What Obetec does

OBETEC is a private cybersecurity and compliance advisory firm headquartered at 1603 Capitol Avenue, Suite 413, Cheyenne, Wyoming. The firm delivers a portfolio of advisory and point-in-time services to mid-market and large enterprises in highly regulated sectors including banking and financial services, healthcare, utilities and critical infrastructure, government contractors, payment processing, SaaS, gaming, non-profits, and government (local, state, federal). Coverage spans twelve compliance frameworks — ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA, CMMC, NIST CSF, NIST 800-53, NIST 800-171, PCI DSS, AI RMF, GDPR/CCPA, CIS, and NERC CIP — alongside point-in-time services such as penetration testing, vulnerability management, asset discovery, attack surface scanning, and risk assessments, plus strategic vCISO and business continuity advisory.

The firm's offerings are organized into named, tiered packages. Risk assessments are delivered across four escalating tiers — Vanguard Insight (external threat and dark web monitoring), Core Defense (internal posture assessment), Total Insight (combined review), and Cyber Resilience Continuum (remediation and ongoing monitoring) — and penetration testing across three tiers: Recon & Rapid Risk ID, Offensive Simulation, and Full Adversary Emulation Red Team. The company develops two proprietary assets: the Coeus Platform, a security management dashboard integrating third-party partner software and built by in-house developer Jared Smith, and the OBETEC Business Continuity Awareness Management mobile application. Delivery combines automated tooling (vulnerability scanning, dark web monitoring, attack surface scanning) with senior practitioner-led manual review.

Go-to-market is sales-led via direct consultative engagement through the website, phone, and email, with a quote-based pricing model structured as annual subscriptions, professional services retainers, or one-time engagements. Subscriptions do not auto-renew; purchases are non-refundable. Marketing is content-driven through a blog (with posts published as recently as October 2025), framework- and service-specific landing pages, a downloadable AI governance one-pager used as a lead magnet, and a maintained LinkedIn corporate presence. The disclosed leadership team of six averages over 40 years of experience and holds certifications including CISSP, CISM, CRISC, GPEN, and PMP.
