Services

Managed IT, security, and advisory as one operating model.

A documented support relationship for businesses, with day-one security, cloud-first operations, and senior guidance when the stakes call for it.

Service Model

Start with the relationship. Layer the right expertise.

Most clients begin with a managed IT relationship: support, documentation, monitoring, lifecycle planning, and a commercial security baseline. From there, ETTE layers co-management, Virtual CIO (technology leadership), Virtual CISO (security leadership), AI advisory, or specialized infrastructure support based on what the organization actually needs.

Managed IT coreSupport, documentation, endpoint care, monitoring, patching, vendor coordination, and quarterly service review.
Security baselineIdentity, device, email, backup, awareness, and configuration controls managed from the start.
Advisory layersvCIO, vCISO, and AI advisory scoped when leadership needs planning, governance, risk ownership, or adoption support.

Managed IT Plans

Three plans. One question: how much do you want us to own?

Remote-Only, Fully Managed, and Co-Managed are levels of ownership, not separate service categories - security, cloud, and backup are included in every plan. Security & Risk, Cloud/Productivity/Backup, and Strategic Advisory below are the specialized services you layer on top, inside whichever plan you choose.

Every plan is scoped during a proposal conversation, so the mix of services inside it fits how your team actually works. See the full plan comparison and pricing, or talk with an advisor to find the right fit.

Service Areas

Four connected areas. One accountable team.

Most relationships start in one area and layer others over time. Use this map to understand how ETTE scopes the relationship; the links go deeper where a buyer or technical reviewer needs more detail.

Security & Risk

Day-one controls, then deeper risk leadership where needed.

Commercial security practices are part of the managed IT baseline. GuardRail makes posture visible, and Virtual CISO is available when an organization wants ongoing security leadership - often where auditors, funders, insurers, partners, or governance obligations are involved.

Cloud, Productivity & Backup

Cloud-first operations, with server support fully covered.

ETTE supports teams already operating in SaaS and cloud platforms, organizations moving in that direction, and environments that still depend on hosted, cloud, or on-premise servers.

Strategic Advisory & AI

Senior guidance when decisions outgrow ticket support.

vCIO focuses on technology direction, budget, vendors, and lifecycle planning. AI advisory is separate: Foundations, Depth, and Build support for governed adoption, team enablement, and later-stage custom or agentic workflows.

AI Advisory

Put AI to work without putting your data at risk.

Most teams already have shadow AI - staff using AI tools IT hasn't reviewed or approved - and no governance model. Our AI Strategy & Enablement practice starts with your outcomes, surfaces where AI is already in use, and builds a governed pilot program your team owns.

Actual response time depends on how a ticket is triaged, so these are the targets we manage to rather than a single flat number - severity varies too much for one guarantee to mean much. What you can count on: every ticket is triaged and prioritized the moment it's submitted, progress is visible in your quarterly reporting, and true emergencies escalate under the terms defined in your managed service agreement.
