The 30-day security upgrade every SMB should have done last year. SSO, MFA, backups, incident plan — done right, documented, defensible.
SMBs that handle customer data, take payments, or have lost sleep after a phishing scare — and any business pursuing contracts that ask for a security questionnaire.
- MFA enforced on every business-critical account (email, banking, CRM, hosting).
- Backups that are tested, not just configured — with a restore drill on file.
- An incident response playbook your team has actually rehearsed once.
- A one-page security posture document you can hand to enterprise prospects answering questionnaires.
