IT & Security for Construction Companies

Job sites don’t stop. Your IT shouldn’t either.

Construction firms operate in high-velocity environments: field supervisors, mobile devices, project systems, estimating, accounting, payroll, and constant job-site coordination. When systems go down, delays follow — along with missed deadlines, productivity loss, and contractual exposure.

RutterNet supports construction companies with IT operations, cybersecurity, and incident response built for job-site reality, keeping teams productive, connected, and protected wherever work happens.

Common Challenges We See in Construction Environments

Across construction organizations, we commonly see:

  • Laptops and tablets everywhere — job sites, trucks, trailers, and home offices
  • Shared or rotating devices with rapid onboarding and offboarding needs
  • Increased exposure to ransomware, phishing, and credential abuse
  • Project documentation and file systems that are mission-critical
  • A single incident that can freeze authentication, access, and productivity

What Rutter Delivers for Construction Companies

Rapid Incident Response & Recovery

When incidents occur, speed matters. Our response model is designed to contain, restore, and stabilize environments quickly — minimizing disruption to active jobsites.

  • Fast containment and credential control
  • Clear executive communication during incidents
  • Same-day recovery scenarios when controls are in place

Endpoint & Device Control with Microsoft Intune

Construction environments require control without slowing teams down. 

  • Device encryption, compliance, and patching standards
  • Remote wipe and isolation of compromised devices
  • Fast onboarding and offboarding for project-based staffing
  • Secure BYOD with app-level controls when required

Cloud & Remote Access That Works in the Field

Enable secure access without dragging job-site productivity down.

  • Azure-hosted workloads where appropriate
  • Azure Virtual Desktop options for secure remote access
  • Identity and access standardization using Microsoft Entra ID

Backup & Business Continuity Planning

Downtime and data loss can stop projects cold. Our approach will keep construction operations running and recover quickly after disruptions.

  • Recovery targets aligned to operational realities, not generic IT assumptions
  • Tested recovery processes, so restoration works when it is needed, not just on paper
  • Protection against ransomware and system failures that can lock teams out of critical systems
  • Clear recovery planning for jog-site, office, and cloud systems, including identity and access services

Proof Point: Real-World Incident Recovery

A 150+ employee construction firm experienced a cyberattack that disrupted authentication and system access across job sites and offices. Because strong endpoint controls, monitoring, and recovery processes were already in place, RutterNet contained the incident quickly, restored systems the same business day, and avoided ransom payment — allowing the company to resume operations without prolonged disruption.
