Cybersecurity for Professional Services Firms
Consulting, staffing and architecture and engineering firms are trusted with other companies' data, which makes them the way in. cAIberOps runs managed email, endpoint and AI security so you can answer a client's security review with evidence, not promises. Nationwide, including Washington DC, Northern Virginia, and Maryland.
What your clients and contracts ask about
Client security reviews, federal and defense work, and cyber insurance arrive as questionnaires with the same questions.
Client security reviews
Enterprise clients ask about email filtering, endpoint detection and response, MFA, incident response and AI use before they sign. The monthly report and the posture report are the answers.
Federal and defense work
NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC practices may apply to the office systems where controlled information travels; your contract and your assessor decide. We run and evidence the email, endpoint and account controls; certification or self-assessment happens under the CMMC program, by a C3PAO where the level requires it; we are not an assessor.
Cyber insurance
MFA on email and remote access, endpoint detection and response, and a named incident process. Our services are the line items on the form.
We run controls that support these frameworks and document what we did. We do not certify, audit, write your policies or guarantee compliance; that is your assessor's or counsel's role.
Professional services firms we protect
Consulting firms
Client data in the inbox, on the laptop and increasingly in AI drafts. Email protection, endpoint protection and AI data loss prevention cover the three places.
Staffing and recruiting agencies
Resumes and IDs arrive by email through the day from people you have not met, which is exactly how malicious attachments arrive. Attachment cleaning and sandboxing handle each file.
Architecture and engineering firms
Large drawings, shared links and project portals. Click-time link checks and web threat protection cover the links; endpoint protection covers the workstation running the CAD license.
Marketing, PR and creative agencies
Client logins, campaign budgets and vendor invoices by email. Account takeover detection and the quarantine review catch the invoice that is not from your vendor.
How cAIberOps (SY-ber-ops) protects you
Three managed services, priced per user or per endpoint, the same in each sector.
Managed Email Security
Zero-day sandboxing, attachment cleaning, click-time link checks and account takeover detection on Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, with the quarantine reviewed seven days a week and whatever gets through investigated with no time cap. Starts at $6.40 per user per month.
Managed Email SecurityManaged Endpoint Protection
Anti-ransomware with file rollback, behavioral analysis, sandboxing for downloads and USB control on each device, with alerts investigated by us. Starts at $8 per endpoint per month.
Managed Endpoint ProtectionManaged AI Security
Discovery of the AI tools your staff use, data loss prevention for prompts and uploads, and policy enforcement, so client data stays out of personal AI accounts. Starts with a free Shadow AI Discovery.

Questions from professional services
What size businesses do you work with?
Small and medium businesses and nonprofits, typically 10 to 500 employees, nationwide. Pricing is per user or per endpoint, so a 12-person firm and a 300-person firm pay the same rate.
Can you fill in our client's security questionnaire?
We give you the evidence for the controls we run, in the monthly and posture reports, which answers the technical sections. The rest of the questionnaire is yours.
Do you require long-term contracts?
No. A simple yearly subscription with no onboarding fee and no multi-year contract.
Our staff work on client networks. Does the protection follow them?
Endpoint protection is on the laptop, so yes. Email protection is on the mailbox, so it follows wherever they read mail.
