Federal-grade protection, built for how construction actually runs — multiple sites, dozens of subcontractors, and large payments moving through every project. One accountable partner for the whole security posture.
You hold valuable project data, coordinate dozens of subcontractors on every job, and move large sums through progress draws and holdbacks — exactly the combination attackers are built to exploit. No dedicated security team is watching the inbox at 2am.
Connected telematics, HVAC and building management controllers, access control systems, autonomous and remote-controlled site equipment — job sites now run on operational technology (OT) as much as IT. A compromised sensor or controller is often a straight line into your office network. We bring genuine cross-domain experience in both, not just an IT lens applied to a construction client.
Every engagement led by a CISSP-certified professional with 19+ years defending federal systems — across both IT and operational technology (OT) — never junior staff.
HVAC, mechanical, geotechnical, civil, and structural firms, 20–250 employees. We see where your office systems, site equipment, and building controls actually connect — not generic IT advice.
Security that fits site crews, mobile devices, and subcontractor access without adding friction to billable work.
Clear deliverables, consistent reporting, a dedicated team you can actually reach.
Canadian construction and engineering SMBs are heavily targeted and rarely protected. They run lean IT, hold valuable project data, and move large sums through project invoicing — all without a security team behind them. I've seen the damage firsthand: business email compromise, DNS hijacking, phishing aimed at people with no one to catch it. HytndSec gives these firms enterprise-grade defense without the enterprise price tag or complexity.
Every engagement follows the same standard, whether it's your first month or your third year with us.
A free 30-minute call, followed by a clear, specific picture of where your firm is actually exposed — no jargon, no scare tactics.
A practical, prioritized plan built around your actual risk — progress draws, subcontractor access, connected site equipment — not a generic checklist.
MDR, MFA, backups, policies, and training rolled out in an order that fixes your biggest exposure first, without disrupting active projects.
Consistent reporting, a dedicated team you can actually reach, and a security posture that scales as your firm takes on more projects.
HytndSec transformed cybersecurity from a distraction to a strategic advantage for a geotechnical engineering firm, delivering vCISO leadership and a managed stack that protects sensitive project data while meeting compliance demands.
A business email compromise gave an attacker a foothold in the company's mailbox and a path to customer and supplier payments. HytndSec ran the incident response end to end: contained the account, enforced MFA company-wide, notified affected recipients, and rebuilt email authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC) so the domain couldn't be spoofed again. Quoting, dispatch, and billing never stopped.
A security incident threatened the brokerage's online presence, their reputation, and the trust their clients place in them. HytndSec ran it from first alert to closure: contained the exposure, restored control of their infrastructure, coordinated with third-party providers, and delivered a full incident report — then hardened their email security and handed over a posture roadmap so the next attempt doesn't land.
