Pick the one that fits. Each one tells you how it works, what it costs, and what you get — before you fill in anything.
Most businesses I talk to are not shopping for cybersecurity. They're tired of having four numbers for four problems, of nobody owning it when something breaks, and of an invoice arriving every time they ask a question. That's the actual job. I run your IT, I watch it, and most of the time I fix things before you know they broke.
Being direct about it: most of my clients could not tell you what an EDR is, and they don't need to. They can tell you their laptop works, new hires get set up on day one, the backups have actually been tested, and when something goes wrong one person picks up the phone.
The security is real and it's why nothing has gone badly wrong yet. But it's a property of the work, not the reason to hire me.
This is the part that's hard to sell because it's invisible when it's working. I'm monitoring your machines, so when something goes wrong I usually know before you do — and most of the time I've already dealt with it by the time you'd have noticed. You find out in the monthly summary, if you read it.
A backup that silently stopped running six weeks ago is the thing that ends businesses — and it is exactly the kind of problem nobody notices until the day they need it. That's what you're actually paying for: not the fixing, the knowing.
Priced per device, per month. No setup fee, no contract term, 30 days' notice to cancel. Move the slider and you'll see roughly what it costs — no form required to find out.
One person scopes it, builds it, secures it and hands it over — instead of a vendor for the network, a vendor for the servers and a third party nobody can reach when it breaks.
Fixed scope, fixed number, agreed before anything starts. No hourly meter and no discovery phase that bills while nothing ships. If the honest answer is that you need less than you asked for, I will tell you that instead.
Most "penetration tests" sold to businesses this size are an automated scan with a PDF wrapped around it. That is not what this is. Engagements follow my published methodology — the T-ALC, twelve phases sequenced by dependency rather than convention, available to read in full before you hire me.
Those are where I go deepest. The rest of the lifecycle is available and gets run when the scope calls for it:
Engagements run announced or unannounced. Announced lets us compare what I did against what your defenders actually saw, which is usually the more useful output. Unannounced tells you the harder truth. Either way you get the record of what worked, in the order it worked, and what to fix first.
Call. Every hour matters during an active compromise. If I can't pick up, leave a voicemail saying it's an incident and I'll call straight back.
