Enterprise-grade security thinking, built for the SMB.
E5 Consulting Group helps small and mid-sized businesses make confident, well-governed decisions about technology and risk — without an enterprise budget or an internal security team.
Sample Security Posture Snapshot
What a first-pass risk assessment surfaces
Illustrative example — your assessment will reflect your environment.
Built for businesses that need security built into the way they operate — not bolted on after an incident.
Six ways we reduce your risk & raise your readiness.
Each engagement is scoped to your size and risk profile — practical guidance, not shelfware.
Strategic IT
Technology roadmaps that align infrastructure and tooling decisions with where your business is actually headed.
Cybersecurity Advisory
Fractional, executive-level security guidance — the strategic counsel of a CISO, sized to fit an SMB.
Education & Awareness
Training that turns employees into your first line of defense, not your biggest vulnerability.
Risk Assessments
A clear, prioritized picture of where you're exposed — and what to fix first — in language leadership can act on.
Incident Response Planning
A tested playbook so the worst day is a managed event, not a scramble — built and rehearsed before you need it.
Governance
Policies, frameworks, and oversight structures that hold up under audit, insurance review, or customer scrutiny.
A five-stage engagement model.
The same disciplined approach behind every engagement, scaled to the size of the problem.
Discover
Understand your business, environment, and what's actually at stake.
Assess
Evaluate risk, controls, and gaps against a practical standard.
Plan
Prioritize findings into a roadmap you can resource and defend.
Execute
Implement policy, process, and technical changes alongside your team.
Sustain
Ongoing advisory so governance and readiness don't quietly lapse.
Senior expertise, without the enterprise overhead.
SMBs face the same threats as large enterprises, but rarely have the same internal resources to address them. E5 Consulting Group exists to close that gap — bringing seasoned, practitioner-level cybersecurity and IT leadership directly to businesses that need it most.
Built for SMB reality
Recommendations sized to your team, budget, and operating constraints — not a generic enterprise framework.
Independent & vendor-neutral
Guidance driven by your risk profile, not a product line. We work for you, not a vendor's quota.
Plain-language reporting
Findings and roadmaps written for owners and leadership, not just an IT department.
Built on real-world practice
Decades of hands-on IT and cybersecurity consulting experience inform every recommendation.
