Cybersecurity for
Western NY Businesses

Security+ certified. Real InfoSec experience. Protecting Buffalo-area small businesses from modern cyber threats.

Small Businesses Are the #1 Target

Cybersecurity FAQ

Yes. Small businesses are targeted precisely because they often lack security controls. A ransomware infection can cost thousands in downtime and recovery — far more than preventive measures. One phishing email to an employee can compromise your entire network.
I examine your network perimeter, open ports, patch levels, user access controls, password policies, antivirus coverage, and data backup practices. You receive a written report with risk ratings and recommended fixes — in plain English, not tech jargon.
If you handle protected health information (PHI), yes — HIPAA's Security Rule requires administrative, physical, and technical safeguards. My Compliance Starter Pack is designed specifically to show you exactly where you stand and what you need to fix.
For a typical small business (under 20 users), the on-site or remote assessment takes 2–4 hours. I deliver the written report within 3–5 business days.
