Cybersecurity for the organizations that can't afford to fail.

A school district, a college, a forty-person firm. Different worlds, same problem: you're holding data somebody wants, your team is already stretched, and there's no security department down the hall. We become that department.

Start with a conversation. Thirty minutes with our CISO, no cost and no commitment, and you'll know whether we're the right people for the problem.

Who we serve

Three audiences, same underlying problem.

Every organization we protect is valuable enough to be worth attacking and lean enough that a serious incident would hurt for years afterward. Those circumstances shaped the whole company, from how we scope work to how we price it.

Education

Where we started, and still where most of our work lives. Districts, community colleges, and universities carrying student records, research data, and payment systems on budgets that were tight long before any of this began.

Small & Medium Business

Law and accounting firms, local media, consultancies, nonprofits, healthcare-adjacent practices. Attackers moved down-market once large enterprises hardened up, and most smaller organizations haven't caught up to being worth the trouble.

Investors & Portfolio Companies

Venture and private equity firms carry security risk they never underwrote. We run diligence before the wire goes out and stand up real security across a portfolio afterward, through one relationship instead of twelve.

The TriVigil framework

People, policy, preparedness.

Most providers sell you a tool and call it a program. Security usually fails in the gap between what's written down and what people actually do, so we work the whole thing and stay accountable for it.

01 — PEOPLE

Leadership you can call

A full-time CISO runs well north of $250,000 before benefits, and the hiring market is brutal. Our virtual CISO and advisory CIO services give you that seniority on the days you need it, plus someone who already knows your environment when something breaks at 2am.

  • Virtual CISO
  • Advisory CIO
  • Board and cabinet reporting
  • Security awareness training
02 — POLICY

Governance that fits your size

Risk assessments, written policy, audit prep, and compliance mapped to the frameworks that genuinely apply to you. Plain English, right-sized, and documented so an auditor or an underwriter can follow it without a translator.

  • Risk assessments
  • Policy development
  • FERPA, HIPAA, SOC 2, FTC Safeguards
  • Cyber insurance readiness
03 — PREPAREDNESS

Ready before it happens

Monitoring that runs while you sleep, and testing that finds gaps before an attacker does. Most organizations end up writing their call list during the incident. That is the wrong week to be writing it.

  • 24/7 SOC and managed detection
  • Endpoint and identity detection
  • Penetration testing and red team
  • Tabletop exercises
  • Incident response retainer
Our services

Everything under one roof, on purpose.

You shouldn't need five vendors, five contracts, and five people to chase when something goes wrong. Some of this we do ourselves and some comes through a partner network we've spent years building, but you sign one agreement and call one number.

Virtual CISO & Advisory CIO

Board-level security leadership on retainer. Strategy, risk, vendor decisions, and the hard conversations with your cabinet.

Governance, Risk & Compliance

Policy, audit preparation, and compliance work mapped to FERPA, CIPA, HIPAA, SOC 2, FTC Safeguards, PCI-DSS, and CMMC.

Cyber Risk Assessment

A scoped review of your technology, policies, and people. You get a maturity picture and a prioritized roadmap, we get a real understanding of your environment.

Penetration Testing

External and internal testing that mirrors how attackers actually work, with findings written so leadership can act on them.

24/7 SOC Monitoring

Continuous watch over your environment, with analysts reviewing what the tooling surfaces so an alert reaches you because it matters.

Security Awareness Training

Phishing simulation and training built for your staff, now covering AI-generated voice and video deception.

Wired & Wireless Audit

New for SMB

The infrastructure review we've run for districts for years, now available to multi-site businesses and firms.

Cloud & Workspace Hardening

New for SMB

Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace tenant reviews. Most organizations are still running defaults that were never meant to be permanent.

Cyber Insurance Readiness

New

Carriers are tightening underwriting and denying claims. We get your controls and documentation to where a policy will actually pay.

Incident Response Retainer

New

A guaranteed response time, a named contact, and a plan written before the bad day rather than during it.

Tabletop Exercises

We walk your leadership through a realistic incident and find out where the plan falls apart while it's still safe to find out.

E-Rate & Funding Support

We help eligible schools and libraries navigate E-Rate, where discounts run from 20% to 90% depending on need and location.

And the rest of it. Twelve domains in total, including the specialist work most providers our size send you away for.

The assessment

Half a day to find out where you actually stand.

Our CISO works through your technology, your policies, and your people. At the end you get a roadmap ranked by what would hurt most, with realistic timelines and costs against each item. The document is yours to keep and to take to your board.

No sales deck. If you're already in decent shape we'll say so, and tell you what to keep an eye on. Scope and price are agreed before anything starts, and the consultation that gets you there costs nothing.

HOUR 1

Technology interview

Your current setup, what's coming next year, and what keeps you up at night.

HOUR 2

Maturity index assessment

Policies, procedures, and management practice scored against a defined framework.

HOUR 3

Procedure and people review

Where the gaps sit between what's written down and what people actually do, plus a look at what your insurer requires.

HOUR 4

Findings and Q&A

We present the roadmap, take your questions, and agree on next steps. You own the document either way.

The unexpected loss of our IT Director was more than just a vacancy; it felt like losing a friend and a vital member of our community. In those moments of vulnerability, we realized we needed more than just a service provider; we needed a trusted partner. That's when we turned to TriVigil. Their Quick Start Program proved to be a game-changer, delivering a tailored assessment and an actionable roadmap that effectively addressed our challenges.
