Most small businesses never needed a consultant in the parking lot. They needed a clear map and a fix list.
Point-in-time public surface review: TLS, email auth, headers, exposed panels, cert hygiene. Plain-English report you own either way.
Sanity Check plus a short, read-only pass inside — identity, backup jobs, firewall exports, admin screenshare — once you grant revocable access.
Focused multi-week push against the fix list: harden what matters, document what changed, leave you with a cleaner baseline.
Scoped agent installs, permission gates, revoke drills, and policies so staff AI use stops being a silent leak path.
Offboarding checklists, acceptable-use / AI policy that fits a small shop, incident and change lite, tabletop exercises over video.
Monthly external re-scan and plain-English delta. Optional log ship later for deeper digests. Quiet retainer, not a NOC cosplay.
Needs: prior engagement or clean scope handshake
