Cybersecurity Consulting That Fits Your Business — Free

Cyber threats don't wait. Neither should you. The Tech Ref matches your business with the right cybersecurity solution — risk management, compliance, threat protection — at zero cost to you.

Cybersecurity Solutions for Every Risk Profile

From small law firms to multi-location healthcare practices, we match your business with security solutions proportionate to your actual risk — not just the most expensive option.

🔍

Risk Assessment & Gap Analysis

Understand your current security posture before investing in solutions. A proper risk assessment identifies vulnerabilities and prioritizes remediation so your budget goes where it matters.

📋

Compliance Services

HIPAA, PCI-DSS, SOC 2, CMMC, NIST — we match you with providers that specialize in your specific compliance requirements, from initial assessment through certification support.

🌐

SASE & Network Security

Secure Access Service Edge combines SD-WAN and cloud-based security into a single platform. Ideal for distributed workforces and multi-location businesses that need consistent protection everywhere.

🛡️

Endpoint & Threat Protection

Next-generation antivirus, EDR (Endpoint Detection & Response), email security, and web filtering. We evaluate providers based on detection rates, management overhead, and total cost.

👁️

SOC / MDR Services

24/7 security monitoring with expert-led incident response. Managed Detection & Response (MDR) services give you enterprise-grade security operations without a full in-house team.

🔐

Identity & Access Management

Multi-factor authentication, single sign-on, privileged access management. Controlling who can access what — and when — is foundational to any security program.

The Threat Landscape Has Changed

Ransomware, phishing, and supply chain attacks now target businesses of every size — not just enterprises. Small and mid-sized companies are often easier targets precisely because their defenses are weaker.

At the same time, cyber insurance carriers are raising their standards. Many policies now require documented security controls, multi-factor authentication, and active monitoring as conditions of coverage.

We help businesses cut through the noise: figure out what protection they actually need, find the right providers, and get it deployed — without the complexity or the inflated consulting fees.

  • Vendor-neutral security recommendations
  • Compliance-aware provider matching
  • Pricing comparisons across top providers
  • Coordinated deployment support
  • Ongoing point of contact — not a one-time sale
  • Zero cost to your business — always

Cybersecurity Questions, Answered

Common questions from businesses evaluating their security options.

Assessments & Compliance
A cybersecurity risk assessment covers your network infrastructure, endpoints, access controls, data handling practices, and compliance posture. The result is a gap analysis and prioritized remediation roadmap. We help you find the right provider to conduct and act on that assessment.
Many industries have specific requirements: HIPAA for healthcare, PCI-DSS for payment processing, SOC 2 for SaaS companies, and CMMC for government contractors. Even without a specific mandate, cyber insurance increasingly requires documented security controls. We help match you with compliance-focused providers.
Solutions
SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) combines network security and wide-area networking into a single cloud-delivered service. It's especially valuable for businesses with remote workers or multiple locations. Whether you need SASE depends on your network architecture — we help you evaluate it as part of a broader security review.
The right cybersecurity partner provides incident response planning — and often 24/7 monitoring with rapid response capabilities through SOC or MDR services. We help you find providers that include incident response as part of their managed security offering, so you're never starting from scratch when something goes wrong.
