AI Powered Cybersecurity & Governance for Startup & SMB : In-house 24×7 SOC

Day One Cybersecurity & Governance
for Startup & SMB

Nobody is watching your team's laptops, email, WhatsApp, browsers and apps, until a leak or a phishing click costs you. MedhyaShield takes control from Day One: devices, email & apps monitored, security & privacy policies, staff trained to spot attacks and our in-house 24×7 SOC.

01Why MedhyaShield: The Problem We Solve

Nobody Is Guarding Your IT Systems While You Are Busy Building the Product or Offering Services

Most startups and SMBs run on a founder, a small team and a race to win the first customers. Whether you build a product or deliver a service, the work happens on personal laptops, phones and cloud apps that nobody controls. You may have an IT person, but almost never a security engineer. So if a stranger were reading your mailbox tonight, copying your customer list or redirecting an invoice, nobody would notice. Everything works, right up to the day it does not.

1Current Startup & SMB Problem

How many of these are true in your company today?

Personal Devices Nobody ControlsPersonal laptops and phones doing company work
Nobody Knows Who Can Copy WhatCode, contracts and customer lists in shared drives
Unlicensed & Unapproved SoftwareCracked tools, expired trials, random SaaS sign-ups
No Policies, Training or AuditNothing to hand over when a customer asks
Gaps in IT & Data PrivacyPartial MFA, untested backups, no PDPL / GDPR controls
Nobody WatchingNo security engineer, no SOC, no budget for either
2What Founders and Owners Tell Us

Four things we hear every week, and what each one costs.

We hearWe will look at security when something happens.
The damage

By the time you notice, an attacker has been reading your mailbox for weeks. A customer has already paid a fake invoice into their account, and that money is gone.

Fix: 24×7 SOC from Day One
We hearWe are a small company. What do we have to lose?
The damage

Your client list, your bank balance and the deal you are chasing. Attackers target small companies precisely because nobody is watching, and one stolen password is enough.

Fix: monitored from Day One
We hearWe do not store anything important.
The damage

Your mailboxes hold passports, salaries, contracts and bank details. Under UAE PDPL, and GDPR if you serve EU customers, a leak is your legal problem, not your provider's.

Fix: data controls from Day One
We hearMicrosoft 365 / Google handle our security.
The damage

They secure their cloud, not your company. A password reused on a breached site, a public sharing link or an unmanaged laptop is how most incidents start.

Fix: devices & MFA from Day One
3The Moment You Go Bigger, Someone Asks for Proof

Questionnaires, audit reports, certifications, insurance forms. No evidence, no deal, whether you are 5 people or 100.

How We Calculate the In-House FigureIllustrative estimate in USD, before 5% UAE VAT. Adjust the salary above to match your market.
Security EngineerThe entry-level salary you selected, $1,500 to $3,000 per month.
SOC / MDR RetainerAbout $15 per employee per month, $1,000 monthly minimum, for 24×7 cover.
Compliance & ToolsAutomation, awareness training and domain monitoring: about $700 per month plus $2 per employee.
EDR / Email LicencesNot priced on either side: included in Shield Complete, your own licences with Shield Core.

One security engineer cannot provide 24×7 coverage alone; the in-house column still needs the SOC retainer.

05FAQ: Questions Founders Ask

Questions Founders and IT Leads Ask Us

Straight answers on fit, the SOC, timelines, licences and billing. Anything else, ask MedhyaAI.

Startups and small-to-medium businesses with 5 to 100 employees that need the security and compliance larger companies have, without hiring a security team. Larger organisations, MSPs and resellers get volume pricing and multi-tenant options from our sales team.
Our Security Operations Center is staffed by MedhyaShield's own analysts around the clock, every day of the year, not outsourced to a third party. MedhyaAI triages and contains threats using your pre-approved playbooks; our analysts verify, investigate and escalate critical incidents to you.
Most customers are protected within 48 hours: connect Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, deploy the endpoint agent via MDM or a self-install link, and the AI baseline starts immediately. Compliance programs typically reach audit-ready in 6 to 12 weeks.
Not with Shield Complete: EDR and BEC email security licences for one device and one mailbox per employee are included in the price. Shield Core is for teams that already hold EDR and email security licences; we integrate your existing tools via API at no additional charge.
Yes. The platform enforces the controls insurers ask for (MFA, EDR, email security, backups, training, 24×7 monitoring) and produces a one-click evidence pack for insurer questionnaires. Cover and premiums remain the insurer's decision, but you arrive with the evidence they ask for.
Yes. Monthly Shield Core can be cancelled with 30 days' notice and runs to the end of the paid month. Annual plans (Shield Complete, or Shield Core billed annually) run to the end of the 12-month term and are not refunded mid-term. Upgrades from Shield Core to Shield Complete apply immediately, downgrades take effect from the next billing cycle, and seat counts adjust as employees join or leave. Payments are non-refundable, see our No Refund Policy.
MedhyaAI detects and, using your pre-approved playbooks, typically contains the threat within minutes (isolate the device, block the sender, reset the session). An in-house analyst verifies it, and if it is critical you get a call and a WhatsApp from a named analyst with what happened, what we did and what we need from you. You see the full timeline in Incidents when you wake up.
Very little. An admin login to Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, a list of employees (or we pull it from your directory), and a way to reach your devices (MDM or a self-install link we send to each person). We handle the tenant setup, policies and baseline; most teams spend under two hours on it in total.
