Coming Soon
A free, open-source identity security framework built specifically for growing businesses. Combining AI threat guidance, IoT security, and identity protection into one practical resource written in plain language.
Every major security framework today was designed for large enterprises with dedicated security teams and substantial budgets. Growing businesses need something different.
Frameworks like NIST CSF 2.0, MITRE ATT&CK, ISO 27001, and OWASP were created with Fortune 500 companies in mind. They assume you have security teams, compliance officers, and enterprise-grade infrastructure.
Small and mid-sized businesses face the same threats but lack the resources to implement complex enterprise frameworks. They need practical guidance that matches their scale and reality.
The framework addresses the three critical security domains that every growing business must manage: identity, AI threats, and IoT vulnerabilities.
The foundation of all security. Control who has access to what across your business systems, applications, and data. Identity security determines whether threats succeed or fail.
AI tools introduce new identity and data risks. From ChatGPT to AI-powered accounting software, understand how these tools create exposure and what to do about it in practical terms.
Connected devices are identity entry points. Smart cameras, POS systems, printers, and smart locks all create access pathways that attackers exploit. Secure them practically.
The framework adapts to where your business is today, with guidance matched to your team size and resources.
For businesses just starting out with no IT team and minimal budget. Focus on essential security foundations.
For businesses with some IT support and multiple staff members sharing systems and data.
For businesses with dedicated IT staff, multiple departments, and established infrastructure.
For multi-department organizations scaling rapidly with complex operations and distributed teams.
