Cybersecurity Consulting.

Strategic security advice rooted in experience—not buzzwords.

Why Cybersecurity Consulting?

Security threats evolve fast. Similarly, regulations, tools, and internal risks also play a role. Whether you're building a program from scratch, reassessing your current setup, or addressing specific concerns, expert guidance can save time, reduce risk, and increase confidence.

This isn’t about fear, uncertainty, or doubt—it's about helping you make smart, informed decisions.

What I Offer

Tailored Security Assessments

I begin by understanding your business, environment, and goals. Together, we look at what’s working, what isn’t, and what’s missing.

Practical Remediation Plans

No 300-page PDFs. I deliver actionable recommendations and phased roadmaps that your team can actually implement—without disrupting your world.

Risk and Compliance Strategy

Need help navigating standards like ISO 27001, NIST, SOC 2, or GDPR? I can help you prepare for audits, build internal controls, and align your program with relevant frameworks.

Vendor and Tool Evaluation

Too many tools? Are you unsure if you’re getting a return on investment (ROI)? I help evaluate what you have and what you might need—based on actual use cases, not vendor hype.

Ad-Hoc Support

Do you just need a sounding board or a second opinion? I’m available for one-time reviews, team coaching, or helping you triage the issue of the week.

Who I Work With

  • Tech Startups needing to build their first security posture
  • Mid-sized businesses seeking maturity without adding full-time headcount
  • CISOs and security teams who want an outside perspective
  • Executives and founders needing clarity and direction

How It Works

  1. Intro Call – We discuss your goals and current situation
  2. Initial Assessment – I dive into your environment and priorities
  3. Engagement – Choose from short-term consults, project-based work, or ongoing advisory sessions
  4. You stay secure and informed – I stay out of your way, unless you want me in it

Ready to Talk?

You don’t need to commit to anything at this time. If you’re curious about how this could work for your organization, let’s schedule a call to determine if we’re a good fit.
