Cybersecurity consultant in Ottawa.
SOC 2 and ISO 27001 readiness, penetration testing, and fractional CISO services for Ottawa startups and SMBs. I'm based in Ontario and work remote-first across the National Capital Region, with on-site time when it helps.
Security and compliance help for Ottawa startups.
Ottawa's govtech, defence, and cybersecurity sector holds vendors to a high security bar, and compliance is frequently a procurement requirement.
I help Ottawa-area founders get secure, get compliant, and prove it to the customers and partners evaluating them, without the overhead of a big consulting firm. Whether you're clearing a stalled enterprise deal, preparing for an audit, or answering a security questionnaire for the first time, you work directly with me, not a junior analyst.
How I help Ottawa companies.
Working with a consultant in Ottawa.
Do you work with Ottawa startups remotely?
Yes. I'm based in Ontario and most engagements run fully remote, so I work with Ottawa founders and teams the same way whether you're downtown or in the National Capital Region.
Can you meet on-site in Ottawa?
For the National Capital Region engagements I can arrange on-site time for kickoffs, workshops, or audit prep when it genuinely helps. Day-to-day delivery is remote to keep things efficient.
What do Ottawa startups usually hire you for?
Most often SOC 2 or ISO 27001 readiness to unblock enterprise deals, a third-party penetration test to clear a customer security review, or a fractional CISO retainer to own security without a full-time hire.
Based in Ottawa and need security or compliance help?
Tell me what's driving the timeline, a stalled deal, an upcoming audit, or a customer asking hard security questions, and I'll point you to the right starting place.
