CyberSurance

What CyberSurance does

CyberSurance is a veteran-owned cybersecurity consulting firm founded in 2013 and headquartered in Westlake Village, California, with a second office in Aliso Viejo. The company delivers a comprehensive suite of professional cybersecurity services to mid-to-large commercial enterprises and federal government/defense contractors, including vulnerability management, penetration testing, digital forensics, compliance consulting, cloud security, risk management, zero trust network architecture (ZTNA), AI security and governance, and managed security services. Service delivery is staffed by former CISOs and senior practitioners holding elite certifications (CISSP, C|CISO, CRISC, OSCP, GXPN, CISA, CISM, C-DPO), with dedicated project teams assigned per engagement rather than offshore or call-center support.

The company operates a sales-led, enterprise field-sales motion with quote-based, scope-driven engagement pricing. Revenue is generated through three streams: project-based professional services, recurring managed security engagements (CISO-as-a-Service, Virtual DPO, Virtual BCMO, Quarterly Digital Forensic Analysis), and PECB-certified training courses covering NIST, NIS 2, SOC 2, CMMC, ISO/IEC 27033, and SCADA security. As a certified Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB) with CMMC and ISO 27001 credentials and active federal contractor registration (UEI, CAGE, DUNS; NAICS 541512, 541519, 541690, 611420), CyberSurance pursues both commercial and government/defense procurement channels. Geographic operations are confined to California with no disclosed international footprint, and the company maintains strategic alliances with the British Standards Institution, SlashNext, PaperClip, and CyberSN, alongside pro-bono veteran community engagements with the Gold Coast Veterans Foundation and America Supporting Americans.
