IT ownership, not outsourced ticket support.
Ironguard runs IT for growing companies: support, security, Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, networks and projects, with one accountable person who answers for all of it.
30 minutes with a senior engineer. No slide deck. You leave with a written list of gaps, whether or not we work together.
Senior attention.
On every account.
No account managers, no tiered queues. The person who scoped your environment is the person who runs it.

How well is your IT actually owned?
Twelve questions a COO or CFO can answer without asking IT. Instant grade, no email required. Try three of them here.
- Scores ownership, security, operations and cost control
- Every zero-point answer is a finding you can act on
- Bring the result to a meeting and we map each gap to a fix
Three questions that decide whether an incident becomes a crisis. Answer all three to see where you stand.
Finish all 12 questions →Everything your company runs on, under one roof.
Most IT problems live in the gaps between vendors. We close the gaps by owning the whole environment.
Managed IT & employee support
Day-to-day support for your team, device lifecycle, onboarding and offboarding, and the vendor calls you don’t want to make.
Explore managed IT →Cybersecurity
A real security baseline: identity and MFA, endpoint protection, email security, backups you can restore from, and the evidence to prove it.
Explore security →Microsoft 365, Google Workspace & cloud
Identity, email, devices, file storage and licensing on Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, configured properly and governed so it stays that way.
Explore cloud platforms →Networks & infrastructure
Office, warehouse, lab and field sites. Firewalls, Wi-Fi, switching, internet circuits and the projects that tie them together.
Explore infrastructure →Cyber insurance readiness
A fixed-fee review that maps every questionnaire item to real evidence, so you answer honestly and your broker places a cleaner risk.
Explore the Review →Automation & AI governance
Policies and controls for how your team uses AI, plus the automation that keeps your environment consistent without manual checklists.
Explore automation →What ownership actually means.
Every MSP says “proactive.” Here is what we mean, in terms you can hold us to.
One accountable owner
Support, security, cloud, devices, networks and vendors under one roof, with a named person responsible for the outcome. No “that’s a different team.”
Automation-first operations
Onboarding, compliance checks and configuration drift are handled by code, not checklists. Nothing depends on someone remembering.
Documented, repeatable standards
26 written, owner-assigned operating procedures govern how your environment is run. Clear standards are how we can take real responsibility.
Evidence, not assurances
Backup restores validated on a quarterly schedule. Security controls you can show an insurer. Pricing published on the site. Nothing we can’t put in writing.
Standards we commit to in every managed agreement.
- Same-day offboardingEvery account and access removed the day someone leaves.
- Day-one onboardingLaptop, accounts and correct access ready before a new hire starts.
- Quarterly restore validationWe restore from backup on a schedule, not just confirm the job ran.
- Monthly license reconciliationCounts checked against headcount so you never pay for ghosts.
- Documentation that is yoursYour environment stays documented well enough that another provider could take over tomorrow.
- Scoped in writing before work beginsProjects, hardware and onsite coverage are priced up front. No surprise line items.
Built to run. No single points of failure.
Most IT relationships quietly depend on one individual’s memory. Ours is engineered so they never do: everything documented, everything monitored, every escalation path written down before it is needed.
Nothing lives in one head.
Every system, credential, vendor and decision is documented to a standard a qualified engineer could pick up cold. That protects you from us — and from everyone else.
Monitored by machines, not memory.
Automated monitoring, alerting and maintenance surface issues on their own instead of waiting for someone to notice. The system does the watching.
Senior people, no scripts.
The people who scope your environment are the people who run it. No tiered call queues, no drip campaigns, no promises we can’t keep in writing.
Three steps from first call to fully managed.
A 30-minute conversation
What is growing, what is breaking, and what you need someone to own. No slide deck.
Environment review
We look at your Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace tenant, devices, network and security posture, then write up what we found and what it will take.
Transition plan and go-live
Onboarding is a fixed-fee project (50% deposit), then a fixed monthly rate with clear standards and a named owner from day one. Managed plans start at 25 users.
Clear service.
Clear pricing.
Published rates, scoped in writing before any work begins. Most MSPs make you ask. We don’t.
Most multi-site engagements land between $150 and $200 once security requirements, sites and onsite needs are scoped. Onsite coverage, hardware, travel and major projects are scoped separately, in writing.
- Employee support and device lifecycle
- Security baseline: identity, endpoint, email, backup
- Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace administration and licensing
- Vendor management and executive reporting
Planning range only. Your rate is fixed in writing after a scoped review. Managed plans start at 25 users.
Insurance Readiness Review
Fixed fee, ten business days, read-only access. Every questionnaire item mapped to evidence.
30–75 users / 76–150 users. Credited in full toward onboarding if you become a managed client within 90 days.
How the Review worksStraight talk on running IT.
What managed IT actually costs, and why nobody will tell you.
Real numbers for managed IT pricing: what per-user rates typically cover, what gets scoped separately, and the questions to ask.
Read → SecurityThe worst security gap is the task everyone assumed someone else handled.
Real-world incidents rarely start with sophisticated attacks. They start in the unowned space between tools and teams.
Read → OperationsYour ticket can be closed while the problem is still very much open.
Ticket metrics measure activity, not outcomes. How to tell whether your IT provider fixes causes or closes symptoms.
Read →Based in Carlsbad. On site across San Diego County.
Our home market is North County San Diego, and we support multi-site teams across the country. When something needs hands on hardware, you get a person, not a shipping label.
San Diego IT support →Tell us what needs an owner.
What is growing, what is breaking, and where you keep chasing answers across vendors. We will start there.
