You can't fix what you can't see. Find Your Risks, Close Your Gaps, Stay Compliant.
Independent cybersecurity risk and compliance assessments for healthcare, legal, financial, and growing businesses across Los Angeles. No tools to sell you. Just a clear picture of your risk and a roadmap you can actually execute.
Independent. Vendor-neutral. No sales agenda.
Most companies don't get breached by the risks they know about.
You've bought tools. You've passed an audit or two. But you still can't answer the question that matters: if an attacker hit us today, where would they get in — and would we even know?
Compliance Gap Assessment (Multi-Framework)
We benchmark your current posture against the standards that matter (HIPAA, NIST, CIS, SOC 2, PCI). You get a clear gap list, risk impact, and prioritized next steps. so you can prove progress—not just document gaps.
Risk Assessment and Prioritized Risk Register
We identify your highest-impact risks, quantify severity/likelihood, and produce a risk register leadership can actually use. Results are tied directly to remediation priorities and business objectives.
Control Mapping and Requirements Traceability
We translate regulatory requirements into mapped controls, owners, and operating procedures—so you can show exactly how you meet each requirement. Great for audits, due diligence, and customer security reviews.
Information System Risk Assessment
We evaluate your environment end-to-end—people, process, and technology—to pinpoint your highest business-impact risks. You get an executive summary plus a prioritized action plan.
Vulnerability and Exposure Assessment
We identify exploitable weaknesses across endpoints, servers, cloud, network and internet-facing services—then separate “noise” from what attackers can actually use. Findings are ranked by likelihood, impact, and remediation effort.
Third-Party and Vendor Risk Assessment
We assess vendor access, data sharing, and security maturity to reduce hidden supply-chain risk. You get a vendor risk rating, required remediation items, and recommended contract/security requirements.
We assess your cloud environment’s architecture, identity and access controls, network segmentation, data protection, and logging/monitoring—regardless of platform. You get prioritized risks and a practical roadmap to harden cloud workloads and reduce exposure.
We assess how your organization uses AI tools (public or internal) and where sensitive data, IP, or regulated information could leak. We identify risks like data exposure, prompt injection, insecure integrations, weak access controls, and missing governance—then deliver practical controls, policies, and a prioritized remediation roadmap to keep AI safe and compliant.
Why Choose Us
We don't resell tools. We don't take vendor kickbacks. We don't lock you into an MSP contract. That independence is the whole point — when we tell you a risk matters, it's because it matters to your business, not because there's a product attached to the recommendation. Here's how we work: we assess your environment, identify the control gaps, map requirements to real-world controls, and deliver a prioritized remediation roadmap you can execute. Then we stay in it with you — working alongside your IT and leadership teams to close gaps, strengthen controls, and keep you audit-ready over time. From HIPAA, NIST, CIS, and PCI alignment to evidence collection and executive reporting, we turn technical findings into business decisions and measurable risk reduction.

Industries
We work with organizations that face real security risks and regulatory pressure. Our experience spans industries where protecting data and ensuring operational continuity are critical.
Whether you're handling sensitive information, managing distributed teams, or preparing for audits, we understand the challenges—and build strategies to match.
Healthcare
We help healthcare organizations protect patient data, meet regulatory requirements, and strengthen their overall security posture. From HIPAA compliance to incident response planning, we understand the unique challenges healthcare providers face.
Legal
We support law firms and legal service providers in protecting sensitive client information, maintaining confidentiality, and meeting ethical obligations around data security. With the growing threat of cyberattacks targeting legal practices, we help firms implement clear policies, secure communications, and safeguard digital records.
Financial Services
We help financial institutions protect sensitive data, maintain customer trust, and meet strict regulatory requirements. Whether you're a bank, credit union, accounting firm, or fintech company, you face constant pressure to secure transactions, prevent fraud, and defend against cyber threats.
Small & Mid-Sized Businesses
We also support a wide range of organizations outside traditional high-risk sectors. Whether you're in real estate, logistics, education, manufacturing, or professional services, protecting sensitive data and ensuring operational continuity is essential. Cyber threats don’t discriminate by industry, and even businesses without regulatory pressure can face serious consequences from a breach.
Problems We Solve
Every organization carries risk it can't fully see. The hard part isn't buying more tools—it's knowing where you're actually exposed and why. Our risk assessments dig past the surface to find the root causes of vulnerability, whether that's gaps in policy, weak access controls, thin incident readiness, or compliance obligations you're not fully meeting. We don't hand you a list of generic fixes. We help you understand which risks matter to your business and what to do about them first.
Finding the Blind Spots
Most security gaps aren't obvious until something goes wrong. Missing policies, unmonitored systems, unclear ownership, and inconsistent practices tend to hide in plain sight. Our assessment process surfaces these blind spots and ranks them by real-world exposure, so you're not guessing about where your weaknesses are. The result is a clear picture of your security posture and a practical path to closing the gaps that create the most risk.
Risk That Affects the Business
We focus on the issues with genuine business impact—protecting sensitive data, preserving your reputation, avoiding financial loss, and keeping operations running. A risk assessment shouldn't be a checklist exercise; it should tell you what's actually at stake and where your dollars and attention will do the most good. Every finding we deliver comes with clear, prioritized guidance you can act on.
Advanced Technologies
A strong assessment depends on seeing the whole picture. We evaluate risk across cloud workloads, identities, endpoints, and data flows—using AI, automation, and current threat intelligence to spot exposure that manual reviews miss. The goal is depth without noise: a complete view of where you stand, mapped to your specific risk profile rather than industry hype.
Building Security Maturity
Many organizations struggle not from a lack of tools, but from a lack of strategy. Misaligned priorities, unclear accountability, and reactive decisions leave even well-funded environments exposed. A risk assessment is the starting point for fixing that—it gives you the structure and direction to turn scattered efforts into a coherent program. Security maturity isn't just about defense; it's about giving your business the clarity and control to move forward with less risk.
Testimonials
"As a mid-size company, we didn’t have the resources for a full-time CISO. Purple Shield’s vCISO gave us top-tier leadership and a clear roadmap to strengthen our security while scaling our business."
Cameron Eghbali - U.S. Games Dist.
"Working with Purple Shield as our virtual CISO has been a huge relief. They explain things in plain language, help us understand what really matters, and give us a clear plan instead of a long list of tools to buy. "
Raymond Sarraf - Sarraf Law Firm
"We were scaling fast and honestly had no idea if our security kept up. Purple Shield came in, reviewed everything, and built a roadmap that fit our budget and timeline. No scare tactics, no upsell—just honest advice and steady guidance. "
Martin Berman - Berman Financial Services
"We don’t have the budget for a full-time CISO, so having Purple Shield as our vCISO has been a lifesaver. They translated all the security jargon into plain English and gave us a clear plan we could actually follow. I finally feel like we know where we stand and what to do next."
