Security
Cybersecurity & Compliance
Defenses that hold up to a real attacker — and the evidence trail that satisfies your customers' auditors.
The problem
Attackers stopped skipping small businesses years ago — you're targeted precisely because the defenses are thinner. Meanwhile your largest customer just sent a 200-question security questionnaire, your insurer wants to know about MFA before they'll renew, and nobody internally owns the answer to either.
How we help
We build a security program sized to your business rather than selling you a policy binder. Controls that actually run, mapped to whichever framework your customers and regulators care about, with evidence collected continuously instead of scrambled together the week before an audit. Security reviews stop being a fire drill and become a form you fill in.
What's included
- Risk assessment and gap analysis against NIST CSF 2.0 and CIS Controls
- Endpoint detection and response, managed and monitored
- Email security, phishing defense, and user awareness training
- Identity, access control, and multi-factor authentication rollout
- Vulnerability scanning and remediation tracking
- Security questionnaire and vendor-review support
- Readiness work for SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI, and CMMC programs
- Incident response planning and tabletop exercises
Regulated data, small team
How this looks in practice
For clients handling protected data with no security staff of their own, we own the control set end to end — assessment, rollout, monitoring, and the evidence package that goes back to their customers' auditors.
Questions we get asked
- Can you get us SOC 2 certified?
- No — and be careful with anyone who says they can. Certification comes from an independent auditor, not from your IT provider. What we do is the readiness work: build the controls, run them, and assemble the evidence so the audit is a formality rather than a scramble. We'll also help you pick an auditor.
- We're a 30-person company. Are we really a target?
- Yes, and disproportionately. Most attacks aren't targeted at you specifically — they're automated sweeps looking for unpatched systems and reused passwords, and smaller organizations tend to have more of both. Being small makes you easier, not uninteresting.
- Which framework should we build on?
- Usually NIST CSF 2.0, with CIS Controls as the implementation layer. Most other standards — SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI — map back to that same foundation, so you build once and map to whatever gets asked for rather than starting over per framework.
The rest of what we do
Managed IT
Your IT department, staffed and running — monitoring, helpdesk, patching, and the network underneath it.
Cloud & Infrastructure
Migrations that finish, and infrastructure that costs what you expected it to cost.
Business Continuity
Backups somebody has actually restored from, and a recovery plan that's been rehearsed.
IT Strategy
A technology plan tied to what the business is trying to do — and a budget that survives contact with reality.
Software & AI
Software for the part of your business no vendor sells a product for — and AI applied where it actually pays.
Let's talk about what you're actually running.
A short, direct conversation about your systems, what's fragile, and what it would take to fix. No pitch deck, no obligation, and we'll tell you if we're not the right fit.
