Why municipal IT is different
The risks are real. The compliance bar is high. The team is small.
Municipalities face the same threats as enterprises — but with fraction of the budget and staff. We built our services to close exactly that gap.
Municipalities are prime ransomware targets
Canadian municipalities have faced high-profile ransomware attacks that froze permit systems, payroll, and 911 dispatch. Attackers know budgets are tight and downtime pressure is high.
MFIPPA demands Canadian data residency
Ontario's Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act requires that citizen and operational data remain in Canada. US-hosted cloud services — even major ones — create real legal exposure.
Small IT teams, big responsibility
Most municipalities rely on one or two IT staff to cover everything from network outages to cybersecurity audits. That team needs a capable partner — not another vendor to manage.
Multiple departments, one point of accountability
From public works to finance to recreation, each department has different systems and risk profiles. A single trusted MSP simplifies governance and reduces gaps between teams.

A word from Doc 🛡️
“Council asked us to prove our IT is secure. We couldn't — until now.”
That's one of the most common things we hear from municipal IT leads. The problem isn't lack of effort — it's lack of proof. When your infrastructure is SOC 2 Type II certified and independently audited, you don't have to defend your security posture from scratch every budget cycle. The audit does it for you.
We work with municipalities across Ontario. We know how budget approvals work, what MFIPPA requires, and how to make the case to your CAO or council in plain language. No jargon. Just results you can stand behind.
Compliance & data residency
Your data stays in Ontario. Full stop.
MFIPPA requires Ontario municipalities to keep citizen and operational data within Canada. Our Sudbury, Ontario data centres give you a clear, auditable answer — not a legal grey area.
No US-hosted services. No ambiguous cloud providers with foreign subsidiaries. When your solicitor, auditor, or council asks where the data lives, the answer is simple: Sudbury, Ontario, Canada.
