ThreeShield covers all of your compliance and control requirements without limiting ourselves to checklists and absolutes because we understand that your business isn't exactly like all of the others.

Yes, we can do an insurance or compliance checklist. However, the results that ThreeShield provides are much more comprehensive than a Big 4 accounting firm that need to use strict checklists that junior accountants can complete. Instead, we take a holistic view of the company, dig through risk and vulnerability scenarios and then complete assessments with industry-standard checklists to make sure that we didn't miss anything.

Similarly, we provide holistic information security and proactive IT management services by balancing risk management, business requirements, usability, and resources. This allows us to build or tweak your systems and policies in ways that many cookie-cutter managed service providers would refuse to do.

By building this holistic approach into our culture and quality assurance processes, everyone at ThreeShield ends up delivering results that IT-only and checklist-focused companies simply cannot match. Here are examples of what our clients have said about our approach:

ThreeShield operates under two guiding principles:

1. Treat our employees, clients, and community members as people.
   Our founders have intentionally created a culture that avoids many of the problems that we felt as "working numbers" in big accounting, government, and Fortune 50 companies.
   Our flexible work environment with interesting side projects and respectful management are some of the reasons why our employees often comment about how much happier they are than their friends in "the big corporate world."
   In addition to the security awareness training that we provide to schools, seniors, and community organizations, we have implemented B-Corp standards and legal commitments to sustain our "people before profits" culture.
2. Provide real information security.
   Most IT support shops say that they provide cybersecurity services. However, when you dig deeper, few of them have Certified Information Systems Security Professions (CISSP), Certified Information Systems Auditors (CISA), or staff with decades of experience improving security for governments, Fortune 50 companies, and innovative Silicon Valley companies.
   Those that do typically use cookie-cutter approaches and compliance checklists or by-the-book security principles. The truth is that compliance and security maxims do not provide real security. ThreeShield digs through vulnerabilities, constantly improves our approach and toolset, and customizes what we do for each client.

Employee Benefits:

• Exposure and education
  Your first few months at ThreeShield might feel like a fire hose. You won't be stuck in a dark room watching a SEIM like other SoC jobs. You won't be answering endless calls about basic IT support (our proactive processes increase our clients' reliability beyond what most MSPs and MSSPs can offer, so they don't need to take time out of their day to reach out for support as often). Instead, you'll gain exposure and mentorship around advanced information security, in-depth configurations for Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, various endpoint detection and response platforms, various firewalls, Azure, AWS, and the latest in cloud protection. We encourage regular professional development, and you'll be expected to obtain CISSP and CISA credentials as soon as you qualify. This seems like a lot, but you'll have a great team to support you along with experts who have worked in cybersecurity for everything from bitumen mines to rockets.
• Flexible work environment
  We need to make sure that our clients' needs are met when they need them, but don't artificially restrict work hours.
• Home Internet
  Most of our team members work from home, so we pay for employee Internet bills as a tax-free benefit.
  Employees are responsible for calculating any personal use of their Internet bill for tax purposes
• Telecommuting
  Wasting hundreds of dollars a month and hours per day on commuting isn't worth it. Although ThreeShield employees must live and work in Canada for data residency, police background checks, and security purposes, most of us work from home most days with limited client and office visits.
• Extended health benefits
  Dental, vision, paramedical, life, critical illness, prescription drugs, out-of-country and major medical, etc.
• Health Spending Account (HSA)
  for costs that our "Gold Level" insurance plan doesn't fully cover.
• Paid sick leave
  Our approach to work is really flexible and we take a proactive approach to health (like everything we do). However, sometimes, even working from home isn't an option. We want to make sure that our teammates can recover quickly with adequate rest and that our clients get fully-focused consulting. To this end, we provide a flexible sick leave program.
• Paid medical, dental, vision, and vaccination leave
  We take a proactive approach to security and well-being. To this end, ThreeShield pays for the time our team members spend at annual medical checkups, biannual (fully paid) eye exams, vaccinations, and dental checkups (every 9 months).
• Employee & Family Assistance Program (EFAP)
  , concierge drug advocate for high-cost drugs, virtual physician and healthcare service
• Pizza days
  Just because we work from home doesn't mean that we can't enjoy some office perks. With staff from Vancouver to Toronto, these are harder to arrange than they used to be when everyone was in Calgary, but we still make an effort to have them once in a while.
• Employee laptops
• Leading-edge cybersecurity tools
  are an essential part of our job. At ThreeShield we don't only use the best commercial and open-source tools, but we also develop leading-edge tools. As a result, our team is the first to have access to this new technology.
