What Wise Technical Innovations does

Wise Technical Innovations (WTI) is a Norfolk, Virginia-based privately held LLC founded in 2002 that operates as a dual-credentialed Authorized Training Provider (ATP) and Certified Third-Party Assessment Organization (C3PAO) within the CMMC (Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification) ecosystem. The firm delivers end-to-end services for federal contractors pursuing CMMC certification, including CCP and CCA certification training (priced $1,995–$4,895 per course), CMMC L2 assessment preparation, gap analysis, System Security Plan development, and implementation of its proprietary MVP Enclave architecture on Azure Government, GCC, and GCCH platforms for Controlled Unclassified Information handling. The company is EDWOSB- and HUBZone-certified, holds GSA HACS SIN 132-45, and has DHS/CISA-trained Lead Assessor capability for High Value Asset work, giving it direct federal procurement access in addition to commercial contractor work.

The consulting portfolio extends beyond CMMC into adjacent cybersecurity and federal compliance services: penetration testing, cyber hunt, incident response, vulnerability assessment, Health IT, and Assessment and Authorization work for federal civilian agencies per NIST SP 800-37. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time professional services fees (training courses, consulting engagements, enclave implementation projects) with a small recurring component from the CCA Practice Test Center subscription offering. Delivery is conducted through a 7-person team distributed across six Hampton Roads office locations (Norfolk headquarters plus Virginia Beach, Newport News, Hampton, Chesapeake, Portsmouth) and via Zoom-delivered virtual live and self-paced training with global reach.

The company's primary customer segments are Defense Industrial Base contractors handling CUI/FCI, Organizations Seeking Certification (OSCs), Managed Service Providers supporting government contractors, other C3PAOs needing assessor training, and Federal Civilian Agencies requiring ATO support. Named enterprise and government clients include Dollar Tree, LifeNet Health, the City of Virginia Beach, and the Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Center. Distribution combines direct website e-commerce for individual training, GSA Schedule contracting for federal agency buyers, and consultative enterprise field sales for assessment and enclave implementation engagements. The firm has no disclosed external funding, no M&A activity, and no public revenue disclosures; operations are tightly coupled to principal Koren Wise (Lead CCA/CCP/CISSP/PI), whose assessment track record — including documented perfect scores of 110 across multiple DIBCAC and C3PAO assessments using the MVP Enclave — is the central commercial asset.
