How Confident Are You in Your Cybersecurity and Compliance Posture?

Cyber threats, regulatory scrutiny, and client expectations continue to increase, leaving many organizations questioning whether their data, systems, and IT controls are truly protected. Dean Dorton’s expertise extends beyond technical protection, delivering a business-centric approach that aligns your cybersecurity program with regulatory requirements and organizational objectives. From understanding your current posture to building a mature, resilient program, we support you at every stage.

Cybersecurity Services

Comprehensive cybersecurity services

In an era of increasing cyber risks, Dean Dorton’s Cybersecurity Risk & Compliance services offer comprehensive protection built around your business, not just a checklist. We understand the varied challenges organizations face and provide solutions tailored to those needs:

Tailored Cybersecurity for Every Business Size

From small businesses to large corporations, our services are scalable to your specific requirements.

Proactive Threat Management

PERFORM A CYBERSECURITY ASSESSMENT

A full suite of cybersecurity services

Dean Dorton’s Cybersecurity Risk & Compliance services extend beyond software, spanning cybersecurity assessments, managed detection and response, virtual CISO services, compliance consulting, and incident response.

Our team supports organizations facing regulatory pressure, including frameworks such as SOC 1 and SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, FDIC, and PCI, as well as those navigating client-driven security requirements or maturing their internal cybersecurity program.

VCISO – VIRTUAL INFORMATION SECURITY OFFICE

Our team of experienced information security professionals provide executive-level security guidance that empowers your business. We can augment your organization’s cyber security and information security team or take the lead in designing, implementing, and maintaining a strong cyber security program.

CYBER SECURITY MATURITY MODEL COMPLIANCE (CMMC)

Our certified professional IT audit and cyber security team can help your organization keep their cyber security program compliant with the Department of Defense (DoD). Contractors working with FCI or CUI will be required to be compliant based on one or more of the three CMMC maturity levels.

SECURITY AWARENESS TRAINING

One of the most effective ways to prevent cyber attacks is to provide your team members with security awareness training. Make sure your employees know how to not only recognize a phishing email, but also alert your security team in order to analyze the email.

MANAGED CYBER DETECTION AND CYBER ATTACK RESPONSE

We provide immediate and effective prevention and detection against all types of cyber attacks, with comprehensive visibility and aggregated cyber threat detections to accelerate cyber threat investigation and cyber attack remediation.

CYBER LIABILITY INSURANCE POLICY REVIEW

There are two important questions related to cyber liability insurance. The first is whether coverage is sufficient. The second is whether the policy has compliance requirements that must be met prior to paying a claim. Dean Dorton can evaluate whether your cyber liability insurance policy is meeting your organization’s expectations.

CYBER INCIDENT RESPONSE

We offer cyber incident response and remediation assistance if your organization falls victim to a cyber attack.

CYBERSECURITY FOR SMALL BUSINESS

Tailored cybersecurity solutions designed for the unique needs of small businesses.
