Cybersecurity

Your biggest risk isn’t a hacker. It’s the former employee whose Slack still works.

We secure the systems modern companies actually run on. Identity, email, DNS, devices, compliance. Not a monitoring dashboard. Not a framework PDF. The assessment, the architecture, and the actual implementation inside your tenants and codebases.

  • Identity & email hardened end-to-end
  • HIPAA or SOC 2 on a defined timeline
  • Security questionnaires answered in days

What Lands
Engagement Scope

Posture, not a platform.

Qualitative markers that separate implementation from monitoring.

First Hardening
30–60 days

Identity + email layer, done.

Vertical Slice
7 layers

Identity, email, DNS, HIPAA, MDM, audit, IR.

End State
Audit-ready

Posture that survives your next hire & vendor.

Symptoms

The state of most 50–500 person stacks.

Five signs security stopped being optional a quarter ago.

Shared logins live in Slack and Notion. No central password manager. No MFA on the accounts that actually matter. Half the team still has admin to tools they haven’t touched in six months. Nobody can confidently tell you who has access to what after someone leaves.

Email is wide open. SPF on softfail. DMARC missing or set to do nothing. OAuth consents unreviewed for years.

Compliance is now a deadline. SOC 2 in six weeks. Insurance renewal in thirty days. HIPAA at MVP launch.

Ghost access. A former employee’s Slack, Notion, and Google logins still work six months later. Nobody removed them.

?

Tools without posture. Tens of thousands spent on EDR and SIEM. Meanwhile admin passwords still live in a Notion page.

The Approach

Full vertical slice. Not a narrow sliver.

Monitoring platforms watch for alerts. They don’t fix the posture that created them.

Big 4 firms deliver assessments and frameworks, then hand the implementation work back to you.

Cheap MSSPs run commodity agents and offshore ticket queues without ever touching strategic decisions.

OpsKings sits in the middle and owns the whole stack. The assessment, the architecture, the actual implementation inside your tenants and codebases, the documentation, and the ongoing response when it’s needed.

Identity & access layer

Enforced MFA, SSO + passwordless, password manager, directory sync.

Email & domain hygiene

SPF, DKIM, DMARC enforcement with reporting. Stale DNS & SSL cleaned.

Compliance & policies

HIPAA from MVP, SOC 2 on timeline, runbooks and evidence trail.

Methodology

How the engagement runs

Four stages. From honest baseline to ongoing posture maintenance. Every step leaves you with an artifact your team can operate from after we’re gone.

01 / ASSESS

Security audit

Severity-ranked findings across identity, email, DNS, devices, data flow, and compliance. The honest baseline. No soft-pedalling.

02 / ARCHITECT

Ranked remediation roadmap

What we’ll fix, in what order, on what timeline. Aligned with whatever deadline is driving the engagement: compliance, insurance renewal, enterprise deal.

03 / IMPLEMENT

Actual hardening, in your tenants

Hands inside your Workspace, Azure, Okta, HubSpot, codebase. Configs changed, policies enforced, OAuth grants cleaned, BAAs signed.

04 / MAINTAIN

Runbooks, docs, optional retainer

Configuration docs, SOPs for breakglass and offboarding, incident response playbooks. Retainer clients get ongoing monitoring and response.

Seven layers. Every one actually shipped.

Not a deck of recommendations. Components we architect, implement, document, and keep running.

Identity & access

SSO, passwordless auth, enterprise password management, breakglass accounts, directory sync.

Email & deliverability

SPF, DKIM, DMARC enforced and reporting. Full tenant defederations and migrations off legacy providers.

DNS & domain

Stale records, exposed subdomains, SSL and certificate hygiene. Your domain is part of the attack surface.

HIPAA for SaaS

Enterprise hosting and database upgrades with signed BAAs. De-identification patterns, schema design, vendor mapping.

Device management

Full visibility and policy enforcement across employee and BYOD fleets. Every device that touches company data is accounted for.

Incident response

Playbooks built before you need them. Your team knows exactly what to do the moment an alert fires.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

Does SOC 2 make us secure?
No. It makes you auditable. It proves controls exist and are documented, not that they’re any good. Companies get breached the same year they pass SOC 2 all the time. We build real posture. The audit evidence is a byproduct.
How fast can you hit a compliance deadline?
Identity and email hardening lands in 30 to 60 days. HIPAA or SOC 2 Type 1 readiness depends on scope, but a focused 60-day sprint is realistic if leadership clears the calendar. The compliance pass itself is fast. What’s hard is the maintenance year over year.
Do you replace our EDR / MSSP?
No, and we’re honest about it. Monitoring platforms have their place. We own the posture and architecture: the assessment, the implementation, the policies, the maintenance. The two work well together once the underlying stack is actually secured.
Is this under the OpsKings brand?
Yes. Same brand, same team, same intake. For existing OpsKings clients, security folds into the ongoing engagement. No second contract, no separate onboarding. For new clients, it can be a standalone engagement or the entry point.
