Overview
Ostra Cybersecurity is passionate about protecting small businesses and mid-sized companies. Ostra was founded by cybersecurity trailblazer Michael Kennedy after a transformative conversation around the campfire. As he heard his friend share about a recent ransomware attack on his business, Michael knew he must do something to prevent others from dealing with this same type of uncertainty and chaos.
