Independent Security Consulting · US

Network & cybersecurity, done right — on contract.

I help US businesses find and fix the gaps attackers look for — through hands-on audits, penetration testing, firewall hardening, monitoring, and incident response. Engage me for a project, a retainer, or as an embedded part of your team.

Audits & pen testing Firewall & network SOC & incident response
01 / What I do

Security services that map to real risk.

From a one-time assessment to ongoing managed defense — every engagement ends with something your team can act on, not a 90-page PDF nobody reads.

/ 01

Security consulting

Network, cyber, and IT security strategy for teams without a full-time security lead. Roadmaps, architecture reviews, and a straight answer when you need one.

/ 02

Network security audits

Full review of your network architecture, segmentation, access controls, and exposure. Findings prioritized by what an attacker would actually exploit first.

/ 03

Cybersecurity audits

Endpoint, identity, cloud, and data posture mapped against ISO 27001, NIST CSF, and CIS Controls — with a remediation plan scoped to your effort and budget.

/ 04

Firewall configuration

Design, deployment, and hardening of perimeter and internal firewalls. Rule-base cleanup, segmentation, and policy that's auditable instead of accidental.

/ 05

Penetration testing

Real-world testing of your external surface, internal network, and applications. Clear proof-of-concept, business impact, and exactly what to fix — ranked.

/ 06

SOC & monitoring

Stand up or tune a security operations capability — detection rules, alert triage, and the runbooks that turn noise into action. Ongoing or build-and-handover.

/ 07

Incident response

When something's wrong: containment, investigation, eviction, and a clear post-incident report. Retainer for fast access, or engaged when you need it.

02 / How we work together

Engagement models that fit how you operate.

Pick the structure that matches the work — short and sharp, ongoing, or embedded with your team.

Hourly · Project

Project contracts

Defined scope, fixed deliverables, clear timeline. Ideal for audits, a penetration test, a firewall rebuild, or a specific hardening effort.

Ongoing

Fractional / retainer

A set block of hours each month for advisory, monitoring oversight, and on-call response — the security partner you don't have headcount to hire full-time.

Fast

Short-term assessments

A focused, time-boxed review when you need a credible read quickly — for a board, an insurer, a customer security questionnaire, or due diligence.

Embedded

Staff augmentation

Long-term, embedded support that plugs into your team and tooling — extra senior security capacity without the cost and lead time of a permanent hire.

03 / How I work

Pragmatic security. No theatre.

Good security shouldn't require a six-figure retainer or a wall of dashboards nobody watches. I work the way I'd want a consultant to work with me — understand the business first, find what actually puts it at risk, and fix the things that matter in an order your team can execute.

Every engagement is hands-on and senior from day one. You get clear communication, findings mapped to business impact, and a plan you can act on Monday morning.
