No matter the critical infrastructure sector, our mission-oriented team is agile and ready to execute. When additional support is needed, we’ve built a strong network of world-class professionals to assist. 


Our experience is built on leading successful initiatives, such as helping energy organizations achieve NERC CIP compliance, guiding pipeline companies to meet TSA cybersecurity directives, and aligning government entities with NIST standards. These success stories form the foundation for supporting other sectors at the beginning of their cybersecurity journey.

Agile and Mission-Ready

Many of our team members began their careers as engineers or service members, and we understand the precision and attention to detail needed for complex systems such as nuclear, electric utility, and maritime.


We have partnered with Idaho National Laboratory (INL) to provide their proven methodology, Consequence-driven Cyber-informed Engineering (CCE). This methodology focuses on evaluating and mitigating high-consequence events instead of assessing their likelihood. Learn more about CCE at INL’s site using the link below.
