ECI —
Managed Cloud, Cybersecurity & AI for Alternative Investment
ECI is a managed services provider built specifically for the alternative-investment industry — Managed Cloud combining public and private scale, Managed Cybersecurity with embedded XDR rather than a bolted-on SIEM, Data and AI services with enterprise AI readiness, Governance / Risk / Compliance (GRC), Managed IT Services and Microsoft Copilot / Modern Workplace. Every solution is built to meet stringent global compliance requirements rather than retrofitted from a generic MSP offering. Fibi sources and negotiates ECI on your behalf, at no cost to your business.
Portfolio
Cloud + Cybersecurity + AI + GRC + Managed IT + Copilot
Six tightly integrated practices delivered under one alternative-investment-focused MSP rather than across separately operated cloud, MSSP, AI consultancy and Microsoft-licensing shops.
Managed Cloud: Public & Private with Scalability
Managed Cloud combining the scale of public cloud with the flexibility of private cloud — fitting alternative-investment operating models whose data residency, latency and cost-control posture cannot rely on a single hyperscaler default, and whose internal team needs cloud operated under industry-specific compliance from day one.
Managed Cybersecurity with Embedded XDR
Managed Cybersecurity with XDR built into the service rather than bolted on as a separate SIEM purchase — fitting operating models whose risk and audit posture cannot tolerate the integration seams between MSSP, SIEM vendor and managed-EDR vendor, and whose security team needs detection and response treated as one platform.
Data & AI: Enterprise AI Readiness
Data and AI services including enterprise AI readiness, AI infrastructure such as cloud HPC clusters for AI / ML workloads and data-platform foundations — fitting operating models whose investment thesis and middle / back-office workflows depend on AI but whose internal team has not yet built the data, infra and compliance foundation required to run it safely.
Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC)
Governance, risk and compliance services tailored to the alternative-investment regulatory environment — fitting operating models whose audit posture must produce documented controls across cloud, security, identity, data and AI usage rather than ad-hoc evidence pulled together at audit time.
Managed IT Services
Day-to-day Managed IT Services — operations, support, lifecycle management and ongoing maintenance — fitting operating models whose internal IT capacity cannot absorb day-to-day workload while also running cloud, security and AI initiatives, and whose service experience must hold to financial-services standards.
Microsoft Copilot & Modern Workplace
Microsoft Copilot rollout, Modern Workplace and productivity services — fitting operating models that have standardized on Microsoft 365 and want Copilot deployed under proper data-governance, identity and DLP controls rather than as an ungoverned end-user feature switch.
Ideal For
Alternative-Investment Operating Models with Audit-Heavy Posture
Private Equity & Portfolio Operations
Private-equity firms and their portfolio operations — fitting ECI's partner programs scoped for multi-entity organizations and consistent IT, security and cloud governance across acquired entities.
Hedge Funds & Asset Managers
Hedge funds, asset managers and broader alternative-investment operating models whose risk, audit and investor-reporting posture cannot rely on a generic MSP — and whose internal IT capacity cannot stand up the cloud, security and AI controls themselves.
Multi-Entity Manufacturing & Tech
Multi-entity manufacturing and technology operating models with global compliance requirements — fitting ECI's Managed Cloud + Cybersecurity platform scoped for portfolios where each entity operates under its own jurisdiction.
Microsoft 365 + Copilot Adoption
Operating models that have standardized on Microsoft 365 and want Copilot deployed under proper governance — fitting ECI's Modern Workplace and Microsoft partner-product practice for compliant, identity-aware Copilot adoption.
Why ECI
Where ECI Stands Out as a Financial-Services MSP
Structural advantages that justify ECI over generic MSPs and bolted-together MSSP / SIEM / cloud combinations.
ECI is built specifically for private equity, hedge funds, asset management and broader alternative-investment operating models rather than retrofitted from a generic MSP offering — fitting firms whose compliance posture, audit cadence and investor expectations differ structurally from generic commercial IT.
Embedded approach — for example, building XDR into the managed-cybersecurity service rather than reselling a SIEM vendor — fitting operating models whose security and audit posture cannot tolerate the seams between separately operated MSSP, SIEM and managed-EDR vendors.
Every solution is built to meet stringent global compliance requirements out of the box — fitting operating models whose risk and audit posture cannot accept compliance as a bolt-on, and whose investor and regulator base spans multiple jurisdictions.
Cloud practice combines the scale of public cloud with the flexibility of private cloud — fitting operating models whose data residency, latency and cost-control posture cannot rely on a single hyperscaler default and whose investment workflow needs hybrid placement.
