Enterprise-Grade Cyber Security, Sized for Small Business Budgets
I help small and mid-size businesses find the security gaps that lead to ransomware and data breaches, then build a practical plan to close them. No jargon. No full-time hire required, and you won't get stuck paying for a bloated retainer.

CYBERSECURITY RISK ASSESSMENT AND MITIGATION
Audit Free to many non-profit organizations
MOST BREACHES DON'T START WITH HACKERS
Attackers look for the weak point you haven't found yet. Maybe it's an unpatched server or a misconfigured account. Often it's just an employee who hasn't been trained to spot phishing. I run a structured risk assessment across 15 security domains and prioritize what actually matters for your business. You get a plan you can act on immediately. It won't be a 40-page report that sits in a drawer.
ASSESS, PREPARE, MITIGATE, RESPOND
Attackers find vulnerabilities in networks, operating systems, databases, websites, and most often: people. I help you discover the unknown before they do, and build a mitigation plan around it. Have a Business Continuity/Disaster Recovery plan in place and test every aspect of it. I'll provide a risk assessment and prioritize mitigation steps.

BUSINESS CONTINUITY AND DISASTER RECOVERY
More than backups, BC/DR is a written and practiced procedure that all stakeholders can refer to. It spells out how to isolate a breach and how to respond, plus the recovery steps that keep downtime to a minimum. Ransom payments don't guarantee recovery, and they fund the next attack. A tested plan gets you back online without one.
ENCRYPTION
Use encrypted email to ensure unauthorized access is eliminated. Encrypt hard drives to protect data from theft and cyber attacks. Protect websites with strong encryption using SSL identity certificates.
Deploy Multi-factor authentication everywhere possible. Safely use remote access without creating a back-door for attackers.
CIA TRIAD
Confidentiality - Ensure data, particularly sensitive data, is protected from unauthorized access
Integrity - Safeguard data by protecting from unauthorized deletion or modification, and quick recovery from a breach
Availability - Ensure continuous access to data; achieved by designing an infrastructure with redundancy and resilience
