Managed IT Services & Cybersecurity in Bellevue, WA

Most Bellevue business owners we talk to share a common frustration: they don't actually know if their IT is okay. They pay monthly invoices, occasionally hear from their IT provider when something breaks, and hope for the best. That's not good enough for firms handling client data, financial records, or sensitive business information. We built Athencia around visibility and accountability. Every client gets access to the Athencia One Portal, a single dashboard that shows your IT health at a glance using simple green, yellow, and red indicators. No jargon, no buried reports, no wondering. You can see exactly where you stand at any time. We also believe in a single accountable layer. Your IT, security, and compliance shouldn't be spread across three different vendors who point fingers when something goes wrong. With Athencia, you have one relationship and one team responsible for the whole picture. We're a founder-led company, not a private equity rollup or a franchise. Jeremy Phillips, our founder, has over 30 years of hands-on Microsoft experience (including managing environments with over 16 million mailboxes). That Microsoft fluency matters in Bellevue, where M365 and Azure are table stakes. We specialize in professional service firms with 5 to 75 employees because that's where we can make the biggest difference. We're not trying to be everything to everyone. If you're tired of wondering whether your IT is actually okay, we should talk.

Thinking about switching from your current IT provider? We make the transition straightforward.

Professional service firms in Bellevue handle exactly the kind of data that attackers want: client personal information, financial records, M&A materials, legal documents protected by privilege, and healthcare data subject to HIPAA. A law firm with access to deal documents or a CPA firm with client tax returns represents a high-value target, especially during busy seasons when staff are distracted and more likely to click on something they shouldn't. Our cybersecurity services for Bellevue businesses include endpoint detection and response (EDR) through Huntress, which provides 24/7 monitoring by human security analysts, not just automated alerts. We also deploy email security to catch phishing and business email compromise attempts, DNS filtering to block malicious websites, identity threat detection to catch compromised credentials, and security awareness training so your team knows what to watch for. For Bellevue firms with compliance obligations, we support the frameworks that matter most in this market: SOC 2 for technology and consulting companies, HIPAA for healthcare providers and their business associates, GLBA for financial advisors and wealth managers, and the SEC's newer cybersecurity disclosure rules for registered investment advisors. Our ControlMap integration provides continuous compliance monitoring against the CIS Controls framework, giving you a baseline that maps to these regulatory requirements.
