Yes. Northern Hills Technology supports government and security-conscious organizations across the Greater Spearfish Area, the broader Black Hills region, and nearby communities including Rapid City, Sturgis, Belle Fourche, and Gillette.

Yes, we can help government organizations evaluate and improve alignment with frameworks and standards such as NIST and CJIS where they apply. That may include reviewing technical controls, documentation, security practices, risk areas, and reporting needs. We avoid treating compliance as a one-time checklist and instead help build a more maintainable process around your actual environment.
Government organizations often need managed IT, cybersecurity, firewall and network security, endpoint detection and response, vulnerability scanning, backup and recovery, and compliance support. Northern Hills Technology also provides hardware procurement, lifecycle management, cloud services, Microsoft 365 support, and business continuity planning. The exact mix depends on your systems, risk profile, internal capacity, and operational priorities.
Northern Hills Technology uses a structured support process with severity-based service level objectives during normal Help Desk hours. Those objectives set expectations for how quickly support begins after an issue is reported, with higher-severity issues prioritized first. Updates are documented by email or through the ticketing system so your primary contact has a clear record of progress.
Yes. Northern Hills Technology offers both fully managed and co-managed IT support, so we can either handle the environment directly or support your internal team. Co-managed support can help with cybersecurity, monitoring, compliance alignment, escalation, project work, backup, and strategic planning. This is useful when internal staff need additional capacity or specialized expertise without adding a full internal department.
The process typically begins with a discovery conversation to understand your organization, current technology concerns, security priorities, and compliance obligations. Northern Hills Technology can then provide a no-obligation assessment of your infrastructure, cybersecurity posture, data protection, and compliance alignment. From there, you receive a tailored recommendation focused on your risks, budget, and operational needs.
