BirdSec CYBERSECURITY CONSULTING & ADVISORY
Durham, NC • Serving regional SMBs • vCISO + Threat Intelligence

Cyber Risk operationalized.

BirdSec is a security leadership and advisory built for organizations that need enterprise-grade clarity without enterprise overhead. We turn your current security program into a decision- and action-based system clearly linked to business priorities.

For executives, this means fewer surprises, clearer priorities, and defensible decisions when something goes wrong. We focus on reducing material risk, avoiding unplanned spend, and giving leadership a defensible security posture.

What you get: an executive-ready risk narrative, a living risk register, and a pragmatic roadmap that actually informs.

Three ways BirdSec integrates

Pick the entry point that matches your urgency. Everything rolls into a single operating model: risk → controls → decisions.

Most clients start with an assessment, retain us for leadership, and then selectively invest in foundations.
