Eminere Group

What Eminere Group does

Eminere Group LLC is a Tampa, Florida-based IT risk management and cybersecurity advisory firm founded in 2011 by Johan Lidros. The firm operates as a premium assurance and advisory consultancy rather than a software vendor, delivering professional services across four core practice areas: IT Risk Management and Assurance, Information Security and Privacy, IT Strategy and Management (including COBIT and ITIL implementations), and Business Risk Advisory (including internal audit and enterprise risk management). The firm applies established frameworks including COBIT, ISO 27000-series, ITIL, NIST, HITRUST, and RISK IT to assess and manage client IT environments. All work is performed by certified professionals holding credentials such as CISA, CISM, CGEIT, CRISC, ITIL-F, and HITRUST CCSFP. There are no proprietary technology products; the firm's intellectual property is its domain expertise and methodology application.

The firm concentrates on three verticals: healthcare, higher education, and financial services, with additional government engagements. Named clients include Adventist Health, Brooks Health System, Princeton HealthCare System, Renown Health, Lakeland Regional Health, Nemours, Scripps (healthcare); Arizona State University, Brown University, Louisiana State University (higher education); and Raymond James Bank, Suncoast Federal Credit Union, and Horace Mann (financial services). The firm maintains its headquarters in South Tampa at 517 W Davis Blvd and has expanded into a Middle-America presence in Little Rock, Arkansas, with Chief Customer Experience Officer Thomas Smith splitting time between locations. Eminere Group does not list funding, institutional investment, acquisitions, or parent entities in source material.

The business model combines custom advisory engagements (delivered via direct sales, RFP, phone, and email) with a productized training offering introduced in August 2023 when Eminere became an ISACA Accredited Training Partner. Training revenue is publicly priced at $795 per course for AHIA/ACUA members and $895 for non-members, covering CISA, CISM, CRISC, and CGEIT certification review classes. Go-to-market relies on thought leadership through industry conference presentations (AHIA, ACUA, FHIMA, HCCA, COSAC APAC), a weekly Risk IT! newsletter, and a monthly Hot Topics in IT Audit and Cybersecurity forum hosted by Johan Lidros. Pricing for advisory services is quote-based and not publicly disclosed.
