Our Approach
Partnership, Not Point-and-Shoot
I work hand-in-hand with your IT or operations team to understand business goals and existing infrastructure. Then tailor a testing and remediation plan that fits your budget and risk tolerance.
Pragmatic, Risk-Based Testing
By combining open-source scanners (OpenVAS, Nmap) with commercial tooling and hands-on review, I deliver prioritized findings that map directly to real-world threats.
Clear, Actionable Reporting
Every assessment concludes with a concise Security Snapshot report, highlighting critical issues, practical recommendations, and a roadmap to stronger defenses.
