Industries We Protect
Enterprise-grade security built for mid-market organizations. White-label SOC for MSPs, HIPAA compliance for healthcare, and managed security across regulated industries.
Real Results from Real Organizations
See how we've helped organizations across industries achieve compliance, reduce risk, and strengthen their security posture.
Challenge
Mid-size healthcare organizations struggle to achieve HIPAA compliance while maintaining operations. Most don't know where to start with the 75+ required security controls.
Solution
Our structured HIPAA compliance program covers security risk assessment, policy framework development, staff training, and 24/7 SOC monitoring -- taking organizations from zero to audit-ready.
Results
"Our HIPAA program is built for organizations between 50–500 employees who need enterprise-grade compliance without the enterprise price tag. We scope every engagement before it begins."
Challenge
MSPs want to offer security services to retain clients and grow revenue, but hiring SOC analysts and building infrastructure costs $500K+ per year.
Solution
Our white-label SOC lets MSPs sell 24/7 security monitoring under their own brand. We handle the detection, response, and reporting. The MSP keeps the client relationship and earns recurring revenue.
Results
"MSP partners add 24/7 security monitoring to their portfolio under their own brand — we handle detection, response, and reporting. No analysts to hire, no infrastructure to build."
Challenge
Building an internal SOC requires minimum 5 analysts, SIEM licensing, and management overhead -- totaling $500K+ annually before you detect a single threat.
Solution
GuardsArm's SOC-as-a-service delivers continuous threat monitoring, incident detection, and response using detection logic built in Rust for memory-safe, high-performance analysis.
Results
"We built our detection platform in Rust — the same memory-safe language recommended by the White House for critical infrastructure — because we wanted performance without compromising reliability."
The Platforms Behind the Services
Our services run on tooling we build and operate ourselves — which means your monitoring and your compliance evidence live in platforms we can actually stand behind.
