Clever Ducks

At Clever Ducks, security is the top priority. Their customers trust them with the “heart and soul” of their businesses: the systems that keep operations running smoothly. That level of trust comes with real weight, because a single breach or ransomware attack could be devastating. It’s a responsibility the MSP takes seriously.

That’s why Huntress immediately stood out. Instead of focusing only on known malware, Huntress looks for footholds and signals that an attacker may already be inside the environment. For Peter Kardel, CEO of Clever Ducks, this “out-of-band” approach felt fresh and far more realistic for the threats businesses face today.

Just as important, Huntress didn’t introduce the usual operational headaches. Deployment was fast and seamless, with all clients fully onboarded in under 24 hours. And there was no added management overhead. Even better, Huntress eliminated the noise. Unlike tools that flood teams with scary but unhelpful alerts, Huntress is backed by a human-led SOC—a 24/7 team of elite threat analysts working alongside AI. So, when an alert comes through, Clever Ducks is confident it’s real and actionable.

That confidence paid off during a weekend breach. The Huntress SOC flagged the activity early, allowing Clever Ducks to respond immediately. Weeks later, when the FBI arrived to notify the client, the issue had long been resolved.

Today, Huntress is non-negotiable at Clever Ducks. Clients aren’t considered fully supported until Huntress is protecting them.
