Laws like MODPA and NIST standards change constantly. We don't just send news; we send the actual updated policy pages. Just swap them into your handbook to stay legally bulletproof.
Most "tech news" is noise. We filter it down to Zero-Fluff Directives. If a critical exploit hits Windows or Chrome, we tell you exactly what to tell your staff to stop a breach before it starts.
Insurance carriers now demand proof of "Ongoing Training." We provide monthly security "snackable" content for your team. Forward it to your staff to satisfy the policy and keep your claim valid.
You use Toast, Microsoft, or COX. If they are compromised, you are at risk. We monitor your software stack and provide Client Notification Templates if your vendors leak your data.
Governance is a habit, not a project. We send "Action Item" reminders for the boring but essential tasks: Backup Testing, User Access Reviews, and Asset Inventories.
Hear about a new TTP (Tactic) or local Maryland breach? We provide the "Executive Summary"—what it means for your liability and how to adjust your posture without a consultant.
"Because security is a marathon, not a sprint."
