What makes Lavawall® Canadian
Canadian ownership, hosting, billing, payment, support, and law, in one platform.
Fully Canadian-owned
Lavawall® is built and owned by ThreeShield Information Security Corporation, a Canadian corporation based in Calgary, Alberta. Its terms are governed by the laws of Alberta and of Canada.
Hosted in Canada
Data is hosted in Canada by default: on AWS in Montréal today, moving to a Canadian-owned hosting provider in Vancouver in Q4 2026. Where a client's obligations call for it, data can be placed in the United States, Europe, or Australia instead.
Billed in Canadian dollars
Canadian-dollar pricing with GST, HST, PST, and QST handled, month-to-month, with no high-water-mark billing.
Canadian ways to pay
Pay in Canadian dollars by Interac, Canadian pre-authorized debit, or Canadian credit card.
Supported from Canada
Support and Tier 3 escalation come from ThreeShield staff in Canada, the CISSP- and CISA-credentialled team that builds the product.
Canadian law built in
Compliance mapping covers more than 20 Canadian laws and frameworks, including PIPEDA, Quebec Law 25, Alberta PIPA and the Health Information Act, BC PIPA, FIPPA, and the E-Health Act, Ontario PHIPA, CPCSC, CIRO, and FINTRAC, alongside SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST CSF, and CMMC. See Canadian GRC.

What Lavawall® covers compared with Auvik
Lavawall® covers the network monitoring work Auvik is used for, and more, on one agent and console:
- Network, LAN, WAN, and Ubiquiti UniFi monitoring, with LAN scans that find unmanaged devices and open services.
- Device health and performance monitoring, patching, and remote support on the same agent.
- Compliance evidence and Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace breach detection in the same console.
For a feature-by-feature comparison, see Lavawall® compared with Auvik.
Where Auvik may fit better
Auvik is headquartered in Canada, offers a Canadian hosting region, and publishes Canadian-dollar prices, so it is a reasonable Canadian choice for network monitoring on its own. Lavawall® is fully Canadian-owned, takes Interac, pre-authorized debit, and Canadian credit cards in Canadian dollars, and puts network monitoring inside a full RMM with patching, remote support, and compliance.
Switching, or running both
Install the Lavawall® agent at each site, run a LAN scan, and connect your UniFi controllers.
