How We Think About Cybersecurity
-
1. Technology Comes First
We believe modern cybersecurity starts with the right technology. People and process matter, but the foundation is AI-powered, cloud-native security platforms that scale with your business. The tools you deploy must be powerful enough to stop advanced threats and resilient enough to adapt as attackers evolve.
-
2. CrowdStrike Is Our Core Platform
Since our start in 2021, we’ve chosen CrowdStrike’s AI-native EDR/XDR as the foundation of our MDR service. We believe CrowdStrike’s platform — with its real-time telemetry, threat intelligence, and automation — is the most effective way for midsize companies to detect, investigate, and stop breaches.

3. Automation First — Human Where It Matters
Cybersecurity operations must be efficient. That’s why we focus on automation and AI to handle routine detection and enrichment, and reserve human expertise for analysis, investigation, and response. This hybrid model gives you powerful coverage without the high cost of a full traditional human-based 24/7 SOC.

4. Practical Coverage Over Vanity Metrics
We don’t chase flashy certifications or broad technology portfolios. We specialize in best-in-class platforms and features that deliver real protection — not just marketing claims. “Good enough” is not good enough when your business is at stake.
-
5. Smart Operations for Real-World Constraints
Traditional 24/7 SOC models are often too expensive for midsize companies. We believe the most effective model today is:
1.) Best-in-class machine prevention, detection & automation running 24/7
2.) Human-led analysis and response during core business hours (8/5)
This approach balances cost and effectiveness for most midsize environments without sacrificing coverage where it matters.

6. Diverse Vendors Strengthen Resilience
Relying on one vendor for all security and productivity tools increases systemic risk. To build resilient defenses, we recommend choosing neutral best-in-class platforms for critical functions — such as endpoint detection, identity management, and secure networking — from different vendors that integrate well together. This supports stronger Zero Trust outcomes and reduces both systemic risks and vendor lock-in concerns.

7. We Think Long-Term
Security is not a one-time project — it’s a continually evolving discipline. We help clients build programs that grow with their business, reduce risk over time, and stay ahead of emerging threats through continuous tuning, monitoring, and improvement.
