Cybersecurity

Your systems are monitored continuously, at night and at weekends as well as during the day. A critical alert triggers an immediate response from our team, at any hour. Routine requests, on the other hand, are handled during business hours. You stay compliant with Swiss requirements, without having to become a cybersecurity expert.

Methodology and process

Everything that keeps your business running
without friction.

01

Assessment

Initial audit

Your infrastructure is reviewed in detail. Workstations, servers, access rights, backups, network. We map what works, what is wearing out, and what deserves better. No rush, just clarity.

02

Action plan

Planning

A clear plan, calibrated to your business, your pace and your budget. What answers your needs is included, each line itemized and justified. You stay in control of priorities and timing throughout the project.

03

Deployment

Implementation

Tools, protections and automations are rolled out in stages. Cutovers are scheduled outside your peak hours. Your teams keep working as usual, with no interruption to ongoing operations.

04

Monitoring

Ongoing

Your infrastructure is monitored day and night. Updates run quietly while your teams sleep. Anomalies are handled before they become outages. You work, and the rest just keeps running.

05

Optimisation

Continuous

Optimisation runs without interruption. Performance is measured and tuned in real time. The small daily frictions are fixed before they grow into the kind of thing that disrupts your work.

FAQ

Avepto,
in a few questions.

Avepto runs the whole IT side of Swiss SMEs, on three fronts: managed IT, cybersecurity and everyday work tools. You stay focused on your business, we keep your IT running.

Avepto is the IT partner for Swiss SMEs. We handle three areas: managed IT (support, monitoring and backups of your IT), cybersecurity (protecting your devices, identities and data) and productivity (Microsoft 365, kSuite, virtual private network and telephony). You keep your core business, we run your IT so it works without you thinking about it.

Avepto supports Swiss SMEs, most often of 5 to 80 employees: professional practices, accounting firms, engineering offices and retail businesses, across French-speaking Switzerland. These are organisations with no in-house IT team, or a small one, that want managed IT rather than a string of break-fix calls. We take on the role of the IT team they don’t have of their own.

Avepto is based in Satigny, in the canton of Geneva, Switzerland. We work across all of Geneva and all of French-speaking Switzerland: Vaud, Valais, Fribourg and Neuchâtel. Most requests resolve remotely, with visits on site when useful. Everything is handled in-house, end to end, by our team in Switzerland.

The cost depends on the number of users, the scope entrusted and the security level required, as a predictable monthly flat fee rather than an emergency-driven invoice. For an SME in French-speaking Switzerland, the order of magnitude for managed IT sits between CHF 5.- and CHF 20.- per user per day. The audit prices your situation.

Outsourcing means entrusting your IT to a dedicated team instead of carrying it in-house. Your people stay focused on their core work while Avepto handles support, monitoring, backups and security. You gain complete IT expertise for a predictable monthly fee, with no one to hire or train. And the day an incident hits, you know exactly who to call.

MFA enabled,
account compromised.

Multi-factor authentication (MFA) guards the front door, not the corridors: a stolen session token lets an attacker walk in without ever forcing MFA. The answer comes down to two tools, explained simply: a SIEM that connects the signals and raises the alarm in minutes, and an EDR that isolates a machine behaving suspiciously.

Phishing and social engineering.

Punitive phishing tests breed mistrust and hidden mistakes: 65% of office workers already bypass security policies. Build a lasting reflex instead with realistic, progressive scenarios, blame-free debriefs, role-based content and metrics tracking reports and detection speed, not just who clicked a decoy link.

The signs your network is holding back your growth.

A saturated network slows staff and quietly costs deals long before anyone blames it, while teams hide the damage with workarounds like working off-peak. Two weeks of simple monitoring reveals latency, congestion and Wi-Fi drops; prioritise business traffic, then modernise in planned phases that limit interruption and spread the investment.

AI for productivity.

Five practical uses of AI for SMEs: finding a document, drafting, translating, answering customers, anticipating stock, and for each one the measure that says whether it brings anything. A three-month pilot is enough to decide. Many SMEs get there with ready-to-use tools; the real barrier is support, not technology.

IT backup.

A backup can report success and still be unusable on the day it matters, usually because it was never tested after creation. Keep copies on two separate sites, use immutable versions ransomware cannot overwrite, and set recovery-point and recovery-time targets per application so a nightly job never silently misses a day’s work. Then rehearse a full restore twice a year and time every step.
