For new businesses and spin-outs
We help newly formed businesses, professional spin-outs, and early-stage ventures review IT proposals, initial tenant configurations, and payment workflows before multi-year contracts or inherited defaults set in.
Instead of auditing years of historical tickets, our independent, fixed-fee review compares vendor proposals, statements of work, architecture plans, and initial configuration exports without accessing or testing live systems. It is built for organizations taking on client data, payment flows, provider commitments, or customer and insurer due diligence. See the full scope and deliverables.
During scoping, we agree the systems, participating providers, proposals or records, fee, and schedule.
Compare vendor proposals, statements of work, and licensing before a multi-year commitment. Clarify who owns administrator accounts, after-hours alerts, backups, offboarding, and excluded security work.
Check initial identity settings, administrator separation, multi-factor enforcement, external sharing, and emergency access exports before daily work builds around default configurations.
Establish documented approvals, verification steps, and email protections around payment instructions before funds move. A focused Wire and Escrow Fraud Defense Review can be scoped separately.
Check which security statements your agreements, policies, and configuration exports actually support before you submit a customer security questionnaire, vendor due diligence response, or first insurance application.
Avoid enterprise software bundles and checklists that have no named owner or review cadence. Focus your budget and controls on the critical services your organization can assign and check consistently.
Your report combines executive findings, a security confidence scorecard, and a 30/60/90-day roadmap matched to your launch or transition schedule. We walk through its priorities, owners, and evidence requirements with leadership.
Need focused help on a single choice? We also scope standalone vendor selection and procurement support, security architecture reviews, and follow-through oversight. We do not assess work we planned or supported, operate your systems, or take commissions or referral fees. Our independence commitments.
Conclusions are limited to the agreed scope and records reviewed. This is not a compliance certification or a guarantee of security. Missing records and material disagreements are stated in the report. How review and corrections work.
We review operational security. Your counsel advises on legal obligations, entity formation, and agreements.
Use the free Security Self-Check to identify the first six questions to settle with a cofounder, IT lead, or prospective provider. If you only need a free starting guide rather than a fixed-fee review, read how to fit your security program to what you can operate.
For an inquiry, describe the business or spin-out, the decision or proposal in front of you, and your timing. Do not send client files, payment details, access credentials, or confidential records.
