One security document, answered in ten business days.

An insurance application, a customer questionnaire, or a contract security exhibit landed on your desk and something is stuck until it goes back. Send it to us. $3,500 fixed fee, advisory only, nothing installed, no hands on your systems.

Pick the one that matches. It takes you to a short intake form with your situation already filled in, and we reply within one business day to confirm scope.

What You Get

Fixed fee. Fixed scope. Fixed date.

The full $3,500 is credited toward a Leadership Baseline Assessment if you engage within 60 days.

  • Interviews with you and your IT provider or MSP
  • Answers written in your voice, with the evidence noted for each
  • A gap register with an owner and a date for every open item

  • An automatic upsell; the next step is only if you want it
How the Ten Days Run

You spend about three hours on it. We do the rest.

Day 1

Intake and scope

You send the document. A 30-minute call confirms scope, the deadline, and who on your side or at your MSP knows the answers.

Days 2-8

Answers and evidence

Short interviews with you and your IT provider. We draft every answer, flag anything that is not a clean yes, and note what evidence supports each one.

Days 9-10

Readout and handoff

You get the finished document, the gap register, and the remediation plan, walked through in a 30-minute readout. It is ready to send.

Who It's For

Built for businesses that have to answer to someone.

Typically 10 to 500 employees, with an MSP or small IT team and no one whose job is security. Common in:

If You Want More Later

Answer the one thing first. Decide the rest later.

Frequently Asked Questions

Before you send it over.

One triggering document, answered. That is the completed questionnaire, application, or exhibit response written in your voice, a gap register naming an owner and a date for every answer that is not a clean yes, a one-page remediation plan your IT provider or MSP can execute, and a 30-minute executive readout.

Most are still a fit. We confirm scope before you pay anything. If a document is genuinely larger than ten business days of work, we tell you that on the intake call and quote it honestly rather than rushing it.

No. We work from interviews with you and your IT provider, plus whatever documentation already exists. We never touch your systems, install anything, or ask for administrative credentials.

No. Every answer has to be one you can defend if a customer, carrier, or auditor asks for evidence. Where the honest answer is not yet yes, we say so, and the gap register shows how to get there.

Nothing, unless you want it to. Many clients stop here. If you want a full picture of your program, the entire $3,500 is credited toward a Leadership Baseline Assessment when you engage within 60 days.

No. CyberCascadia is advisory-only and never competes with your MSP. The remediation plan is written for them to execute, and most MSPs are glad to have a clear list instead of a vague request.
