Fractional and Embedded CISO Services

Whether your organization is just beginning its cybersecurity journey or navigating a critical transition, we provide strategic, hands-on CISO leadership tailored to your exact needs.

We offer short-term or long-term CISO support—stepping in to launch, revitalize, or mature your cybersecurity program based on where you are today and where you need to go. This might mean building a pragmatic, right-sized program for a growing team, preparing for CMMC certification or an acquisition, or guiding your response during an incident or leadership change.

Our approach is:

  • Strategic — Focused on long-term resilience, not just quick fixes
  • One-on-one — A direct advisory relationship with your leadership
  • Custom — Tailored to your business model, risk tolerance, and regulatory profile
  • Operationally grounded — Translating vision into action, with clear roadmaps and measurable progress

From board-level risk framing to control design, vendor selection, policy development, and audit readiness—we act as a true extension of your leadership team.

Cybersecurity is a business function. You need a partner who understands both.

CMMC Program Readiness

More than a checklist. A path forward.

Whether you’re just starting your CMMC journey or preparing for a formal C3PAO assessment, this is where clarity begins. As a Certified CMMC Professional (CCP) with real-world experience conducting assessments and as a CISO building cybersecurity programs, I offer pre-assessment services that go beyond checklists and spreadsheets.

This is a collaborative, one-on-one engagement where we examine your current posture, evaluate your readiness against CMMC Level 2 requirements, and—most importantly—work together to create or refine a cybersecurity program that fits your business. Whether you’re:

  • Building a program from the ground up,
  • Recovering from a leadership change or audit failure,
  • Getting ready for a C3PAO assessment, or
  • Re-aligning your roadmap after a previous gap analysis…

…I provide hands-on, CISO-level guidance to make sure you’re not just compliant—you’re confident.

What You Get:

  • A comprehensive pre-assessment aligned to NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC Level 2
  • Strategic insight from a Certified CMMC Professional (CCP) with assessment experience
  • A tailored, actionable roadmap for achieving and maintaining compliance
  • One-on-one support to build, grow, or recalibrate your program based on your actual needs
  • Clear next steps to prepare for your C3PAO certification assessment

This isn’t a box-ticking exercise. It’s the beginning of a security program that works—for your business, your mission, and your future contracts.

AI that Delivers, is Secure, and that You Own

We deliver fully self-hosted AI systems that run on bespoke hardware you own, located inside your trusted facility or data center. These solutions are purpose-built for proprietary, sensitive, and regulated environments—fully suitable for handling CUI, ITAR, HIPAA, and other high-assurance workloads with zero cloud exposure or third-party risk.

Unlike most AI offerings, you maintain full control over your data, infrastructure, and system behavior. Our deployments are designed to meet enterprise-grade security standards while giving you the power to customize and extend your platform as your needs evolve.

We help you build and integrate:

  • Secure, on-premise LLM systems with no external dependencies
  • Traditional AI chatbots trained on your internal policies and procedures
  • Agentic AI capabilities to automate workflows and execute multi-step tasks
  • RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) pipelines for high-precision document search
  • Graph-based memory systems to build rich, contextual knowledge over time
  • Integration hooks for internal applications, developer tools, and APIs

Whether you need a private internal assistant, a knowledge engine for your engineering team, or an AI system embedded in your operational stack, we tailor every build to your exact use case. From prototype to production, we align with your compliance profile, risk tolerance, and development workflows.

AI doesn’t have to mean handing over your data.

With us, it’s yours—from silicon to software.
