Your Auditors Want a Program. Your Insurer Wants Evidence. We Build Both.
Xact IT Solutions has delivered cybersecurity consulting services for over 20 years - zero client breaches on record, independently audited annually against the GTIA Cybersecurity Trustmark by Versprite, a CREST-accredited assessor. We translate NIST CSF, CIS Controls, HIPAA, SOC 2, and CMMC into a concrete roadmap your team can execute and your auditors can verify.
Capabilities
What Our Cybersecurity Consulting Services Include
Cybersecurity Program Roadmap
We map your current security posture against CIS Critical Security Controls, NIST CSF, or your regulator-specific framework and produce a prioritized, time-bound roadmap of technical controls, policy gaps, and evidence requirements. Every item is tied to a real risk and a real audit artifact – not a generic checklist your team has to interpret.
Fractional Security Leadership
For businesses without an in-house security leader, we step into that strategic role – attending board and leadership briefings, owning your security program calendar, and translating risk into plain language your executives and insurers can act on.
Framework Alignment and Compliance Posture
We build and document the technical controls, written policies, and evidence cadence required to support HIPAA, SOC 2, CMMC, GLBA, and ISO 27001 postures. The result is defensible documentation that holds up under audit and satisfies cyber-insurance underwriters – not a binder that gathers dust.
Third-Party and Vendor Risk Review
We assess the security posture of your key vendors and technology partners, identify the highest-risk relationships, and help you build the contractual and technical controls that prevent a vendor’s exposure from becoming yours.
Technical Control Implementation
Strategy without execution is a binder on a shelf. We implement the technical controls your roadmap calls for – identity and access management, network segmentation, endpoint protection architecture, and logging infrastructure – and validate each one against your framework requirements.
Ongoing Governance and Evidence Cadence
We establish the repeating schedule of reviews, tests, and documentation updates that keeps your program current. When a renewal, diligence request, or regulatory inquiry arrives, your evidence is already organized and your posture is already defensible.

CYBERSECURITY SERVICES
Need ongoing operational cybersecurity, not just consulting?
Consulting builds the roadmap. The day-to-day execution - 24/7 monitoring, endpoint defense, identity protection, incident response - lives in our managed Cybersecurity Services hub.

CYBER ASSESSMENT
Need a point-in-time security assessment first?
Before building a strategy, sometimes the right first step is a structured assessment against CIS IG2 to surface gaps and prioritize spend. Our Cybersecurity Assessment engagement produces a scored, defensible posture review.

Most businesses reach a tipping point: basic tooling is in place, but a full-time security team is not yet justified – and the gap is getting harder to ignore. Cyber-insurance renewals arrive with 40-question security questionnaires. A merger or acquisition triggers a diligence review that exposes missing policies. A regulator sends a finding letter. A near-miss incident forces leadership to ask what, exactly, is protecting the business. The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is explicit: mid-market organizations are not too small to be targeted, and reactive tooling alone does not constitute a defensible program. Waiting for an incident to force the question is already too late.
What separates Xact IT Solutions from generic providers is methodology and accountability. We do not arrive with a product to sell or a one-size framework to paste over your environment. We assess your actual posture against the specific controls your business is accountable to – CIS Controls, NIST CSF, ISO 27001, HIPAA, SOC 2, CMMC, or GLBA, depending on your regulatory profile – and produce a roadmap that ties every recommended control to a specific risk, a specific requirement, and a specific evidence artifact. We apply the same standard to ourselves: independently audited annually since 2021 by Versprite, a CREST-accredited assessor, against the GTIA Cybersecurity Trustmark. We do not ask clients to hold themselves to a standard we have not met.
Our cybersecurity consulting services fit mid-market businesses that have moved past basic tooling and need a program-level strategy – particularly those facing a cyber-insurance renewal, an acquisition diligence event, a regulatory inquiry, or new leadership demanding accountability. They fit especially well when there is no in-house security leader and the business needs fractional strategic guidance alongside hands-on implementation. They are not the right fit for organizations that want a one-time test with no follow-through, or for businesses that want the lowest-cost checkbox rather than a defensible, operational program.

A 20-Year Record That Speaks for Itself
Xact IT Solutions has operated for over 20 years with a record that is rare in this industry: zero client breaches across our entire client history. We hold active compliance posture across HIPAA, SOC 2, and CMMC frameworks and have been independently audited annually since 2021 by Versprite, a CREST-accredited assessor, against the NIST Cybersecurity Framework standards underlying the GTIA Cybersecurity Trustmark. That is not a marketing claim – it is an independently verified, annually renewed designation that fewer than a fraction of IT firms have earned. The U.S. Small Business Administration recommends that businesses of all sizes follow formal cybersecurity frameworks – exactly the standard we build every client program around.
A typical engagement begins with a scoping conversation on your strategy call, where we confirm your regulatory profile, your most pressing driver – insurance renewal, diligence, regulatory finding, or program-building from scratch – and your internal resources. Within the first two weeks we complete your current-state assessment and deliver a gap analysis. By week four you have a finalized roadmap with prioritized milestones, owners, and target dates. Implementation follows – we work alongside your team, not around them – and by the end of the engagement you have not just a plan but a functioning, documented, evidence-supported program. Explore how this work integrates with our IT compliance services to cover every layer of your regulatory obligations.
In the first 30 to 90 days, clients consistently report three things: they understand their actual risk posture for the first time, their cyber-insurance renewal becomes a straightforward conversation rather than a painful questionnaire, and their leadership team has a clear, plain-language view of where the business stands. Helpdesk noise does not go up – it goes down, because a structured program catches problems before they become incidents. That is what quiet looks like.
Frequently Asked Questions About Cybersecurity Consulting Services
What do cybersecurity consulting services cost?
Engagements are scoped based on your organization’s size, regulatory profile, current posture, and the depth of implementation work required. We do not publish fixed pricing because a business facing a CMMC audit with 200 employees has materially different needs than a 40-person firm managing a cyber-insurance renewal. Pricing is discussed directly on the strategy call, where we can give you a real scope based on your actual situation – not a generic package. What we will not do is give you a number before we understand your environment.
How long does a cybersecurity consulting engagement take?
Assessment and roadmap delivery typically takes two to four weeks. Full program implementation – including technical controls, written policies, and evidence infrastructure – generally runs three to six months depending on scope. Ongoing governance is a continuing relationship, not a one-time project. We will give you a realistic timeline estimate on the strategy call once we understand your starting point and your target milestones.
What happens on the strategy call?
The strategy call is a free, 20-minute conversation with our team – not a sales presentation, not a pitch deck. You tell us where you are: what is driving the urgency, which frameworks or regulations apply, what you have already tried, and what your biggest open questions are. We tell you what we would do first and why. You leave with specific, actionable input you can use regardless of whether you engage us. There is no obligation and no follow-up pressure.
How is Xact IT different from a typical cybersecurity consulting firm?
Three things set us apart. First, we have zero client breaches in over 20 years – a record we can substantiate and that most firms cannot match. Second, we hold ourselves to the same standard we apply to clients: independently audited annually by Versprite, a CREST-accredited assessor, against the GTIA Cybersecurity Trustmark. Third, we do not arrive with a product to sell. Our consulting is methodology-first – we assess your environment against the specific frameworks you are accountable to, build a roadmap that ties every control to a real risk and a real evidence requirement, implement what we recommend, and stay to govern what we build.
Do you serve clients outside New Jersey?
Yes. While Xact IT Solutions is headquartered in Marlton, New Jersey, we serve businesses across the United States. Our cybersecurity consulting services are delivered remotely by design – we build environments and programs that do not require on-site visits to function. If your IT or security provider needs to be in your office regularly, that is a sign the environment was not built correctly. Clients in any U.S. state are welcome to book a strategy call.
Ready to Build a Cybersecurity Program Your Auditors Can Actually Verify?
The strategy call is 20 focused minutes with our cybersecurity consulting team. You will leave with specific recommendations you can act on immediately – whether you engage us or not. No pitch deck. No obligation. No follow-up pressure.
