Experiencing a cyber attack or breach right now?

Our incident response team is on call 24/7. Call immediately — the first hour matters most.

Who We Are

The Cyber Arm Security is the dedicated cybersecurity division of Group 4 Networks, Toronto's managed IT firm serving businesses since 2008. We handle the security layer — 24/7 SOC monitoring, managed detection and response, incident response, and Canadian compliance — for those same clients.

Because we share the same client base, our SOC starts with full knowledge of your Microsoft 365 environment, network, and backup systems. No repeated onboarding. No gap between your IT team and your security team.

What that means in practice

  • 50+ businesses in the G4NS + TCA network

    Law firms, financial advisors, healthcare practices, and real estate brokerages across the GTA.

  • Under 15 minutes — contractual incident response

    Written SLA, not a best-effort target. 24 hours a day, including weekends and holidays.

  • CISSP and CIPP/C certified on every file

    Certified security and privacy professionals, not junior analysts following a playbook.

  • 100% Canadian data residency

    All monitoring and log processing stays in Canada. Documented in your service agreement.

  • GTA on-site dispatch within 4 hours

    Physical response available when remote containment is not enough.

Why businesses in regulated industries choose The Cyber Arm

Most cybersecurity vendors sell tools. The Cyber Arm Security delivers a security team — analysts who know your environment, who respond when something happens, and who can stand beside you in a compliance review.

Because we are the security arm of Group 4 Networks, clients who already have their IT managed by G4NS get a significant advantage: our SOC begins with full knowledge of your Microsoft 365 tenant, network, and backup systems. No repeated onboarding. No gap between your IT team and your security team.

For businesses in law, finance, healthcare, and real estate — where a breach carries regulatory consequences, not just technical ones — that matters.

Contractual response time: under 15 minutes

Not a target. An SLA with written terms. Critical incident response in under 15 minutes, 24 hours a day, including weekends and holidays.

GTA on-site capability when needed

Remote monitoring backed by a team that can physically dispatch to client sites across the Greater Toronto Area for ransomware recovery, server isolation, or post-breach review.

CISSP and CIPP/C certified on every file

Not just a certification on the wall. Every client engagement involves certified security and privacy professionals — not junior analysts following a playbook.

Compliance that comes from real client situations

PIPEDA breach notifications, PHIPA access-request responses, OSFI B-10 readiness reviews — handled for real G4NS clients, not simulated. That experience informs everything we do.

Part of a trusted technology group

The cybersecurity arm of Group 4 Networks

Group 4 Networks has managed IT for Toronto-area law firms, financial advisors, healthcare practices, and real estate brokerages since 2008 — serving 50+ businesses across the GTA. The Cyber Arm Security was created as the security layer on top of that: the same relationship, a dedicated team, focused entirely on threat detection, incident response, and Canadian compliance.

For existing Group 4 Networks clients, The Cyber Arm SOC begins monitoring with full knowledge of your IT environment — your Microsoft 365 tenant, network, and backup systems. No repeated onboarding, no gap between your IT team and your security team.
