What We Do
HelpSystems has long been known for helping organizations become more secure and autonomous. However, over the years, our customers have shared with us that it has gotten harder and harder to protect their data. As technology plays an increasingly important role in the way organizations operate, cyberthreats are evolving to become more powerful than ever before. If there's one thing we've learned from being in an industry where the only constant is change, it's that being adaptable is the best way to grow in the right direction. So we've listened to our customers' concerns, problem-solved, and delivered with impressive results. Consequently, we're a different company today — one that is tackling cybersecurity head-on.
That's why HelpSystems is now Fortra, your cybersecurity ally. We're bringing the same people-first support and best-in-class portfolio that you've come to expect from HelpSystems, only now we're unified through the mission of providing solutions to organizations' seemingly unsolvable cybersecurity problems. We offer leading solutions like data security, infrastructure protection, managed services, and threat research and intelligence. Throughout every step of our customers' journeys, our experts are determined to help increase security maturity while decreasing the operational burden that comes with it. Because our team puts the same level of care into protecting our customers' peace of mind as their precious data.
We're driven by the belief that nothing is unsolvable.
