Principal-led by Christian Colburn, PSP. Mutual NDA available on request.

100% Vendor-Neutral & Product-Independent. We never sell hardware, software, or guard labor.

The stakes

Why this matters

As organizations grow, security often stays with a facilities manager who already has a full job. Vendor contracts renew without review, incidents are handled one at a time and the board hears about security only when something goes wrong.

A fractional director gives you senior ownership of the program — direction, accountability and executive reporting — on a cadence that fits your size.

Executive-level security leadership on a flexible cadence. We act as your internal security director—managing vendor contracts, running quarterly risk reviews, and briefing executive leadership without the full-time executive overhead.
