What ICS Cyber Management does

ICS Cyber Management is a privately held, US-based managed security services provider founded in July 2015 and headquartered in Birmingham, Alabama, with a second office in Hendersonville, Tennessee. The firm delivers cybersecurity services to small, mid-sized, and enterprise businesses across the country, anchored in 24/7/365 threat monitoring, incident response, and multi-framework compliance support (HIPAA, PCI, NYDFS, NIST). Service lines include SOC-as-a-Service, a Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP) offering, Zero Trust endpoint protection, Audit and Compliance Services, Virtual CISO (vCISO) advisory, and cybersecurity training.

The core technology is the INSIDE|OUT unified security platform, which combines cloud infrastructure with AI-driven anomaly detection to correlate threats across endpoint, network, and cloud attack vectors. INSIDE|OUT enables continuous monitoring, automated alerting, device isolation on breach detection, and threat containment, supplemented by a Zero Trust Application product (allowlisting, ringfencing, storage/elevation/network control) and a full-service SIEM with at least one year of log retention. Technology integrations with Secureworks, Kaseya, and ThreatLocker extend the capability stack in threat intelligence, IT management, and application control.

ICS Cyber Management operates a sales-led, consultative go-to-market targeting both SMBs and enterprises, with a relationship-driven sales approach, a 15-minute client response commitment, US-based delivery staff, and free cybersecurity assessments as top-of-funnel lead generators. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is tailored to client size and selected services. Revenue is generated through recurring managed services contracts plus professional services engagements (vCISO, compliance audits, training); the firm has no disclosed funding, parent company, or M&A history.
