the hacking community has found an opportunity to hack a bit of software and there is no update yet – ‘zero’ days to apply a fix....
Beware – When Anti-Money Laundering (AML) CREATES a risk
That’s right. AML is not only frustrating to many of us, but it has also created cyber-risks. The irony isn’t lost on us. We’re honoured to support a large number of NZ law firms as clients, and it is a responsibility we take very seriously. Law firms handle such a...
Is MFA driving you mad?
Getting tired of having to open your phone for access? If so, you are not alone! But, its necessary. Hackers are counting on you suffering from an excess of having to reach for your phone to approve access, with something called “MFA Fatigue Attacks”.MFA Fatigue...
When QR codes go bad
Thanks to Covid, we’re all familiar with QR codes. Of course, with Covid, we were using the official tracer app to scan them, but in normal use, you can just use your phone’s camera to open the link. It’s a great way to make it easy to visit a website without having...
