You've Got Q's
We've Got A's
Don't see your question? Just ask.
How fast can you respond to an active ransomware incident?
Typically within 1 to 4 hours. Our IR team isolates affected systems, preserves forensic evidence, and stands up clean recovery infrastructure in parallel, so business can resume while investigation continues.
Do you offer nearshore and offshore staffing?
Yes. In addition to U.S.-based SRS, we offer nearshore staffing from Latin America for time-zone alignment and offshore staffing for 24/7 coverage and cost optimization. Mix and match across roles in a single engagement.
Do you provide AI governance and consulting?
Yes. Our Organizational AI Consulting practice helps companies define policy, evaluate vendors, deploy AI responsibly across teams, and measure ROI on AI investment. Frameworks align to NIST AI RMF, ISO 42001, and EU AI Act.
How are engagements priced?
Most engagements are fixed-scope or milestone-based. Incident response and staffing are time-and-materials. You'll get a written estimate before any work begins.
What size of company do you work with?
Our sweet spot is 50 to 1,000 employees, though we support larger organizations on specific engagements like M&A diligence, AI rollouts, and incident response.
