What Secur01 does

Secur01 is a Quebec-based cybersecurity and IT risk management services firm that provides managed security (MSSP), professional security testing, strategic consulting, and GRC services to organizations of roughly 5 to 1,000 employees, primarily in Quebec and Canada. The offering is organized as a core managed suite, Cyber360 — bundling 24/7 SOC-style surveillance, a virtual CISO (vCISO), sensitive-data protection, and unlimited technical support — extended by a deep catalog of modular professional services (vulnerability scanning, penetration testing, network security evaluation, technical IT audits, phishing tests, Red Team/Blue Team exercises, awareness training) and a GRC layer that addresses Loi 25 compliance, ISO/SOC 2/NIST certification support, cyber-insurance advisory, Compliance-as-a-service, and IT vendor risk management.

Underlying technology is a services wrapper around best-of-breed third-party security tooling (EDR, SIEM, SOAR, vulnerability management, IAM); no proprietary platform is disclosed, and AI/ML capabilities are not positioned as a differentiator. Pricing is quote-based, with both turnkey (clés en main) and à-la-carte packaging, and a 24/7 emergency incident-response channel. The customer base is dominated by Quebec SMBs and mid-market firms across construction, IT services, and general business, including named references such as Blue Eden Technologie, Mezra, Via Construction, and Groupe ISM.

The business model combines recurring managed-services revenue with project-based professional-services and consulting engagements, distributed through direct sales supported by content marketing (blog, newsletter, LinkedIn, Facebook) and partner webinars. Since 2023, Secur01 has operated as part of HNA S.E.N.C.R.L., a top-20 multidisciplinary Quebec accounting firm, providing it with cross-sell distribution into accounting/audit clients. The firm holds SOC 2 Type I, SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and Employeur Élite certifications and, in April 2026, expanded its portfolio by becoming a registered private security agency.
