Ongoing vulnerability monitoring, monthly security checks, and a dedicated expert who actually fixes issues — so your business stays protected as threats evolve.
Not a one-time report. Continuous protection that improves every month.
Drafted security assessments, NIST 800-53 control documentation, and contingency plans for a NASA program via Global Science & Technology
Planned and executed incident response tabletop exercises evaluating organizational preparedness in a government-regulated environment
Monitored system logs using Splunk and tracked remediation workflows using Jira in a high-stakes federal contracting environment
IDcore was built on a simple observation: the compliance frameworks that protect federal agencies and NASA programs are the same frameworks small businesses need — they just can't afford the $20,000 consulting engagements to implement them.
Our founder spent a summer as a cybersecurity contractor on the NASA NRESS II program through Global Science & Technology — doing the kind of work most consultants charge enterprise rates for: authoring NIST 800-53 security control documentation, supporting the Authority to Operate process, writing contingency plans, and running incident response tabletop exercises in a government-regulated environment.
That's the standard we bring to every IDcore client. The same NIST framework. The same rigor around documentation and evidence. Delivered as an ongoing monthly service, priced for a 15-person firm, not a federal agency.
Most tools watch your compliance and send reports. IDcore actively manages it — the same way a bookkeeper manages your finances.
Automated scans, dashboards, alert emails
You figure out what to do with the results
Reports pile up unread in your inbox
Score never actually improves
No one to call when something goes wrong
Dedicated compliance manager for your firm
Policies written, customized, and maintained
Monthly call with one clear action item
Score improves every month — you can see it
Someone picks up when you need them
No black-box software. No alert fatigue. Six concrete things that keep your compliance current — including hands-on security scanning of your network and systems.
We write your security policies using the NIST framework — the same standard applied in federal ATO processes — in plain language your staff can actually follow. Updated whenever your business changes.
Not generic templates. Policies built for your business, reviewed every month.
Your score updates every month as gaps get closed. Month 1 you might be at 42. By month 6 you're at 74. You can see it working — and show it to anyone who asks.
Not a one-time snapshot. A living score that reflects what's actually been fixed.
We organize your compliance evidence — signed policies, training records, control screenshots — so when your insurer or a client asks, you have it ready in 60 seconds. No scrambling at renewal.
The same evidence discipline required in federal ATO packages, built for your firm.
We review your score, confirm what got done, set one clear priority for next month, and answer any questions. One call keeps your entire compliance program on track.
Not a chatbot. A real person who knows your business and its compliance history.
Every month we run real scans against your network and systems with professional-grade tools — mapping open ports, exposed services, outdated software, missing patches, and weak configurations. Each finding is ranked by severity.
The same kind of scanning used by federal agencies, translated into plain-language remediation steps.
We audit firewalls, cloud settings, and system configurations against security baselines to catch misconfigurations before they become breaches. Every vulnerability is logged and tracked until it's resolved — so risk goes down month over month with clear evidence of progress.
No checkbox reports. A real technical review with prioritized fixes you can verify.
The organization handled donor data, credit card payments, and student records with no documented security program. Staff had never received formal security training. No incident response procedures existed for ransomware, phishing, or breach scenarios.
We mapped their full environment — Google Workspace, Salesforce, Clover, FairHarbor — against NIST Cybersecurity Framework controls, applying the same structured methodology used in federal security programs.
No written incident response plan — staff had no documented procedures for breach, ransomware, or phishing scenarios
MFA not enforced on Google Workspace — donor records and financial data accessible without a second factor
No formal offboarding process — departed employee accounts not systematically disabled or revoked
Vendor risk unassessed — Salesforce, Clover, and FairHarbor handle sensitive data with no security review on file
No security awareness training program — staff untrained on phishing recognition, no annual acknowledgment records
"Before this assessment, we assumed our Google and Clover settings were enough. We didn't realize we had no plan if something actually went wrong."

No technical setup required — we handle everything.

IDcore provides cybersecurity compliance services for small businesses. Our services include, but are not limited to:
All reports, assessments, and recommendations provided by IDcore are informational in nature. While we follow industry-standard methodologies and frameworks (including NIST 800-53), no vulnerability scan or security assessment can guarantee the detection of all vulnerabilities, threats, or security gaps. The cybersecurity landscape evolves constantly, and new threats may emerge after an assessment is completed.
IDcore shall not be held liable for any damages, losses, or security incidents that occur before, during, or after our engagement. This includes, but is not limited to, data breaches, unauthorized access, system downtime, financial losses, or reputational harm. Our services are designed to improve your security posture, but they do not constitute a guarantee against cyber threats or attacks.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, IDcore, its owners, employees, contractors, and affiliates shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from or related to:
The client acknowledges and agrees that cybersecurity is an inherently evolving and imperfect discipline. No security service can guarantee complete protection from all threats. By engaging IDcore, the client agrees that our total liability, under any circumstances, shall not exceed the total fees paid by the client to IDcore in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim.
The client acknowledges that engaging IDcore does not eliminate cybersecurity risk. Security assessments and scans provide a point-in-time view and may not detect every vulnerability. The client assumes all risk associated with the operation and security of their own systems, networks, and data, and agrees that IDcore is not responsible for any security events or outcomes, whether or not IDcore has performed services for the client.
The client agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless IDcore, its owners, employees, and contractors from any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including legal fees) arising out of or in connection with:
Clients are responsible for:
IDcore provides guidance and documentation, but the client retains full responsibility for applying fixes and maintaining ongoing security within their own systems.
By engaging IDcore for any scanning or assessment services, the client confirms that they have proper authorization to scan, test, and assess the systems, networks, and applications in scope. IDcore will only perform scans and assessments on systems that the client has explicitly authorized. Clients must not request scans on systems they do not own or have written permission to test.
IDcore may use third-party tools, software, and services (such as vulnerability scanners, compliance platforms, and reporting tools) as part of our assessments and ongoing services. While we select reputable, industry-standard tools, IDcore is not responsible for the accuracy, availability, or limitations of these third-party products. Results from third-party tools are provided as-is and interpreted through our professional expertise.
IDcore makes no warranties, express or implied, regarding the outcomes of its services. There is no guarantee that our services will prevent any specific cyber attack, data breach, compliance failure, or regulatory penalty. All services are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis.
