Cybersecurity isn’t just a technology problem — it’s a business problem. A single breach can cost a small business its data, its reputation, and its ability to continue forward. We help you prevent that from happening, and make sure you’re ready to respond if it does.
Most small businesses have some security in place — an antivirus here, a firewall there — but security that isn’t designed as a system leaves gaps that attackers find quickly. We don’t bolt security on at the end. It’s built into everything we do, starting from the first conversation.
We start by understanding your business: what data you handle, who has access to it, what tools you’re running, and where your biggest risks are likely to be. No jargon, no scare tactics, just security.
We conduct a comprehensive review of your network, endpoints, access controls, and configurations to identify vulnerabilities and establish a clear picture of your current security.
Not every vulnerability needs to be fixed today. We rank what we find by likelihood of exploitation and potential business impact. That way you know where to focus first and what can be addressed over time.
We don’t just hand you a report and walk away. We work through the fixes with you, configuring tools and upgrading systems. And we stay involved until the work is done.
The threat landscape changes constantly. We check in regularly, monitor your environment for new risks, and update your security as your business grows
Both of our principals come from cybersecurity backgrounds — not just IT backgrounds that happened to include some security work. That means we approach every engagement the way a security professional would: looking for what could go wrong before it does.
We work with businesses that handle sensitive data: healthcare practices dealing with HIPAA requirements, financial services firms managing client records, legal offices protecting privileged communications, and professional services companies that are increasingly targeted because attackers know they’re less defended than the enterprise clients they serve.
We don’t sell you tools you don’t need. When we recommend a product — an endpoint detection platform, a multi-factor authentication solution, a SIEM — it’s because it fits your environment and your risk profile, not because we have a referral arrangement with the vendor.
And we explain everything in plain language. You’ll understand what we found, why it matters, and what fixing it actually does for your business.
Antivirus is one layer of a much larger security picture. It doesn’t address your network configuration, access controls, phishing exposure, patch management, or how you’d respond to a breach. An assessment looks at all of it and tells you where the real gaps are.
It depends on the scope of your environment and what you need. We offer one-time assessments, project-based engagements, and ongoing advisory retainers. We price everything transparently before work begins. Reach out and we’ll give you a straight answer based on your situation.
IT support keeps your systems running. Cybersecurity keeps them protected. They’re related, but they’re not the same. A managed IT provider patches software and fixes tickets. A cybersecurity partner actively monitors your environment for threats, tests your defenses, and makes sure your security posture holds up as your business changes.
We regularly support healthcare practices, legal and professional services firms, financial services companies, nonprofits, and government contractors. Each comes with its own compliance requirements and risk profile, and we’ve worked through those before.
A vulnerability assessment is a structured review of your systems, network, and configurations to identify security weaknesses before an attacker does. Depending on your environment size, an initial assessment typically takes one to two weeks, with a findings report and remediation plan delivered within two to four weeks after that.
Yes. We’ve helped businesses implement the technical controls required by HIPAA, CMMC, SOC 2, and PCI-DSS. We can assess where you stand against a specific framework, build the policies and configurations you need, and prepare your documentation for audit.
We help you plan for that before it happens. As part of our engagements, we build or review your incident response plan so you’re not making decisions under pressure. If an incident occurs, we’re available to help you contain it, assess the damage, and recover your systems.
Yes, and we do it regularly. We’re not here to replace whoever is already in place. We fill in the security-specific gaps — the things that aren’t always covered in a standard managed services agreement — and work alongside your existing resources.
We’re a small, focused team. A Marine Corps veteran with nearly a decade in enterprise IT, and a cybersecurity specialist with certifications across CompTIA, GIAC, and ISC2. BravoSec IT was built to give smaller businesses access to the kind of security expertise that usually only larger organizations can afford.
We don’t work for vendors. We don’t upsell. We show up, tell you what we see, and help you fix it. Pricing is clear before work begins, and we don’t disappear once the engagement kicks off.
We regularly support healthcare practices, legal and professional services firms, financial services companies, nonprofits, and retailers. Each comes with its own compliance requirements, risk profile, and threat exposure — and we’ve worked through those before.
