What Securance Consulting does

Securance Consulting (legal entity Securance LLC) is a Tampa, Florida-based IT risk management and cybersecurity consulting firm founded in 2002 by former Big 4 technology consultants. The firm serves enterprise organizations and government agencies across 17 verticals (healthcare, financial services, defense, SLED, energy/utilities, manufacturing, retail, communications, and others) with a services portfolio that includes cybersecurity assessments, IT risk assessments, IT audits, compliance (NIST CSF, CMMC, HIPAA, HITECH), AI Security, ransomware readiness, incident response training, advanced persistent threat simulation, privileged user security, governance consulting, and staff augmentation. The firm pairs these project-based engagements with two retainer-style offerings — Virtual CISO (vCISO) and Cybersecurity-as-a-Service (CSaaS) — plus a Dark Web Monitoring subscription, creating recurring revenue on top of one-time assessments.

Its core technology is the InsightTrack-GRC platform, a client-facing governance, risk, and compliance workspace that includes remediation tracking, IT audit plan management, dark web monitoring, and vCISO deliverable management, included with engagements and providing 12 months of complimentary access after report delivery. Two supporting proprietary tools — the SCGRC web-based risk calculator (questionnaire-driven, generates three-year IT audit plans) and the Securance 11 Index (a free AI governance benchmark across 11 domains) — serve as both delivery accelerators and top-of-funnel lead-generation assets. The firm is operated as Securance LLC, with 11-50 employees (all senior consultants with 20+ years of experience and credentials such as CISSP, CISA, CISM, CPA), headquartered at 13916 Monroes Business Park, Tampa, FL, with no outside funding rounds or institutional investors disclosed in the source materials.

Commercially, Securance runs an enterprise-field-sales motion: complimentary 30-minute discovery calls, 24-hour response time, and direct senior-consultant engagement with executive-level buyers. Pricing is fully quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Notable named clients include Pool Corporation (long-tenured sole IT assessment provider), Colorado Broadband Office (BEAD program cybersecurity technical assistance on a $420.6M federal initiative), United Bankshares, Radford University, The Pantry, Dairyland Power Cooperative, CloudWave, and Hexcel; the firm reports that over 50% of clients use Securance as their sole IT assessment provider.
