Cyber Security Services- Securing Fortune 100 companies since 2014
Our cybersecurity consulting services are not about generating a thick report and walking away. The organizations that actually improve their security posture, and maintain it, work with consultants who understand their industry, their regulatory environment, their technology stack, and their business goals. That is the standard we hold ourselves to at Cyber Security Services.
Whether you need a comprehensive security strategy built from the ground up, a risk assessment that satisfies a regulatory requirement, a compliance program for SOC 2 or HIPAA or CMMC, or ongoing security leadership your internal team does not have the bandwidth or expertise to provide: our consulting practice delivers the strategic guidance and hands-on implementation support that translates expert recommendations into real security outcomes.
We work with organizations across every sector we serve (healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, government, education, and technology) bringing both the broad security expertise and the industry-specific regulatory knowledge that generic consulting firms cannot match.
worldwide security services spending, 2026
Gartner forecasts worldwide end-user spending on security services will reach $92.8 billion in 2026, up from $83.8 billion in 2025, within total information security spending of about $240 billion. Gartner cites rising threats and increasing regulatory pressure as drivers of sustained security spending. (Gartner, Information Security End-User Spending Forecast, 2025)
of cybersecurity teams are understaffed
58% of organizations say their cybersecurity team is understaffed, and 61% report open cybersecurity roles. With qualified staff hard to hire, many organizations use outside specialists to cover skills their internal teams do not have. (ISACA, State of Cybersecurity 2026, 2026)
median information security analyst wage
The median annual wage for U.S. information security analysts was $129,180 in May 2025, before benefits and overhead, and employment in the role is projected to grow 21% from 2025 to 2035. A full security program draws on several disciplines, and consulting provides that range of expertise on demand. (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, Occupational Outlook Handbook, 2026)
The term “cybersecurity consulting” covers a broad range of activities, from a single-day advisory session to a multi-year managed engagement. Understanding what you actually need is the starting point for every engagement we scope. In practice, organizations come to us for one or more of the following:
You cannot manage risk you have not measured. Our risk assessments follow NIST SP 800-30 methodology and produce the documented evidence that regulators, auditors, cyber insurers, and board-level stakeholders require. We assess threats, vulnerabilities, likelihood, and business impact, then map findings to your current controls to identify the gaps that represent your highest actual risk, not just your most common or most visible weaknesses.
Compliance frameworks (HIPAA, SOC 2, CMMC, GLBA, PCI DSS, ISO 27001, NIST CSF) are not check-the-box exercises. They are structured frameworks for building real security programs. We help organizations navigate the requirements of each applicable framework, develop compliant policies and procedures, implement required controls, and prepare for audits and assessments with the confidence that comes from having done the work, not just documented it.
Cybersecurity risk is now a board-level responsibility. Boards need clear, accurate, non-technical reporting on their organization’s security posture, key risks, and program performance, and security teams need a translator who can communicate risk in business terms. We develop board-ready security reporting, facilitate risk discussions at the executive level, and provide the governance structure that makes cybersecurity a business strategy conversation rather than a technical briefing.
Most clients start with a project-based engagement, a risk assessment or compliance gap analysis, and transition to a retainer or managed service model once they see the value of continuous security expertise. We do not push clients toward larger engagements than they need. The right model is the one that delivers the best security outcomes for your budget and maturity level.
Most organizations discover during a real incident that their incident response plan is either nonexistent, outdated, or untested. We develop documented incident response plans that define roles, responsibilities, escalation paths, communication protocols, evidence preservation procedures, and regulatory notification timelines, then test the plan through tabletop exercises that reveal gaps before they matter under pressure.
Our practice is led by Matt Santill, CISSP: a Certified Information Systems Security Professional with over a decade of experience building and managing security programs across regulated industries. CISSP certification represents the gold standard of security expertise, covering all eight domains of the (ISC)2 Common Body of Knowledge. When you engage our consulting practice, you are working with senior-level expertise, not a junior analyst following a checklist.
The biggest weakness of large consulting firms is their generic approach, applying the same framework template regardless of industry, size, or regulatory context. We do the opposite. Our consulting programs are built around your specific industry’s regulatory requirements, threat profile, and operational constraints. A healthcare organization needs different things than a manufacturer. A credit union has different obligations than a SaaS company. We know the difference and build accordingly.

Cybersecurity consulting encompasses project-based and advisory engagements with defined deliverables: a risk assessment, a compliance gap analysis, a security policy library, an incident response plan, a security strategy roadmap. Our virtual CISO service is a longer-term leadership engagement where we serve as your organization’s senior security executive, running your security program, presenting to the board, managing vendors, and making ongoing strategic decisions. Many clients begin with a consulting engagement and transition to a vCISO relationship as their program matures.
Scope determines timeline. A focused risk assessment or gap analysis typically takes 4–8 weeks from kickoff to final report delivery. Policy and procedure development adds 4–8 additional weeks depending on the number of policies required and the review cycles your organization needs. A comprehensive security program build (from assessment through roadmap development, policy creation, and control implementation) typically spans 6–12 months. We provide specific timeline estimates in our proposals based on your actual scope.
Small and mid-sized organizations are our core market. The Big Four consulting firms serve the Fortune 500. Our practice is built for the organizations that need the same quality of expertise but cannot afford enterprise consulting fees or full-time security staff. We right-size engagements for organizations ranging from 10 to 500+ employees, and our pricing reflects the reality that a 50-person company has different budget constraints than a 5,000-person enterprise.
Yes. Cyber insurers increasingly require evidence of specific controls: MFA, EDR, backup testing, security awareness training, and documented incident response procedures. We prepare organizations for renewal cycles and new policy applications by assessing and documenting their control posture. For customer security questionnaires (common in B2B SaaS and vendor due diligence contexts), we help develop the security documentation and responses that satisfy enterprise procurement teams and accelerate sales cycles.
Three things: senior expertise on every engagement (not junior staff executing senior plans), industry-specific knowledge rather than generic framework application, and a commitment to implementation not just recommendations. Large consulting firms staff junior analysts at senior rates. We staff your engagement with the people who designed the program: the same CISSP-certified professionals who scope your project are the ones doing the work. And we measure success by actual security improvement, not by deliverable count.
