CINCINNATI, Sept. 21, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- IT Ally, an award-winning IT and Cybersecurity Advisory firm serving SMBs, has formally launched SMB Fortify™ to deliver strategic cybersecurity advisory, governance, risk and compliance expertise with the security and network operational excellence from Ascend Technologies as an end-to-end cybersecurity solution.

The combination of the strategic advisory from IT Ally and the operational excellence from Ascend, delivers a unique and tailored solution to protect against business impacting incidents.
"As SMBs have emerged as the new targets for ransomware and government sponsored hacking, we are seeing many of our clients shift their position on risk tolerance in the cybersecurity arena. Clients are also seeing increased demands from their customers to implement more robust cybersecurity protection. SMBs have typically under-invested in this area and having appropriate cybersecurity protection is beginning to surface as a competitive differentiator and strategy to preserve the valuation of their business. The SMB Fortify solution provides the resources, expertise, tools and techniques specifically designed for SMBs to become more resilient and cyber ready."
– Michael Fillios, Founder & CEO, IT Ally
"The SMB Fortify™ solution represents a perfect union of the capabilities of our two companies. With staggering statistics such as 60% of companies going out of business within 6 months of experiencing a security breach and, 74% of companies not getting their data back after paying a ransom, we consider cybersecurity to be the primary threat to the success of any company in the SMB space."
– Wayne Kiphart, CEO, Ascend Technologies
