About | Purplehelix

// Meet the Founder

Purplehelix was founded on a simple observation: small businesses face the same cyber threats as large enterprises, but without the budget, staff, or access to real expertise.

With over a decade of hands-on experience in IT, cybersecurity, and risk management, I started Purplehelix to bridge that gap. I've worked with businesses of all sizes and seen firsthand what works, what doesn't, and where small businesses get left behind.

This isn't about selling fear or overpriced tools. It's about practical IT and security solutions that actually make a difference for your business.

// Why "Purplehelix"

The name combines "red team" offensive security techniques with "blue team" defensive methodologies - creating purple - in an interconnected, evolving security program - the helix.

What we believe.

Transparency

We communicate clearly about security risks without unnecessary jargon or fearmongering. You'll always know what we found, what it means, and what to do about it.

Practicality

We focus on realistic solutions that provide the greatest security improvement for the investment. No theoretical recommendations that sit on a shelf.

Expertise

We maintain deep knowledge of both cybersecurity best practices and industry-specific regulations. When examiners call, you'll be ready.

Partnership

We build long-term relationships based on trust and measurable results. Your success is our success - and we're in it for the long haul.

// Our Approach

The Outside-In Methodology™

We start where attackers start - your exposed perimeter - and work inward. This delivers immediate risk reduction where it matters most.

External Perimeter

We map what attackers see first - internet-facing systems, public data, cloud services, and web applications.

Email & Authentication

The primary attack vector. We audit email security, remote access, VPNs, and every authentication point.

Compliance Mapping

We map your current controls against your specific regulatory requirements - identifying gaps and building your roadmap.

Employee Awareness

Your team is your last line of defense. We build security-aware culture through training and simulation.

Continuous Improvement

Security isn't a one-time project. We monitor, reassess, and adapt as threats evolve and your business grows.

IT and security expertise that actually fits.
