Security Consulting
Practical security grounded in what changes behavior, not what looks good in a report. Assessments, identity hardening, and policies your team will actually follow.

Security problems tend to surface in one of a few predictable ways. If any of these sound familiar, it's worth a conversation.
Your IT is handled by an MSP or a generalist. Conditional Access, admin account hygiene, MFA enforcement, nobody's looked at these deliberately. That's normal. It's also fixable.
A phishing hit, a compromised account, a ransomware near-miss. Something happened and now it's time to close the gaps, before you have to explain it to clients or regulators.
Cyber insurance renewal requirements tightened, a client sent a security questionnaire, or a vendor is asking about your posture. You need documentation and actual controls, not just a policy PDF.
The defaults aren't secure. Conditional Access, MFA enforcement, admin role separation, and legacy authentication, these require deliberate configuration that most MSPs skip.
Scope
Scope is confirmed during a discovery call. Engagements can focus on a specific area or cover the full posture review.
Ongoing security posture oversight, quarterly reviews, tracking against baseline, and vendor accountability: that's part of the Fractional IT Director retainer.
The process
Most security assessments produce a long list. This one produces a short, prioritized list, and then we work through it.
Review of your environment: identity management, MFA posture, admin practices, email security configuration, endpoint state, and backup and recovery. I look at what's actually configured, not what the policy says.
Findings sorted by risk and effort, not alphabetically, not by severity score alone. You get the 5–10 things that actually matter right now, not a 200-item laundry list that nobody acts on.
I work through priority items with you or alongside your MSP. Writing the Conditional Access policies, configuring the settings, closing the gaps, not just documenting them.
Security policies, admin procedures, and a security baseline you can measure against going forward. The engagement closes with something your team can actually use, not just a PDF to file away.
Let's talk about your security posture
Tell me where you are and what prompted the question. I'll tell you honestly whether it's a problem worth addressing right now, and what addressing it actually looks like.
