We take pride in our in-house expertise. At Sullivan Wright Technologies, we understand that security isn’t something you add on with an IT platform, product, or service—it’s a critical foundation. We also recognize that implementing a cybersecurity strategy can feel like a daunting challenge to tackle, particularly when your team is short on time.
That’s why we’ve handpicked industry best practices, software, and services, which we tailor to each unique risk landscape to secure systems swiftly and strategically. We help our clients address the full lifecycle of risk with a comprehensive suite of services, modeled after the NIST Cybersecurity Framework. We focus on:
Identifying Potential Vulnerabilities
We conduct a wide range of risk and compliance assessments, including those for HIPAA, GLBA, SOX, SEC, PCI, and FTC, among others. We also help companies meet the increasing demand for robust cybersecurity measures from third parties and insurers. After assessing a client’s potential security needs, we co-design and collaboratively implement strategies for risk reduction to keep their operations secure.
- Vulnerability scanning and management
- Content and Domain Name System (DNS) filtering
- Annual risk assessment
Protecting Systems
Server and workstation operating systems, cloud-based platforms (e.g., SaaS), routers and firewalls, and web servers are just a few examples of items that can leave organizations vulnerable if not configured securely. Along with protecting systems, we help clients empower their team members to serve as an additional line of defense against cyber threats. We’ve seen how important it is for employees to be able to distinguish between phishing emails and legitimate ones, identify ransomware in the wild, and create strong passwords. We train teams with these skills using current, real-world examples people encounter daily. Our partners regularly share the attacks they’ve stopped because of our training, and we love hearing every success story.
- Hardening systems and service configuration
- Password managers
- Configuration management
- Vulnerability remediation support
- Security awareness training
Detecting Threats
No one is immune to cyberattacks, regardless of the preventive safeguards in place. However, being proactive about detecting and mitigating breaches as soon as possible is crucial for maintaining operational continuity. As one of the first cybersecurity firms to offer real-time, 24/7 monitoring of organizations’ digital systems, we identify and address compromise indicators and unusual activities early. Other providers often outsource this type of service to overseas companies. We built ours in-house to ensure maximum control, transparency, and cost-effectiveness for clients.
- Phishing and spam filtering
- Managed detection and response
- Custom Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) monitoring
Responding to Incidents
We take our responsibility as on-call cybersecurity experts seriously. Our team is always prepared to respond in the event of a breach, helping minimize the potential impact of intrusions on clients’ systems and data. If an incident does occur, we guide and oversee the forensics process to identify the nature, extent, and potential perpetrator. As needed, we also stand ready to serve as a trusted liaison for third-party partners, such as cyber insurance policy providers, to facilitate an expedited and more effective response.
- Incident Investigation and digital forensics
- Liaison for third-party partners
- On-call expertise
Recovering from Breaches and Attacks
Whether it’s a minor or large-scale incident, the goal after any breach or attack is to implement security practices and controls to prevent it from happening again. We work alongside our clients to pinpoint and shore up potential gaps in their systems, enabling them to do just that. We also lighten the load by assisting their teams with any required follow-up, such as reporting and documentation.
- Root cause analysis
- Systems and security engineering
- Incident reporting and documentation
- Compliance reporting support
Ensuring a Strong Cybersecurity Posture
Now more than ever, maintaining a cybersecurity risk management strategy is an essential business function. We offer company leaders custom solutions and on-demand support to address their cybersecurity challenges, including serving as their go-to liaisons to external cybersecurity and compliance-related organizations.
