Rock Fortress

Security and compliance advisory

Security leadership, on demand

Rock Fortress gives growing organizations an experienced security leader and the hands-on help to back it up, from SOC 2, HIPAA and HITRUST readiness to cloud security and day-to-day IT operations.

Services

What we do

Engagements are scoped to what you need: a standing security leader, a push to your first audit, or a team that runs the work alongside yours.

Leadership

Fractional CISO

A named security leader for your board, customers and auditors, without a full-time executive hire. We own the security program, the roadmap and the customer security questionnaires.

Compliance

Compliance readiness

Scoping, controls, policies and evidence for SOC 2, HIPAA and HITRUST, so your audit runs on schedule and the program holds up after it.

Operations

Security and IT operations

Hands-on administration, hardening and monitoring, carried out in your environment with your tools, so the controls on paper are the controls in production.

Cloud

Cloud security

Identity, access and configuration reviews across Microsoft 365, Azure and AWS, built on least privilege and documented so they stand up to an audit.

Approach

How we work

01

Inside your environment

We work in your tenant using the tools you provide. Your data stays where it belongs, and access ends cleanly when the engagement does.

02

Audit-defensible by default

Every control, access decision and exception is documented so an auditor or a customer can follow the reasoning.

03

Transparent recommendations

When we recommend a compliance platform or tool, we tell you about any partner relationship we have with it, up front.
