Cyber Security is a Specialty

Our staff has advanced cyber security certifications and training, along with years of experience. Stronghold Cyber Security has designed our own test and assessment procedures in-house, using NIST and DoD security guides among others.

While IT and Cybersecurity do work hand-in glove… like accounting and auditing, these are separate professional functions. An accountant does not audit their own books, just as IT production staff do not oversee their own cyber security. We specialize only in leading-edge cyber security consulting services, and offer our expertise to organizations of all sizes throughout the U.S. and beyond.

Stronghold Cyber Security was built from the ground up as a security company from day one.

4 Reasons to Choose Stronghold Cyber Security

Less Worry, Increased Productivity

Leave cybersecurity to us — with the knowledge that you have a customized complete security program that meets any compliance requirements, you can focus on your core business operations.

Born From Military Grade Cybersecurity

Stronghold Cyber Security was conceived and born out of decades’ worth of experience dealing with information security in some of the most secure military environments on Earth. We use these very unique insights to help our clients design their cybersecurity programs. Our founder and principal consultant previously worked for the White House, and holds a masters degree in cybersecurity from Penn State.

Customized, Complete, and Compliant Cybersecurity Solutions

When done correctly, Cybersecurity is a lot like a safety program — a continuous, ongoing process that is continuously improved…. there is no “Set it and forget it.” We are your cybersecurity partner for the long haul, from initial assessments and penetration testing, to remediation, to writing and maintaining your Security Plan and other critical compliance documentation.

Credentials Tailored to Cybersecurity

There are NO government issued business licenses to practice cybersecurity, like there are for lawyers, accountants, or nail salons (to name just a few). Legally speaking, Starbucks could offer cybersecurity services if they so desired. The burden lies on businesses to choose qualified cyber pros. Stronghold Cyber Security has adopted the DoD’s guidance for security training (DoDD 8140) and employs only the best of the best.

Even if your company is able to withstand a cyber attack, the damage has been done and your reputation could be ruined. Can your company afford NOT TO have adequate cyber security? Don’t leave yourself and your business open to litigation, fines, or the horror of becoming the next “hot story” in the news.
