What would actually happen if someone came after you?

That question has a real answer. Most of what gets sold as security never goes and gets it. Everything below is a different way of finding out, depending on what you need to know.

Ransomware Readiness Review

The question: will your business survive a ransomware attack?

We look at how an attacker would get in and get leverage, whether your backups would survive contact with someone deliberately trying to destroy them, and whether your response plan works when it’s under pressure rather than on paper.

We also look past the technical side. Which operations stop if the systems do, how long you could run without them, what your people would actually do on day two, and who has to make decisions you may not have thought about yet.

You end up with a clear answer on whether the business survives, where it doesn’t, and what to fix first.

Most first engagements start here. Available with or without live simulation, depending on how far you want to take it.

Penetration Testing

The question: can someone get in from the outside, or move freely once they’re inside?

External, internal, or both, scoped to your environment rather than to a standard template.

You end up with the paths that actually work against you, ordered by what they’d let someone do, not by a generic severity score.

Crown Jewels Assessment

The question: what would an attacker go after first, and is it protected well enough?

Every environment has a handful of things that matter far more than the rest. We identify what those are for your business, then work out how an attacker would get to them and what stands in the way.

You end up with a short list of what genuinely matters and an honest assessment of how well each one is defended.

This is the usual next step after a readiness review, once you know how you’d hold up generally and want to know about the things you can’t afford to lose.

Purple Team Exercise

The question: would anyone notice?

We run real attack techniques against your environment with your defenders in the room, watching what fires and what doesn’t, and tuning detection as we go. If your defense is run by an MSP, they’re in the room too.

You end up with detection that has been proven against real technique rather than assumed to work, and a defensive team that has seen the attacks up close.

Stay ready

Tabletop Exercise

The question: does your response plan hold up when real people have to use it?

We walk your leadership and technical staff through a scenario built for your business, and watch where decisions stall, authority is unclear, or the plan says something nobody can actually do.

You end up with a plan that has been tested and a team that has already made the hard calls once.

Incident Response Retainer

The question: who do you call, and how fast do they move?

Guaranteed availability and agreed response times, with us already familiar with your environment before anything happens.

You end up with a known number, a known team, and no procurement scramble during the worst week of your year.

Fractional Security Advisor

The question: who’s thinking about this between engagements?

Ongoing strategic counsel for organizations that need security judgment but don’t need or can’t justify a full-time security executive.

You end up with someone accountable for the direction of your security program, available when decisions come up rather than only at renewal.

How an engagement actually runs

We scope it with you first.

A thirty minute conversation about your environment before anything is priced, so what you buy matches what you need rather than what fits a package. Scope, timing, and anything that could disrupt your operations are agreed before we touch anything.

Fixed price, agreed timeline.

You know what it costs and when it ends before it starts.
We sit down and walk you through it.

When the work is done we get on a call or in a room with you and whoever else needs to be there, go through what we found, and answer questions while everyone is looking at the same thing. You don’t just get a PDF in your inbox and a bill.
Findings you can hand to someone else.

Technical detail for whoever has to fix it, and a plain version for whoever has to fund it or explain it.
We tell you where we didn’t look.

You’ll always know what was in scope and what wasn’t, so a clean result never gets mistaken for a complete one.

Who this is for

The person who ends up carrying this. Sometimes a CIO or IT director. Just as often the owner or CEO, because there’s nobody else to hand it to.

Usually 200 to 2,000 employees, and usually someone who has had a scare, inherited a system they don’t fully trust, or reached the point where not knowing has become the problem.

Healthcare, financial services, and infrastructure are natural fits, but the industry matters less than the question you’re asking.

Who it isn’t for. If you need to pass an audit and nothing more, or you’re collecting bids and sorting on price, we’re the wrong firm and we’ll say so early.

Work with an MSP or serve clients who need this? Partner with us.

Still not sure which one you need?

That’s the normal starting point. Tell us what’s bothering you and we’ll tell you what would actually answer it.
