Understand the requirement, close the gap, and walk in with the evidence.
Cybersecurity compliance consulting helps you understand requirements, close control gaps, and prepare evidence for independent review. Federal & Defense covers CMMC, FedRAMP, GovRAMP, and the NIST requirements behind your government contracts. Commercial & Industry covers SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and ISO 27001. AI Frameworks covers AI risk assessment, governance, ISO 42001 readiness, and incident playbooks. Start with the contract, customer request, or assessment that created the need. We define the scope, assess the controls, and organize the evidence with your owners. Readiness support stays separate from independent assessment, certification, and authorization decisions.
We begin with the contract clause, BAA, acquirer letter, tender, RMF categorization memo, or customer questionnaire that created the requirement. From it we fix the framework and the edition in force, the system boundary, and who will judge the result, and record all of it in a scoping memo before any control is reviewed.
The principal who scoped the work performs it; there is no hand-off. We walk each requirement or criterion with its owner and inspect the real configuration behind it: how access is controlled, how systems are set up, and how the evidence is produced. Each gap is scored the way the program scores it, with a fix written for that owner.
You keep the SSP or system description, POA&M, policy set, control matrix, and an evidence index keyed to the framework’s own numbering, plus a readiness memo stating what is done and what is open. We run a mock assessment or internal audit, retest closed items with dated evidence, and stay on the readiness side.
Each service below has its own scope, outcomes, and a direct path to the detail.
Selling to the government means meeting a named standard and then proving it to an outside authority. We do the work before that day arrives. For each program we fix your boundary, whether that is a small enclave, your whole enterprise, or a cloud service, then run a gap assessment against the standard in force. We write the system security plan and remediation plan, build an evidence package an assessor can follow, close what is open, and rehearse the assessment so your people can speak to their own controls. The five focused services share one method and one principal: understand the requirement, find the gaps, build the controls, organize the evidence, and practice the review. Pick the one whose assessor you will face. Every engagement runs Scope, Assess, Report, and Validate, and because a CMMC Certified Assessor who prepares you cannot also judge you, we stay on the readiness side.

From $7,500A customer asks for a SOC 2 report, your patients are covered by HIPAA, your acquirer wants current PCI DSS validation, and an overseas procurement team wants an ISO/IEC 27001 certificate. Each framework has its own rules and its own independent party at the end: a service auditor, a federal regulator, your payment assessor or your own self-assessment, the body that issues the certificate. We do the work before that step. We scope the system or environment, find the gaps against the standard your customers actually name, build and document the controls with named owners, write the policies, and organize the evidence so it is ready to hand over. Where two frameworks ask for the same control, we map it once and prove it everywhere. Every engagement runs Scope, Assess, Report, Validate, and we never sit on the assessor side for a client we prepared.

From $18,000Customers now ask how you govern AI before they will buy, insurers ask at renewal, and new laws in several states and the EU are setting real deadlines. This core builds the program that answers all of them. The risk and gap assessment measures what you run today against the NIST AI RMF and its Generative AI Profile and hands you a prioritized roadmap. Policy and governance work turns that roadmap into decision rights, an acceptable use standard, an intake process, and an inventory of approved tools. The vendor review covers the AI you buy. ISO/IEC 42001 readiness builds a management system an independent body can certify. The incident playbooks and tabletop extend your response plan to AI-specific failures. Every engagement runs the same rhythm: understand the requirement, find the gaps, build the controls, organize the evidence, and rehearse the assessment. None of it is legal advice, and none of it is a certificate.
