Bringing security in-house without adding headcount
The company needed enterprise-grade security it could prove to auditors and customers.
Early on, the team relied on outsourced IT and security providers. But as the business grew, the MSP model became limiting.
They lacked flexibility. They lacked direct visibility. And they couldn’t rely on someone else’s word that they were secure.
The team decided to bring security operations in-house.
But they didn’t have the resources to hire additional security headcount just to run endpoint security.

In short: bring security in-house—without inheriting all the overhead.
In-house control with managed operational lift
The company already knew which endpoint tools it wanted. What it didn’t want was to spend half an IT hire’s time operating them.
Zip enabled the team to move off outsourcers and run security internally without adding staff.
Zip handled the operational heavy lifting—policy enforcement, hygiene, automation—while preserving direct access to underlying systems.
The team retained visibility and control. They could log in, verify controls, and investigate one-offs when needed.
The result: enterprise-grade device security that runs largely in the background.
