Huntress helped hbs connect quickly isolate and remediate a malicious USB threat before it could disrupt a customer.

Managed EDR
Managed ITDR

For hbs connect, cybersecurity has to be reliable at the worst possible times.

Late on a Friday afternoon, a customer's employee plugged a USB into a work laptop. The device carried a crypto-mining tool and other malware. It started trying to deploy immediately.

But Huntress caught it immediately.

Within 10 minutes, Huntress alerted hbs connect, isolated the device, and put together a comprehensive, easy-to-follow remediation plan. That quick response helped hbs connect contain the threat before it could spread and gave them a clear path to clean up the issue. 

MSPs know threats don't respect business hours. That's why Huntress gives hbs connect confidence that someone's watching, even at the end of a long week.

For us, [Huntress] really does make us sleep better at night.
