We Fix Your Security. Once, For A Price We Name First.
Most small businesses don’t have a security problem so much as a latch problem. The door exists; nobody fitted the hasp. We fit it — passkeys instead of passwords, mail and file-sharing locked down, a written plan for the bad day, and the paperwork your insurer keeps asking for — as one project with one invoice.
“If you can’t explain a control to your office manager, you don’t have a control. You have a decoration.”
— The Hasp & Staple house rule
Enterprise security sells fear by the seat and renews itself every January. We think a twelve-person firm needs maybe four things done properly, written down in plain English, and then left alone. So that is the whole business.
Why the name
Hardware You Can Check By Eye
Three parts. All visible.
A hasp swings over a staple, and a padlock goes through both. Any owner can look at it and know whether it’s shut. We build security the same way: a few parts, each one named, each one checkable by someone who isn’t technical.

Jobs we’d scope tomorrow
Two Projects, Scoped Out Loud
Composite scenarios drawn from the shape of typical small-office work — not client files. The scope, the dates and the price are how we’d actually write them.
Scenario 01 · Composite
The Law Office That Retired Its Passwords
A fourteen-person firm, Microsoft 365, and a partner who’d already been phished once. We enroll everyone on security keys and passkeys, switch off SMS codes, block legacy sign-in, and write a one-page “lost key” procedure the receptionist can follow.
Scope14 users, 1 Microsoft 365 tenant
CalendarTwo weeks, kickoff to handover
Fixed price$2,350 + keys at cost
Scenario 02 · Composite
The Renewal Form Nobody Wanted To Sign
A design studio gets a cyber-insurance questionnaire with forty-odd yes/no questions. We go line by line, test each answer against what’s really configured, fix the cheap gaps, and hand back an evidence folder — so “yes” means yes.
ScopeOne questionnaire, one tenant
CalendarFive working days
Fixed price$985
What it costs
A Number, In Writing, Before We Start
01
Scope comes first
One page: what we’ll do, what we won’t, the dates, and the price at the bottom.
$985
Our smallest engagement — the cyber-insurance readiness audit. The invoice says $985 and that is what you pay.
02
Nothing renews itself
When the project ends, the billing ends. No auto-renewing subscription hiding in the paperwork.
The four engagements
Pick The Door You’re Worried About
01 — IDENTITY
Phishing-Resistant MFA Rollout
Security keys and passkeys for everyone, SMS and app-code fallbacks removed, a recovery path written down.
You tell us what keeps you up. We tell you honestly which engagement fits — or that none do.
2Within 2 business days
The scope
A one-page document with deliverables, dates, and a price. You sign, or you walk.

The work
Done on the dates we wrote down. If scope changes, we stop and re-price first.
4Handover day
The handover
Plain-English documents, a walkthrough for your team, and every credential back in your hands.
5On handover
The invoice
Half at kickoff, half at handover. ACH, check or card. Then we’re done.

Questions Owners Ask Us First
What if the scope grows halfway through?
We stop, write a change order with its own price, and wait for your yes. The final invoice never exceeds the number you signed.
Do you do monthly monitoring?
No. We build the lock and hand you the key. If you want someone watching the door, we’ll tell you what to ask them and what a fair quote looks like.
Will this satisfy my insurer?
We map your setup to the questions on your renewal and tell you plainly which answers are yes and which are not yet. The underwriter decides; you stop guessing.
How do I pay?
One invoice per project: half at kickoff, half at handover, by ACH, check or card.
