Frequently asked questions about cybersecurity in Vizcaya

How much does a cybersecurity service cost for a business in Vizcaya?
It depends on the number of devices, the complexity of your network and the level of protection required. At IBERSYA we carry out initial no-obligation audits for businesses in Vizcaya and País Vasco, and propose a plan tailored to your budget.
Does my business in Vizcaya need a 24/7 SOC?
If your business handles sensitive data, operates in regulated sectors (Industria siderúrgica y metalúrgica, Energía) or has critical infrastructure, a SOC is highly recommended. For smaller businesses, we offer managed EDR protection with alerts and response.
Do you offer on-site cybersecurity support in Vizcaya?
We offer immediate 24/7 remote support and can travel to Vizcaya for audits, installations and in-person training. Our office is in Valladolid.
What is EDR antivirus and why is it better than traditional antivirus?
EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) does not just detect known malware — it monitors process behaviour in real time. If something suspicious occurs on a device at your business in Vizcaya, the EDR isolates it automatically before it spreads. It is the difference between prevention and reaction.
Does IBERSYA comply with NIS2 and ENS regulations?
Yes. Our solutions are aligned with the Spanish National Security Framework (ENS) and the European NIS2 Directive. We use products listed in the CCN's CPSTIC catalogue, guaranteeing the highest level of compliance for businesses in Vizcaya.
