Managed IT, security and connected observability across Michigan

From the automotive supply chain to the Warren defense industrial base and the Ann Arbor–to–Grand Rapids healthcare research corridor, we combine MSP operations with the Managed Intelligence Provider (MIP) model across supported infrastructure, identity, applications, networks, security, resilience, physical systems and AI for the regulated industries that define Michigan’s economy — one contract, one team, one operating record. The full planned toolset is included upfront in one package, without tool tiers or tool upsells. Activation depends on integration readiness and accepted coverage; service scope, exclusions and service levels are agreed for the engagement.

The threat surface most vendors undercount

Michigan’s automotive ecosystem — OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, tooling manufacturers, and logistics providers — has spent two decades integrating operational technology into networked environments. Computer-aided manufacturing systems, robotic production controls, SCADA platforms, and plant-floor IoT devices now share network infrastructure with corporate systems that connect to the internet, extending the threat surface from a supplier’s email system to a production line’s programmable logic controllers.

Sentry managed detection and response addresses this environment with OT-aware behavioral analytics that identify lateral movement between IT and OT layers before a ransomware payload reaches the production network. Citadel physical security closes the facility access vector. Michigan’s data breach notification law (MCL 445.72, Act 452 of 2006) requires notice without unreasonable delay — compressed detection timelines directly reduce the scope and cost of both the operational and the regulatory event.

Warren’s security requirements

The Detroit Arsenal in Warren — home of the US Army’s TACOM Lifecycle Management Command — represents a significant concentration of defense technology development. Organizations supporting those programs handle CUI under CMMC 2.0 requirements that are now contractually enforced in DoD acquisition vehicles.

Verity advisory scopes CUI boundaries and identifies control gaps; Core managed IT builds the compliant infrastructure; Sentry delivers the continuous monitoring required under Level 2 certification. The Dearborn and Warren manufacturing communities, where automotive and defense supply chains overlap, often find that a single CMMC-aligned security posture satisfies obligations on both sides of that intersection.

Healthcare and research security in Michigan

University of Michigan Health, Michigan Medicine, Corewell Health in Grand Rapids, and the broader academic medical center ecosystem across the state operate at the intersection of HIPAA technical-safeguard requirements and the physical security complexity of large, open healthcare campuses.

Sentry’s clinical-environment monitoring spans both the IT network and the connected medical device environment, where traditional endpoint agents cannot be deployed. Citadel’s physical security integration addresses server room, pharmacy access control, and patient area surveillance. Verity advisory produces the risk documentation and board-level reporting Michigan healthcare boards require under their governance obligations.
