Managed IT and Cybersecurity for Portland Manufacturers
Bytagig is a managed IT and cybersecurity provider headquartered in Clackamas, Oregon, serving manufacturers with 25 to 200 employees across the Portland metro and Clark County. We keep production systems running, keep the plant floor separate from the office network, and give you the documentation your customers and insurer now ask for. We have been doing this since 2009.
Managed clients typically get a first response in about 15 minutes.
99% client satisfaction over the past 90 days.
More than 95% of clients stay with us long-term.
75+ businesses currently rely on our support.
Our team includes 15-plus technicians.
What does IT downtime cost a manufacturer?
When the network goes down, the line stops, orders slip, and people stand around on the clock. Most manufacturers we meet do not have an IT department. They have one person who also runs purchasing or the floor, and IT gets the leftover hours. We take that load off and work to stop outages before they happen: 24/7 monitoring, patching scheduled around your shifts, and tested backups for the systems that run production.
What we manage for manufacturers
Network Segmentation
Plant floor and office networks, separated so a phishing email in the front office cannot reach the machines that run production
Engineering Workstations
Workstations for CAD, CAM, and quality systems
Shop Floor Devices
Shop floor Wi-Fi, scanners, and label printers
Microsoft 365 and Email
Microsoft 365, email security, and multi-factor sign-in
Backup and Recovery
Backup and disaster recovery for ERP, file servers, and machine programs
Help Desk
Help desk with a 15-minute average first response for managed clients, measured across tickets
We work alongside your ERP or MES vendor. They own the application. We own the servers, network, security, and user access it runs on, and we open and follow the ticket with them when something breaks.
How do we protect production from ransomware?
Attackers go after manufacturers because downtime is expensive and the pressure to pay is high. Our approach is layered so one mistake does not stop the plant:
24/7 Endpoint Protection
Endpoint detection and response on every device, watched 24/7 by our security operations center
Plant Floor Isolation
Network segmentation between office IT and plant floor equipment
Immutable Backups
Backups that cannot be altered or deleted by ransomware, with restores tested on a schedule
MFA and Training
Multi-factor sign-in and security awareness training for every user
Incident Response Plan
A written incident response plan, so everyone knows who does what if something gets through
Customer security questionnaires and cyber insurance
Larger customers and insurers now send security questionnaires before they sign or renew. We fill in the technical answers, put the controls in place, and keep the evidence on file, so the next questionnaire takes hours instead of weeks. If you hold or support defense contracts, see our CMMC compliance services.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Bytagig support manufacturers outside Portland?
Yes. We serve manufacturers across the Portland metro, Clark County, and the Willamette Valley. Manufacturers in the Boise area are served by IDACOMP – A Bytagig Company.
Can Bytagig work with our ERP vendor?
Yes. Your ERP vendor supports the application. We support the servers, network, security, and user access underneath it, and we coordinate directly with the vendor when a ticket needs both of us.
Do we have to replace our equipment to work with Bytagig?
No. We start with an assessment of what you have, fix the biggest risks first, and plan replacements on a schedule that fits your budget and production calendar.
What does managed IT cost for a manufacturer?
Most fully managed plans run $100 to $250 per user per month, depending on the number of users, sites, and the security and compliance work required. We give you a fixed monthly price after a short assessment.
Does Bytagig help with CMMC?
Yes. If you handle Controlled Unclassified Information for a defense contract, we help you scope CMMC, close gaps against NIST 800-171, and prepare the documentation an assessor expects.

Recommendations from past customers
Melanie W.
“Working with Bytagig LLC has been a great experience. They are responsive when we need assistance and are always keeping our security systems up to the most current standards. I can count on them to provide trustworthy recommendations for the technology needs we have.”
Kenneth M.
“I have been extremely pleased with the service we have received from Bytagig. They are very responsive, pleasant to work with and have solved every issue we have thrown their way.”
Jonathan B.
“Bytagig’s unwavering support has been invaluable to JBT. Their prompt response times and proactive approach have saved us from potential downtime and operational disruptions. It’s a relief to work with a company that understands the urgency of IT issues in today’s fast-paced business environment.”
Donna Z.
“Bytagig is our “go-to” for all of our business IT needs. The team is knowledgeable, professional and gets our jobs done quickly and at a reasonable price. We highly recommend Bytagig!”
Tawnya L.
“We had a different company prior to joining Bytagig’s family. Having worked with John while at a previous company, I knew of his professionalism and responsiveness already. Working with the entire Bytagig team to transition from our previous IT company was pretty seamless. The team tried to determine what would be the “choke points” in the transition and were able to anticipate the solutions in advance.
Any issues that do arise, the support team echos John’s professionalism and responsive mindedness.”
Matt L.
“I worked for a public agency for which John and the Bytagig team provided IT services. Before our agency hired Bytagig, we had a different third-party IT service provider. When we hired Bytagig, it was such an eye-opening difference. We should have made the change much sooner! John and his team are incredibly responsive to day-to-day typical “help desk” type issues, and they were always working behind the scenes to make sure our critical data and files were secure, while also keeping it available to us as many of us moved to partial or fully remote work in 2020-21. They migrated our file storage servers to the cloud and introduced other utilities and hardware that made it possible to seamlessly transition between WFH and in-office work environments.
Ian
“Bytagig is the third IT company we have used and are definitely the best. John and team are a great fit for us as a smaller company. The service and value are excellent.”
Grant
“John is one of the nicest people I have met. He took the time to sit down with me to address what was needed for my small business. His MSP service is a lifesaver for my business as it saves me time and takes away the worry of internet security. Highly recommend his services to anyone needing IT help in the Portland area!”
