MCR Business Tech Solutions delivers email security to organizations throughout the Pittsburgh area, combining 24/7 remote monitoring with hands-on on-site support when you need it. Whether you're standing up a new operation, upgrading aging infrastructure, or building out a more secure environment, we tailor every engagement to your specific situation rather than applying a one-size-fits-all template.
Our 20+ years of IT experience across Western Pennsylvania means we understand the realities of running a business in Pittsburgh: the connectivity options, the building infrastructure, the budget constraints, and the operational pressure that makes downtime so expensive. Every solution we recommend accounts for those realities.
What we deliver
Email Security for Pittsburgh businesses.
Every feature below is part of our standard email security engagement in Pittsburgh, available on its own or as part of a managed IT plan.
Advanced Threat Protection
Inbound mail filtered through multiple layers: reputation analysis, attachment sandboxing, URL rewriting, and AI-based phishing detection. Catches what the default filters miss.
Business Email Compromise Defense
Specific protection for impersonation attacks (the CEO-asking-for-gift-cards scam, the wire-transfer-redirect scam). Header analysis, display-name lookup, and lookalike-domain detection.
DMARC, SPF, DKIM Configuration
Outbound authentication so your legitimate email reaches inboxes (not spam folders) and impersonators cannot send mail as your domain. Quarterly DMARC reports reviewed for ongoing tuning.
URL Rewriting
Links inside emails are rewritten through the security platform. Even if a user clicks, the destination is checked at click-time (not just at delivery-time), catching delayed-payload attacks.
Attachment Sandboxing
Attachments are detonated in an isolated sandbox before delivery. Malicious behavior is detected and the email is blocked before it reaches the user.
User Training
Quarterly phishing simulation campaigns plus targeted training when users click. Makes the team part of the defense rather than just the attack surface.
Why MCR
Why Pittsburgh businesses choose MCR for email security.
Local response across Pittsburgh
When something needs hands on it in Pittsburgh, we don't have to dispatch from a distant city. Our 1-2 hour emergency response window covers the entire Pittsburgh area, with most day-to-day issues resolved remotely in minutes through our 24/7 monitoring tools.
20+ years of regional experience
Michael DiLauro founded MCR after more than two decades in IT across Western Pennsylvania. That experience covers the specific realities Pittsburgh businesses face: the connectivity options, the building infrastructure, and the operational pressures that make reliable technology non-negotiable.
Proactive, not reactive
Most email security engagements run smoother when problems are caught early. Our monitoring tools watch for performance issues, configuration drift, and security anomalies around the clock, so we can address concerns before they affect your team.

Pittsburgh businesses range from small offices to multi-location operations, and we right-size every engagement accordingly. No oversold enterprise gear for a 10-person team. No consumer-grade compromises in environments that can't tolerate an outage.
