Cybersecurity Services
Managed cybersecurity combines threat detection and response, security audits, SIEM, identity and access management, endpoint protection, and SOC oversight for email, data, and employee systems.
Secured network solutions and IT management that put security and support under one roof. Our family-run team has protected Chicagoland businesses since 1994 with local technicians.
Growing businesses get security and IT management working as one department. We cover cybersecurity, monitoring, backups, compliance, and daily IT support.
Managed cybersecurity combines threat detection and response, security audits, SIEM, identity and access management, endpoint protection, and SOC oversight for email, data, and employee systems.
Outsourced IT management covers network infrastructure, system monitoring, performance optimization, user training, cloud management, cybersecurity, compliance assistance, and responsive support.
Proactive monitoring identifies infrastructure problems and threats while experienced technicians provide 24/7 human support to diagnose issues and reduce business disruption.
Automated backups protect servers, workstations, and cloud data with offsite replication, ransomware-resistant versioning, test restores, and documented recovery objectives.
Risk assessments, policy development, gap analysis, monitoring, documentation, training, and auditor coordination support HIPAA, ISO, SOC, and other industry-specific requirements.
Microsoft 365 support includes secure deployment, email configuration, user and group administration, SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams, licensing, training, backups, and audit support.
A part-time IT person can't keep up with patches, backups, and new threats at once. One accountable partner closes gaps with monitoring, backups, compliance help, cloud systems, and 24/7 support.
See how businesses replaced scattered vendors with one secure plan. Their stories show systems that stay protected, connected, and operational.

Founder
Leon Engelking is the Founder of LME Services, having launched the company in 1994 after a career at IBM during the early rise of Microsoft and personal computing. Recognizing an underserved population of business owners who needed dependable, practical IT support as internet adoption emerged, Leon built LME from the ground up to meet that need. Over more than three decades, he guided the company through major technology shifts, including ransomware growth, cloud computing adoption, and the transition to remote work. His vision established LME's family-run culture and its commitment to long-term client relationships throughout Chicagoland. Leon's legacy continues to shape the company's values of security-first operations and dedicated, personalized service for small and mid-size businesses across the region.
