Three ways to work together

Pick the engagement based on the pressure in front of the business.

These engagements turn a long capability list into clearer next steps. Scope is still tailored, but the starting point should be easy to understand.

Start here when the picture is unclear

Security Program Baseline

For organizations that need to understand where they stand, what gaps matter, and what to fix first.

Best fit

Small businesses with scattered security practices, unclear documentation, vendor review pressure, cyber insurance questions, or no current security roadmap.

Includes

  • Security posture review
  • Account and access review
  • Risk assessment
  • Policy and procedure review
  • Approved systems and storage review
  • Executive summary
  • Prioritized remediation roadmap

Typical outcome

A clear, practical picture of current security gaps and the next steps leadership should take.

For defense contractors, manufacturers, suppliers, and DoD-adjacent businesses preparing for CMMC, DFARS, NIST 800-171, SPRS, SSPs, POA&Ms, and assessment readiness.

Best fit

Small manufacturers, machine shops, industrial suppliers, and DoD-adjacent businesses that handle or may handle FCI or CUI.

Includes

  • CMMC and NIST 800-171 scoping discussion
  • SSP review or development support
  • POA&M support
  • Basic assessment preparation support

Fractional vCISO Advisory

For companies that need ongoing cybersecurity leadership but are not ready to hire a full-time security executive.

Includes

  • Monthly or recurring advisory meetings
  • Security roadmap ownership
  • Risk and compliance guidance

  • Policy and procedure development
  • Incident response planning

Supporting services

Deeper support behind the core engagements.

These services can support one of the engagements above or be scoped separately when the need is narrower. The goal is practical progress, not inflated scope.

Engagement style

Clear scope, useful outputs, and decisions your team can act on.

Work can be structured as a targeted review, a readiness push, or recurring vCISO-style support depending on the level of pressure and internal capacity.

Roadmaps

Prioritized next steps that connect security gaps to risk, effort, ownership, and evidence needs.

Documentation

Policies, procedures, control narratives, and records that support readiness conversations.

Advisory sessions

Recurring or focused guidance for leadership and technical teams as decisions come up.

Review findings

Plain-language findings that explain what matters, why it matters, and what to do next.

Not sure where to start?

Bring the requirement, gap, or decision that is slowing the program down.

Use a short consultation to clarify whether you need a readiness review, a roadmap, documentation support, architecture advice, or recurring security leadership.
