Winslow Technology Group

Winslow Technology Group (WTG) isn't your average IT solutions provider. A seven-time CRN "Triple Crown" award winner, WTG sells leading-edge technology solutions to more than 1,200 active clients across healthcare, finance, legal, and even landscaping. Their specialty is helping mid-sized businesses modernize IT through expertise in datacenters, end-user computing, cybersecurity, and co-managed services via their premier platform, NorthstarMS. When WTG partnered with Huntress in 2023, they found what VP of Services & Security Matt Kozloski describes as a "common-sense choice" for cybersecurity. Since then, the Huntress Security Platform—featuring Managed Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR), Managed Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR), Managed Security Information and Event Management (SIEM), and Managed Security Awareness Training (SAT)—has delighted customers as one of WTG's security offerings.

Challenge | Offering robust security at an exceptional value

When evaluating Huntress, WTG was looking for a solution that could provide strong security at an affordable price. The team understood that cyber threats are constantly evolving, and that a managed solution could help reduce unnecessary alerts and improve focus.

Solution | Common-sense security with seamless integration

WTG chose Huntress primarily because of their ability to bring "common sense" cybersecurity to organizations at an accessible price point. Specific factors that contributed to WTG's ongoing success include:

Ease of business: Huntress streamlined the adoption process through "frictionless" quoting and quick deployments, allowing WTG to focus more on service delivery than administrative overhead.

Balanced approach: Kozloski describes Huntress as being "not too much or not too little," fitting well with the needs of many of WTG's client base. For WTG, Huntress strikes an optimal balance between advanced detection capabilities, ease of use, and cost.

Exceptional customer resources: Huntress is backed by a 24/7, AI-supported Security Operations Center (SOC) led by an elite team of threat analysts. They provide fast, agile support, guiding WTG's customers with high-quality, actionable alerts and remediation.

Integration with Microsoft Defender: Huntress works as a companion product to Microsoft Defender, amplifying its capabilities and helping organizations maximize their existing Microsoft investments. "With Huntress, we've found a sweet spot," says Kozloski. "It's a high-performance platform that integrates seamlessly with Microsoft Defender, delivers incredible ROI, and exceeds our client's expectations."

Innovative, impactful solutions: Features like Managed SAT's gamified episodes and the thoughtfully designed SIEM—featuring proprietary Smart Filtering tech that focuses on security logs—are enabling clearer detections and reliable security outcomes. "What's beautiful about Huntress is it's simple, intelligent, and common sense," exclaims Kozloski.

Results | Redefined value in cybersecurity

For WTG, cybersecurity is a non-stop, evolving strategy built on the NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0. Using the Framework as a blueprint, they're helping organizations spot risks, protect critical assets, detect emerging threats, and recover quickly when incidents happen. From vCISO advisory and compliance services to advanced detection, response, and security awareness training, WTG serves up a full spectrum of security solutions designed for real-world resilience.

One of the solutions powering that strategy is the Huntress Security Platform—the foundation that gives WTG's customers 24/7 coverage, expert-led threat response, and smart integrations that strengthen the tools they already use. Together, WTG and Huntress make enterprise-grade security accessible, scalable, and cost-effective for organizations of all sizes.

To date, notable results include:

Enhanced ROI: For mid-sized clients seeking EDR, SIEM, and SAT solutions monitored by a 24/7 SOC, WTG offers all Huntress solutions at affordable pricing. Clients are also maximizing their existing investments in tools like Microsoft Defender, giving them additional cost savings.

Risk reduction with fewer resources: Paired with WTG's NorthstarMS, the Huntress Security Platform gives WTG's customers a full suite of managed cybersecurity solutions without the overhead of employing a full-time security engineer.

WTG and Huntress have proven that cybersecurity doesn't have to cost a fortune or involve endless complications to make an impact. Through Huntress' thoughtfully designed, purpose-built solutions, WTG empowers thousands of customers to achieve scalable, resilient, and cost-effective security. Kozloski sums it up best, saying, "The combination of Huntress and our co-managed platform not only protects clients but does so without the cost and complexity of assembling an in-house security team.
