I started The Cyber Defense Initiative in 2021 after I had several clients that were small business owners were declined for Insurance policies because their industries and Insurance carriers were requiring a higher level of Cyber Security. When these small business owners went to Cyber Security companies, they were told they were too small or charged the same amount that a larger corporation would be charged. Naturally I was not thrilled with this, and I decided I wanted to change the industry, I had an Initiative.
I initially created The Cyber Defense Initiative as a consulting resource so that small businesses had a place to turn to help them get insurance and to advise on what their true threat landscape looked like. After a few years, it became apparent that most Cyber Security companies would not be able/willing to offer a solution tailored to small businesses.
I then went down the rabbit hole of learning/training how to ethically hack, perform vulnerability scanning services, and penetration testing for my clients. I also found some excellent cyber security partners that I work with for the more complex solutions that are outside of my scope.
Now in 2024, we have a wide range of offerings that span from one time network scanning, all the way to daily scans. We offer top of the line Managed Threat Detection and Response services, as well as a more tailored option for smaller operations. We have partnerships with some of the industry leaders, as well as several government contractors and Managed Service Providers, and we bring all of this to our clients to ensure they feel protected, valued, and not taken advantage of.
We will ALWAYS remember our Initiative and our Mission to ensure that Small Businesses have a place to turn for Cyber Security where they receive tailored advice and solutions for their business.
