If you already have full coverage with EasyITGuys, you may not need to take any action. If you have device security on any computers or servers with us, please read this notice. Cyberattacks are getting smarter, and recovery expectations are changing. To align with modern standards and keep responsibilities clear, we are updating what is included in our Device Security layer beginning January 1, 2026.
Most business data today lives in cloud platforms and user profiles, not only on local hard drives. Modern protection and recovery focuses on securing identities and cloud data first, then adding local device backups where they are needed.
The price stays the same: $50 per computer per month
Device Security now includes stronger protections than before, including:
24/7 MDR and EDR
Threat hunting
$100,000 cyber warranty (when device requirements are met)
In the past, some clients received local device backups as part of the $50 per computer package.
Starting January 1, 2026:
Local device backups are no longer included by default inside Device Security
Local backups for workstations and servers are now a separate layer that can be added based on your needs
The $50 per computer per month device security rate
Our approach to layered security. Device security is still a major part of the overall security stack
This change is about what is included inside the Device Security layer. It is not a reduction in security. It is a shift toward modern recovery standards.
If you want local backups for quick restore of workstation or server files, we can add that as a separate option.
Do nothing today. We will review your current setup during onboarding and quarterly reviews and will tell you clearly:
what you currently have
what is included
what is recommended
what is optional

Does my $50 per computer pricing change?
No. The price remains $50 per computer per month.
Am I losing security coverage?
No. You are gaining stronger security capabilities, including 24/7 MDR and EDR, threat hunting, and a $100,000 cyber warranty when requirements are met.
What exactly is being removed from the bundle?
Local device backups are no longer included by default inside the Device Security layer.
Are any backups still included?
This notice is about device security only. Cloud backups for email and cloud user data are handled under the Email Security and Cloud Backup layer.
Can I still get local backups for my computers or servers?
Yes. Local backups remain available, but they are now a separate layer and will be quoted based on what you need.
How do I know if local backups are right for me?
We will help you decide during onboarding and confirm it during your quarterly reviews based on your risk, operations, and budget.
