My Digital Shield Software
With security becoming a pressing concern for companies of all types, it’s especially important for small businesses to know they have a dependable software security solution. Founded by experts with over 17 years of experience in the IT industry, My Digital Shield is a versatile and dependable cyber security system; it's a particularly good fit for small businesses that need a strong security solution at an affordable cost.
While on-premise security solutions can cause computers to lag, My Digital Shield is completely cloud-based, meaning that no software has to be installed in order for the system to be fully operational. My Digital Shield easily monitors security and catches issues from the cloud, effectively blocking security breaches before they reach the internal network. By taking this preventive approach, small businesses are that much more protected from any type of online threat.
My Digital Shield protects against a variety of threats, including malware, viruses, and intrusions. The system keeps watch for any suspicious activity, and reports issues to company management as soon as they are detected. This way, business owners have real-time visibility into any issues as they arise, while being assured that their data is safe and sound.
We recommend this system to small to mid-size businesses in a variety of industries, including food and beverage, healthcare, real estate, retail, and more. As a web-based system, My Digital Shield can be easily accessed via a PC, Mac, or any device with a dependable Internet connection.

My Digital Shield Software Review
NA
Pros
My users find the functionality everything they need it to be. I also feel that given its low price its a very worthwhile investment. Another positive attribute is that the system is incredibly easy to use.
Cons
Some of my employees stated that the software interface seems to lack esthetics and could user a cleaner, fresher view.
Other employees noted that the reports the system produces seem overly simple and lacked the ability to include some data that could be useful for monitoring trends.

A revolution for guaranteeing maximum security to your business!
Guys, make this a flexible option for all businesses regardless of their sizes.
Pros
The most remarkable aspect of My Digital Shield Software is its cloud-based functionality and ease of usage. The cloud functionality enables users to access the system from any part of the world in seconds!
Cons
Not applicable for large businesses; however, it is perhaps the best you can get at such an affordable price.
Secondly, the saddest reason with this software is its incompatibility with Linux operating software.

Excellent Security at a Reasonable Price
Likes Best
MDS is providing security through complete internet traffic scanning. This will go a long way to securing devices for which AV software isn't available, such as printers, NAS units, and other IoT appliances.
Likes Least
The user interface is pretty industrial, and the reports seem over simplified.
Recommendations
There is no other product like this currently available.

Super easy and secure

It's very simple. I just have to pick a few options to secure my business. Also, Shield Test makes it very simple to understand security and how I am being protected.
Likes Least
The only thing missing for my needs is tunnel VPN support, but I hear that is coming soon.
Recommendations
Just try it. There's no real commitment, and it's very simple to install at a much cheaper rate than I was paying with AT&T.

Comprehensive network security that is simple to use.
Likes Best
My Digital Shield offers high end security at a reasonable price. Setup was easy and, most importantly, was PCI compliant.
Likes Least
No cons to speak off. There are not many products on the market that compete in this price range.
Recommendations
If you have more than 5-6 AV licenses, then this will save you money as well as offer infinitely more protection.

What a great product. I wish I found this before.
Likes Best
It is extremely simple; it works very well. There's no annoying stuff like with the desktop antivirus I had before. It's very fast, too. Usually, security means slow and problems, but we haven't had any slowness or problems.
Likes Least
They don't market very well. I didn't find out about them until recently.
Recommendations
Shieldtest.com looks like a good test to see how good the security is. You should check to make sure it does a good job at security and that it doesn't slow everything down.

We've been using this product for 6 months now and I must say, I'm really surprised. We used to always get some kind of virus or files encrypted and computers stopped working. Ever since we had this put in, all of that nonsense went away. I didn't even think it was possible to get rid of that headache. Very impressive!

I have been self employed for 33 years. I deal with State and Federal agencies every day, all day. I was having problems with continuous popups, to the point of interference with my entire working day. My email was also hacked which caused me much worry. I thought I was protected by having the "popular" antivirus software on my computer. I found out real quick, when I contacted them for their support and help, that it didn't cover the so called viruses my computer had been hit with. I was virtually put OUT OF BUSINESS. I was really stressed. It was 4th quarter and year end reporting time for me. Then, through a friend, I found out about My Digital Shield. Since the installation of My Digital Shield I now have peace of mind and no worries that my information can be compromised. I am thrilled at the affordability and performance of the product. Since the installation I'm no longer bothered by popups, ads, or threats and can finish my daily tasks in half the time it was taking me before. I would and have highly recommended this product to many of my customers and will continue to do so. When you're self employed you don't need the worries of anything like what happened to me before My Digital Shield came along. I feel confident this product has saved me much worry, stress, and money. I will continue to subscribe to it as long as I'm around. Also, and very importantly, My Digital Shield not only protects my business, it protects my entire family and their personal devices throughout my entire home.

I was looking for a solution for my home business. Its just me but I knew I needed something more protective than software downloaded on my laptop. I heard about My Digital Shield from my cousin's neighbor who runs an IT business in Cleveland. The price was super affordable and I can set content levels and be in complete control. They also provide free guest wifi which I love. I am very impressed with the quality of internet and protection I receive.
