Lighthouse Program
Senior cybersecurity and IT counsel for small organizations who couldn't otherwise afford it. Reduced-fee engagements for community institutions, civic non-profits, and small operators serving the public good.
Who This Serves
Built for organizations doing important work on limited budgets.
Most cybersecurity and IT consulting is priced for organizations with enterprise budgets. The organizations that need senior counsel the most — underfunded community institutions, small municipalities with aging infrastructure, nonprofits holding sensitive data on the people they serve — often have no path to it.
Lighthouse exists to close that gap. It is the same senior practitioners, the same rigor, the same deliverables — scoped and priced for what mission-driven organizations can realistically afford and absorb. Engagements are structured tightly, paced to your calendar, and designed to produce something your board and funders can act on.
