THE BOTTOM LINE
Both manage IT. Only Securafy guarantees you won't get breached.
NexusTek offers competent managed IT services and has built a solid reputation for helpdesk support and infrastructure management. Their security offering follows the industry-standard detect-and-respond model. Securafy takes a fundamentally different approach: Prevention-First architecture that eliminates the attack vectors responsible for the vast majority of breaches. For Ohio businesses in healthcare, financial services, legal, or manufacturing — where a single breach can cost millions and trigger regulatory penalties — the reactive vs. preventive distinction is the difference between business continuity and business catastrophe.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions from businesses comparing Securafy and NexusTek.
How does Securafy's security model differ from NexusTek's?
NexusTek's security model is primarily detection-based — deploying tools that monitor your environment and alert when threats are detected, then responding to contain and remediate. Securafy's Prevention-First model uses ThreatLocker Zero Trust application whitelisting and AI-driven threat intelligence to prevent attacks from executing. The practical difference: Securafy clients have zero ransomware incidents post-onboarding. The industry average annual breach probability ranges from 28–48% depending on sector.
Is NexusTek or Securafy better for healthcare organizations?
For Ohio healthcare organizations subject to HIPAA, Securafy's Comply-CARE tier provides comprehensive compliance management at a fixed monthly rate — including risk assessments, policy documentation, technical safeguard implementation, workforce training, and audit preparation. NexusTek offers HIPAA compliance support but typically scopes it as a separate engagement with additional project costs.
How does the 10-minute response guarantee work?
Securafy's 10-minute response guarantee is contractual — for critical issues, a Securafy engineer responds within 10 minutes or service credits apply. This is not a response-time target or best-effort commitment; it's a binding SLA with financial accountability. NexusTek's SLA varies by tier and issue priority, with critical response windows typically ranging from 1–4 hours.
Can I try Securafy before switching from NexusTek?
Yes. Securafy offers a 30-day risk-free trial for all new clients. This allows you to evaluate Securafy's security stack, response times, and team quality in your actual environment before fully transitioning. Most clients run the trial alongside their existing provider, then transition at contract renewal.
What industries does Securafy specialize in?
Securafy has deep vertical expertise in banking and financial institutions, healthcare and medical practices, legal firms, manufacturing and defense contractors (CMMC), law enforcement and government, country clubs, veterinary practices, CPA and accounting firms, and commercial real estate. Each vertical has specific compliance requirements and threat profiles that Securafy's team understands at the engineering level.
