Consulting Services
Your backups are supposed to save you. Let's make sure they will.
I don’t sell software. I don’t represent any vendor. I come in, look at what you actually have, and tell you honestly whether you’d survive a ransomware attack tomorrow.
What I Offer
Four Ways I Can Help
Each engagement is independent, vendor-neutral, and structured to give you answers — not a sales pitch.
Cyber Recovery Assessment
A structured three-week review of your backup infrastructure, immutability posture, RTO/RPO reality, and offsite strategy.
Ransomware Recovery
You got hit. Now what? I help organizations determine what they have, what they can recover, and how to get back up fast. In partnership with Dr. Mike Saylor of Blackswan Cybersecurity.
Backup Strategy Review
Not in crisis mode but want to know where you stand? I'll review your existing backup architecture and give you a clear picture of your recovery posture.
Board & Executive Briefings
Independent briefings on ransomware risk, recovery posture, and cyber insurance implications at the executive level.
Featured Service
The Cyber Recovery Assessment
Most organizations assume their backups will save them. Most of them are wrong. My Cyber Recovery Assessment tells you exactly what you’d actually recover — and what you’d lose — if ransomware hit you today.
- ✓Can you actually recover? Full test of backup infrastructure and recoverability
- ✓Are your backups truly immutable, or just marketed that way?
- ✓Recovery time reality check — what your RTO/RPO actually is vs. what you think
- ✓Offsite and air-gap assessment — is your good copy actually safe?
- ✓Prioritized remediation roadmap — what to fix first, second, and third
- ✓Executive summary for board and cyber insurance reporting
