What Triden Group does

Triden Group is a privately held, San Diego-based cybersecurity and IT infrastructure services firm founded in 2016, operating with approximately 115 team members across a single California headquarters. The company organizes its offering into four practice pillars: Cybersecurity (Managed Detection and Response, Identity and Access Management, Endpoint Detection and Response, Extended Detection and Response, Infrastructure Security, Application Security, and the proprietary TG Pen Test subscription), Compliance and Risk (Third-Party Risk Management, Governance Risk and Compliance, Enterprise Risk Management, the tiered TG vCISO service, and Tabletop Exercises), Cloud Security (Public Cloud Solutions, Disaster Recovery, Backup, and Cloud Security services spanning CASB, SASE, CPSM, and CWPP), and Infrastructure Security (Cloud and Network Managed Services, IT Consulting, and IT Staff Augmentation). TG Pen Test and TG vCISO are the company's proprietary, subscription-based differentiators, with vCISO engagements staffed by two CISOs and offered in Lite, Pro, and Elite tiers.

The business model is a mix of recurring managed services, subscription-based assessment and advisory offerings, and project-based professional services including staff augmentation and IT consulting; pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Triden Group sells through a consultative, direct enterprise field-sales motion with multiple consultation entry points (Request a Demo, Speak with an Advisor, Schedule a Consultation, Request Call Back) and supports demand generation through content marketing, case studies, and a TG Talks video series. The company pursues a vertical go-to-market spanning Healthcare, Biotech, Retail, Finance, Education, Government, and Manufacturing, with named customers in accounting, retail, and manufacturing.

Underlying technology is an integrated services stack rather than a unified software platform: Triden Group layers proprietary service processes (TG Pen Test, TG vCISO) on top of core partnerships with Cisco (Duo Security) for MFA, AWS and Microsoft Azure for cloud and backup, and best-in-class MDR providers for 24/7 monitoring. The portfolio is positioned for mid-market and enterprise clients that lack in-house cybersecurity leadership and need compliance support across frameworks including SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS, NCUA, GLBA, NIST, and ISO. The company is bootstrapped with no disclosed external funding rounds and remains privately held under co-founder and managing partner Robert Uno, CEO Paul Edge, and CTO/Co-founder Derek Pocoroba.

Product overview

Triden Group is a solutions and services company (not a product company) providing tailored, comprehensive cybersecurity and IT infrastructure services. The company operates across four main service pillars: Cybersecurity (including MDR, IAM, EDR, XDR, Infrastructure Security, Application Security, and TG Pen Test), Compliance & Risk (including TPRM, GRC, ERM, vCISO, and Tabletop Exercises), Cloud Security (including Public Cloud Solutions, Disaster Recovery, Backup, and Cloud Security services with CASB/SASE/CPSM/CWPP), and Infrastructure Security (including Cloud Managed Services, Network Managed Services, IT Consulting, and Staff Augmentation). The portfolio is organized as a services-led portfolio rather than a unified software product platform; each service area functions as a distinct practice with specialized sub-offerings. TG Pen Test is a proprietary subscription-based assessment service, while TG vCISO offers tiered virtual CISO services. Services are designed for scalability and integration across healthcare, biotech, retail, finance, education, and government sectors.
