Authorized scope only
We work inside the agreed boundary, documented before any inspection begins. Nothing outside scope.
About
Built from the shop floor. Focused on your security.
Wendell Powell Jr. built this practice from the shop floor — where he watched firsthand how small businesses run critical operations on tools nobody ever checks for security weaknesses.
Mission
Small businesses deserve real security analysis, not checkbox compliance.
Most small business security advice is written for large enterprises. We built this practice to give small business owners — repair shops, manufacturers, service providers — a practical, no-jargon path to understanding and reducing their actual exposure.
Principles
How we work.
No scare tactics
Findings are rated by actual business impact. We do not inflate severity to justify a larger engagement.
Plain-English deliverables
Every finding is explained in terms a business owner can act on — not a technical report that sits unread.
Your data stays yours
We do not retain, share, or commercialize anything discovered during an engagement.
What We Won't Do
Clear limits.
- × Perform unauthorized access or testing outside the agreed scope
- × Use findings from your business to inform work for other clients
- × Make absolute claims about security — no environment is immune
- × Recommend tools we have undisclosed financial relationships with
- × Use alarm language to manufacture urgency that benefits us, not you
Work with someone who understands your environment.
