Small Business Security
Small Business Cybersecurity in Orange County
Real protection for small teams, at a fixed price.
Fixed-price cybersecurity for Newport Beach and Orange County businesses with 1–50 people. We secure your email, accounts, devices, and data, then keep it that way.
Small businesses are the most common target for phishing, email fraud, and ransomware, because attackers know most have no one watching. You don't need a 24/7 security operations center to fix that. You need the basics done properly: every account behind 2-Step Verification, email that can't be spoofed, devices and backups you can trust, and someone to call when something looks wrong. Code4 is based in Newport Beach and works with local businesses across Orange County. Every project is quoted up front at a fixed price, in plain English.
What's included
Everything you need to operationalize Small Business Security.
Email & account security
2-Step Verification for every user, admin roles reviewed, and account recovery set up so a stolen password can't take over the business.
Email spoofing protection
SPF, DKIM, and DMARC configured and moved to full enforcement, so scammers can't send email that looks like it came from you.
Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 hardening
Sharing, Drive, Gmail or Outlook, and third-party app access locked down to sensible defaults.
Devices & backups
Laptops and phones updated and encrypted, and backups checked so you can actually restore when you need to.
Staff phishing awareness
A short, practical walkthrough so your team knows what a fake invoice or login page looks like and what to do.
Someone to call
A local security partner you can reach by phone or email when something looks off, instead of guessing.

FAQ
How much does small business cybersecurity cost?
Most one-time projects for teams of up to 5 people are fixed-price and quoted before any work starts. Ongoing monthly plans are available if you want us to keep things maintained. Call or send a message and we'll give you a straight number.
Do you work with businesses outside Newport Beach?
Yes. We work with businesses across Orange County, including Irvine, Costa Mesa, Huntington Beach, Laguna Beach, Tustin, Santa Ana, and Anaheim, and most work can be done remotely for clients elsewhere in the US.
Do you help with personal or home computers?
No. Code4 works with businesses and organizations only. We don't offer home computer repair or personal device support.
We're tiny. Do we really need this?
Small teams are targeted precisely because they're easier to get into. One phished password can expose client data or redirect a payment. The basics we set up stop the large majority of these attacks.
