Frequently Asked Questions

What size companies do you work with?
We specialize in small to mid-size businesses in regulated industries - typically 10 to 250 endpoints. If you have compliance requirements and need IT that's built around them (not bolted on), we're a good fit.
What's included in the free risk scan?
We'll review your current IT environment for compliance gaps, security vulnerabilities, and backup readiness. You get a written report with prioritized recommendations - no obligation, no sales pitch. Just a clear picture of where you stand.
Do you require long-term contracts?
We offer flexible terms. Most clients start with a 12-month agreement, but we're happy to discuss what works for your situation. Our goal is to earn your business every month - not lock you in.
Can you help if we've already failed an audit?
Absolutely. We've helped businesses remediate audit findings and build the technical controls needed to pass on the next round. The sooner we start, the faster you're back in compliance.
What tools and vendors do you use?
We use enterprise-grade tools for remote monitoring, endpoint detection and response, identity threat protection, and backup & disaster recovery. Every tool in our stack is selected for its compliance capabilities, not just its feature list.
