Challenge:
The client had a fragmented security posture — no formal framework, inconsistent patching, and no centralized visibility into systems and user activity.
Solution:
We introduced a cybersecurity strategy based on the Center for Internet Security (CIS) Controls v8.0, starting with the top priorities for SMBs:
Asset and software inventory
Secure configuration of hardware and OS
Centralized logging and alerting
MFA and password policy enforcement
Endpoint protection deployment
Vulnerability management process
User training and phishing simulation
Results:
65% reduction in misconfigurations and risky access
Auditable security baseline aligned with industry standards
Clear roadmap for maturing cybersecurity posture
Improved compliance readiness for vendor and grant audits
A structured, measurable, and scalable security program built around real-world controls.
