IT Services and Cybersecurity in Denver, CO

From LoDo and the Golden Triangle to the Denver Tech Center and Interlocken, Denver offices run on Microsoft 365, cloud applications and networks that have to ride out hail, high-wind power shutoffs and spring blizzards. NetSys is the IT company that takes all of it off your plate, from the help desk and security to backups, vendors and compliance paperwork, and runs it remotely from Brooklyn.

Compare support scope

The short answer

NetSys is a managed IT and cybersecurity company that supports Denver organizations remotely. One agreement covers an engineer-staffed help desk, laptops and Microsoft 365, ThreatDown managed detection and response, firewalls and Wi-Fi, backups with tested restores, vendor management and IT consulting. Denver is about 1,630 miles from our Brooklyn office, so NetSys does not send engineers on site anywhere in Colorado: equipment arrives pre-configured and your staff or cabling contractor connects it. The help desk answers from 2 a.m. to 9 p.m. Mountain time every day, monitoring runs 24/7, and pricing is per user per month after an assessment, on month-to-month terms.

  • One office, in Brooklyn, NY; Denver and the rest of Colorado are supported remotely, and NetSys does not send engineers on site in the state
  • Laptops enroll in Intune and Windows Autopilot before they ship; firewalls and access points arrive configured for your staff or cabling contractor to install
  • Monitoring and emergency service run 24/7; the help desk is staffed seven days a week from 4 a.m. to 11 p.m. Eastern time (2 a.m. to 9 p.m. Mountain)
  • Month-to-month agreements and 98% client retention

What an IT company handles for a Denver business

The Front Range economy is broad. Metro Denver Economic Development Corporation counts nearly 268,000 healthcare and wellness jobs across more than 20,000 companies, 58,800 private aerospace jobs and 102,780 in financial services, and most of the employers behind those numbers are small: law and accounting firms downtown, medical and dental groups in the suburbs, engineering studios and distributors near the airport. Few of them employ a full-time IT person, and the ones that do rarely want that person resetting passwords. As your IT company, NetSys takes the whole list under one agreement: the help desk, laptops and phones, Microsoft 365 accounts and licensing, email filtering, ThreatDown on every device, Keeper for shared passwords, backups with restore tests, the firewall and Wi-Fi, and the calls to your internet provider, copier company and software vendors. If you already have an IT lead, we can take a defined share instead, such as security monitoring or a cloud migration, and leave the rest with them.

How remote onboarding works for a Denver office

Denver is roughly 1,630 miles from our office, so the service is remote, and we say so in the first conversation: no NetSys engineer will be sent on site anywhere in Colorado. Onboarding usually takes three to four weeks for a 20-person office. First the NinjaOne agent goes onto every computer and we document the environment in IT Glue: accounts, licenses, circuits, vendors and passwords. Next we review the Microsoft 365 tenant for stale accounts, gaps in multifactor authentication, risky sharing links and mail rules that forward outside the company. Then devices enroll in Intune, ThreatDown, Barracuda and Keeper go in, and replacement laptops are drop-shipped to the office or to employees' homes, ready for first sign-in. A new firewall or access point arrives configured, and your office manager or low-voltage contractor mounts it with our engineer on the phone. Because Brooklyn is two hours ahead of Denver, patches and checks finish before your staff arrive.

Industries we serve in Denver and the systems they run

The region's large employers shape the work. Lockheed Martin, BAE Systems, United Launch Alliance and Sierra Space anchor an aerospace supply chain of machine shops and engineering firms that receive defense drawings under NIST SP 800-171. UCHealth and Children's Hospital Colorado on the Anschutz Medical Campus, Denver Health, Intermountain Health and HCA HealthONE sit at the center of a large network of physician groups, clinics and dental offices. Charles Schwab and Wells Fargo run major corporate offices in the region, and investment advisers, lenders and family offices fill floors along 17th Street and in Cherry Creek. Law firms work near the state and federal courthouses downtown, accounting firms track Denver's own head tax and sales tax for clients, and distributors work the I-70 corridor out toward the airport. Each runs a core application we describe generically, such as an EHR, a document management system, tax software, a warehouse system or an ERP. We manage the identity, devices, network and backups underneath, and we work with the vendor when their application fails.

Office space, circuits and the buildings Denver firms work from

Denver's office market is moving, and that changes the IT plan. In the second quarter of 2026, downtown vacancy stood at 38.6 percent and River North at 42.3 percent, while the Southeast submarket that includes the Denver Tech Center sat at 26.4 percent, and the metro posted its strongest quarter of net absorption since early 2022. Firms are signing new leases, consolidating floors and moving between downtown and the Tech Center, and every move is an IT project: circuits ordered months ahead, a network designed before the low-voltage contractor arrives, and phones, printers and Wi-Fi working on the first morning. Options to check at your address include Comcast Business, Lumen and Quantum Fiber, the fiber business AT&T bought from Lumen in February 2026. Older buildings and suburban office parks may offer only one wired carrier, so we design for two paths where the building allows it and add a cellular backup on the firewall where it does not.

Hail, wind shutoffs, blizzards and a run of Colorado breaches

Colorado gives a continuity plan plenty to work with. The May 8, 2017 hailstorm on the west side of the metro remains the state's costliest insured catastrophe, at about $2.3 billion. In April 2024 Xcel Energy carried out its first public safety power shutoff, de-energizing lines to about 55,000 customers during a windstorm, and total outages topped 150,000 across nine counties. The March 2021 blizzard dropped 27.1 inches at the airport and closed its runways for more than a day. The cyber record is just as instructive: SamSam ransomware hit the Colorado Department of Transportation in 2018 and recovery took more than six weeks, Denver Public Schools disclosed in 2023 that an intruder had taken employee health-plan data including Social Security numbers, and the state's Medicaid agency reported that a contractor's MOVEit server exposed data on more than four million people. Our design response is data in Microsoft 365 and Azure, independent backups held outside Colorado, laptops as the real workplace, UPS units sized for a clean shutdown and a written plan for an office without power.

Colorado data-security law in plain terms

Three Colorado statutes reach almost every business that keeps personal information about Colorado residents. C.R.S. 6-1-713 requires a written policy for destroying paper and electronic records with personal identifying information once they are no longer needed. C.R.S. 6-1-713.5 requires reasonable security procedures suited to the information and the size of the business, and requires that service providers given that data protect it too. C.R.S. 6-1-716 requires notice to affected residents no later than 30 days after a business determines a breach occurred, notice to the Attorney General when 500 or more residents are affected, and notice to the national credit bureaus above 1,000. Larger data handlers also fall under the Colorado Privacy Act, which applies at 100,000 consumers a year, or 25,000 when the business earns revenue or discounts from selling personal data. Industry rules sit on top: HIPAA, the FTC Safeguards Rule, SEC Regulation S-P and DFARS. We put the technical controls in place and keep the evidence; your attorney decides which rules apply. This is general information, not legal advice.

Common Questions

Denver, CO FAQs

Who provides IT services in Denver?

Denver companies can choose between local IT shops whose technicians drive to the office and remote managed service providers. NetSys is the second kind: a managed IT and cybersecurity company founded in 1998, with its only office in Brooklyn, supporting Denver organizations remotely. One month-to-month agreement covers the help desk, devices, Microsoft 365, security, backups, the network and your technology vendors, with a dedicated account manager who has a real cell number. If your business needs a technician in the building every week, we will tell you at the start that we are the wrong fit.

How does IT support work for Denver organizations?

Your staff reach an engineer by phone, email or Teams from 2 a.m. to 9 p.m. Mountain time, seven days a week, and monitoring and emergency service run 24/7. We manage computers through NinjaOne and Intune, accounts through Microsoft Entra ID with Conditional Access, and firewalls and access points through their cloud consoles, so almost every fix is remote. NetSys does not send engineers on site in Colorado. Replacement hardware ships configured, and physical jobs such as moving a desk phone or mounting an access point are done by your staff or cabling contractor with our engineer guiding them.

How does remote onboarding work for businesses in Denver?

It runs in stages so nobody loses a working day. In the first week we install monitoring, document the environment and close the riskiest gaps in Microsoft 365, such as accounts without multifactor authentication. Devices then move into Intune one group at a time, often over a weekend, and staff sign in on Monday to the same files and email with stronger sign-in protection in place. New laptops ship ready to use. Your account manager sends a short plan before each step, and the help desk takes calls from day one.

How much do IT services cost for a Denver company?

Managed IT and IT support are priced per user per month after an assessment, and we do not publish a rate card. For a Denver company the figure moves with headcount, the number of devices per person, whether servers remain in your office or everything runs in the cloud, the security tools included and the compliance evidence your clients, auditors or insurer expect. Projects such as an office move or a tenant migration are quoted after scoping. There is no long-term contract; if the service stops being worth the fee, you can leave.

What services do you offer to businesses in Denver?

The core is managed IT: help desk, device and Microsoft 365 management, patching, monitoring, backups and vendor management under one per-user fee. Around it sit cybersecurity services such as ThreatDown managed detection and response, email security, KnowBe4 training, Rapid7 vulnerability scanning and penetration testing; network and Wi-Fi management on Cisco Meraki or Fortinet; compliance work for HIPAA, the FTC Safeguards Rule, SEC Regulation S-P and NIST SP 800-171; and IT consulting projects such as cloud migrations, Copilot rollouts and office moves.

Is NetSys a Denver company?

No. Our only office is at 1 Prospect Park SW, Suite 6E, Brooklyn, NY 11215, and the main line is 845-203-3914. Denver runs two hours behind Brooklyn. In practice that means our engineers have been working for a while by the time a Denver office opens its doors, and maintenance scheduled overnight is long finished. What we cannot offer is someone in your building; instead the service relies on cloud management, equipment that arrives configured and your own staff or contractors for anything physical.

How fast do you respond when something breaks?

Our written response commitments: critical issues get a phone response within ten minutes and a remote response within thirty, and standard issues get thirty minutes by phone and an hour remotely. Ransomware, a dead internet circuit, a mail outage or a system that is down goes straight to your dedicated engineer rather than into the queue. In the last three years we have handled more than 30 ransomware incidents and fully recovered every one, and clients with a disaster recovery plan in place were working again within 24 hours.

Can you test our security before we sign anything?

Yes. Our one free offer is an external penetration test: a remote test of the systems your Denver office exposes to the internet, such as the firewall, VPN, email gateway and any published servers, within a scope we agree in writing before we start. You get a report of what an outside attacker could see and reach, ranked by severity. It does not examine internal systems or settle compliance questions; that work belongs to onboarding or a separately quoted project.
