What we bring to the table
Every engagement begins with a 1-on-1 session to understand your environment, priorities, and constraints. We then custom-scope a plan built around your specific needs — no templated deliverables, no recycled decks. Just targeted expertise from people who've operated at the highest levels of enterprise security.
Security Strategy & Roadmapping
Most companies know they need better security — they just don't know where to start, or how to prioritize with a limited budget. We build a phased, realistic cybersecurity roadmap aligned to your business goals, regulatory requirements, and actual threat landscape — not a generic checklist.
What's included
- Current-state security posture assessment
- Framework selection guidance (NIST CSF, CIS, ISO 27001)
- Risk-prioritized roadmap with quarterly milestones
- Budget planning and vendor-neutral tool recommendations
- Executive-ready presentation for leadership buy-in
Who it's for
Companies building their first security program, or those with an existing program that needs a strategic reset. Ideal for CISOs, CTOs, and founders who need a clear plan before committing budget.
Attack Surface & Risk Exposure
You can't protect what you can't see. We map your entire digital footprint — external-facing assets, internal infrastructure, cloud environments, shadow IT, and third-party integrations — then quantify your actual risk exposure in terms your leadership team can act on.
What's included
- External attack surface discovery and enumeration
- Cloud configuration review (AWS, Azure, GCP)
- Shadow IT and unknown asset identification
- Third-party and supply chain risk mapping
- Risk exposure scoring with remediation priorities
- Continuous monitoring recommendations
Who it's for
Growing companies that have expanded fast and lost visibility into their full digital footprint. Especially valuable before a funding round, acquisition, or compliance audit.
Offensive Security & Red Teaming
We think like attackers because we've built the tools attackers use. From scoped penetration tests targeting specific systems to full-scope red team engagements that test your entire organization — people, processes, and technology — we find the gaps before real adversaries do.
What's included
- Web application and API penetration testing
- Internal and external network penetration testing
- Social engineering and phishing simulation
- Full red team engagements with real-world TTPs
- SOC effectiveness and detection gap analysis
- Detailed findings report with proof-of-concept exploits
- Remediation guidance and re-testing
Who it's for
Organizations that need to validate their defenses under realistic conditions. Required for many compliance frameworks and invaluable before product launches, M&A, or board-level security reviews.
Security Architecture & Hardening
Buying security tools is easy. Deploying them correctly is where most companies fail. We provide hands-on architecture design and implementation guidance — from firewall rulesets to Zero Trust rollouts — so your investment actually protects you.
What's included
- Firewall architecture design and rule optimization
- EDR/XDR deployment and tuning
- Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) planning and rollout
- Web Application Firewall (WAF) configuration
- Network segmentation and micro-segmentation
- Anti-DDoS and IPS/IDS implementation
- VPN and remote access hardening
Who it's for
Companies that have purchased security tools but need expert help deploying and tuning them. Also ideal for organizations migrating to cloud or hybrid environments and need their architecture reviewed.
Identity & Access Risk Assessment
Identity is the new perimeter — and Active Directory is the most targeted infrastructure in every enterprise breach. We perform deep-dive assessments of your Azure AD (Entra ID) and on-prem AD environments to find the misconfigurations, excessive privileges, and lateral movement paths that attackers exploit.
What's included
- Azure AD / Entra ID configuration and security review
- On-premises Active Directory health and risk assessment
- Privilege escalation path analysis
- Service account audit and credential hygiene review
- Conditional Access and MFA policy evaluation
- Kerberos, NTLM, and legacy protocol risk analysis
- Identity governance and lifecycle recommendations
Who it's for
Any organization running Microsoft infrastructure — especially hybrid environments with both on-prem AD and Azure AD. Critical for companies that have grown through acquisition or have legacy identity configurations they've never audited.
Compliance & Audit Readiness
Compliance doesn't have to be painful. We've navigated the most complex regulatory landscapes at Fortune 500 scale. Now we help growing companies cut through the noise — identifying exactly what you need, what you don't, and how to get audit-ready without burning your entire budget.
What's included
- Framework mapping (NIST, SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI-DSS)
- Current-state maturity assessment and scoring
- Gap analysis with prioritized remediation plan
- Policy and procedure development guidance
- Evidence collection strategy and documentation review
- Auditor preparation and mock audit walkthroughs
Who it's for
Companies preparing for their first audit, switching frameworks, or responding to customer security questionnaires. Especially valuable for SaaS companies pursuing SOC 2 or startups facing enterprise buyer security requirements.
Enterprise Product Readiness
Building a product and trying to sell into large enterprises? We've spent 20+ years on the buyer side — evaluating, approving, and deploying security and IT products inside Fortune 500 companies. We know exactly what enterprise security teams look for, what triggers a rejection, and what gets you on the approved vendor list.
What's included
- Enterprise security requirements gap analysis for your product
- Guidance on SSO, SCIM, RBAC, and enterprise authentication
- Data residency, encryption, and compliance readiness review
- Security questionnaire preparation (SIG, CAIQ, custom)
- Penetration testing readiness and vulnerability management guidance
- SOC 2 / ISO 27001 certification roadmap for your product
- Enterprise procurement process insights and positioning
Who it's for
Startups and product companies targeting Fortune 500 or large enterprise customers. If you're losing deals because of security concerns, getting stuck on vendor security reviews, or don't know what "enterprise-ready" actually means — this is for you.
Our edge
We don't guess what enterprises want — we've been the people who decide. Our team has evaluated hundreds of products from the CISO's chair. We tell you exactly what to build, what to document, and how to position your product to pass enterprise security review on the first try.
SIEM Alert Optimization
Alert fatigue is the silent killer of SOC effectiveness. When your team is buried under thousands of low-fidelity alerts, real threats slip through. We review your entire SIEM rule set, eliminate the noise, tune detection logic, and restructure your alert pipeline so your analysts spend their time on threats that actually matter — not chasing false positives.
What's included
- Full audit of existing SIEM rules, correlation logic, and alert thresholds
- False positive analysis and noise reduction strategy
- Detection coverage mapping against MITRE ATT&CK framework
- Alert prioritization and severity recalibration
- Custom detection rule development for your threat landscape
- Dashboard and reporting optimization for SOC leadership
- Runbook alignment — ensuring alerts map to actionable response procedures
Who it's for
Security teams running Sentinel, Splunk, QRadar, Elastic, or any major SIEM platform who are overwhelmed by alert volume. Especially valuable for SOCs that have grown organically and accumulated years of unreviewed detection rules.
SOC Threat Hunting Program
A reactive SOC waits for alerts. A mature SOC hunts. We assess your current security operations — processes, playbooks, tooling, and team structure — and design a proactive threat hunting program that fits your environment. Based on decades of experience running and optimizing SOCs at Fortune 500 scale, we tell you exactly what to change and how to operationalize it.
What's included
- Current-state SOC maturity assessment and gap analysis
- Operating procedure review and improvement recommendations
- Threat hunting hypothesis framework tailored to your industry
- Hunt playbook development with repeatable methodologies
- Tool utilization review — are you getting full value from your stack?
- Threat intelligence integration strategy
- Metrics and KPI framework to measure hunting effectiveness
- Team skill gap analysis and training recommendations
Who it's for
Organizations with an established SOC that want to move from purely reactive monitoring to proactive threat hunting. Ideal for security leaders who know their team can do more but need a proven framework and expert guidance to get there.
