Expert-Led Security. Compliance-Driven Coverage. Human + AI, Always On.
Security and compliance require more than software. USX Cyber delivers two expert-led service disciplines — OverWatch™ SOC-as-a-Service for continuous managed detection and response, and Compliance Advisory for framework-aligned guidance and audit readiness. One partner. Both covered.
Two Disciplines. One Trusted Partner.
Whether you need eyes-on-glass SOC coverage, expert compliance guidance, or both — USX Cyber delivers through two fully integrated service practices built on the GUARDIENT® platform.
Managed Detection, Response & Threat Intelligence
A 24/7 U.S.-based Security Operations Center staffed by expert analysts — backed by GUARDIENT® XDR automation. We monitor every endpoint, cloud environment, and network layer so your team can focus on what's next, not what's burning.
Explore OverWatch →Framework Alignment, Audit Readiness & Ongoing Compliance
Expert-led compliance guidance across CMMC, SOC 2, HIPAA, NIST 800-171, and more. From gap assessments to audit preparation, we combine strategic advisory with GUARDIENT®'s built-in GRC capabilities to keep you continuously compliant.
Explore Advisory →Managed Detection & Response, Built for the Threats That Matter
OverWatch delivers continuous monitoring, expert-led incident response, and compliance-mapped coverage — from a U.S.-based SOC that never goes offline. Every alert enriched. Every real threat escalated. Every response documented.
Real-Time Threat Detection
GUARDIENT® XDR ingests telemetry from every layer of your environment. Our analysts review what the platform flags — so only real threats reach your team, with zero alert fatigue.
Expert Analyst Coverage
U.S.-based cybersecurity professionals staff our SOC around the clock. No outsourced analysts. No overnight gaps. Expert eyes on every escalated alert, every shift.
Automated Incident Response
GUARDIENT®'s SOAR engine contains and isolates threats before they spread — while our analysts focus on advanced threats that demand human judgment and coordination.
Compliance-Mapped Monitoring
Every alert investigated, every action taken, every response documented in alignment with CMMC, SOC 2, NIST, and HIPAA. Audit evidence — generated automatically, continuously.
Why OverWatch Stands Apart
🔗 Tight GUARDIENT® XDR Integration
Our SOC is purpose-built on GUARDIENT® — not bolted onto a third-party platform. Tier 1 triage is automated, so our analysts spend their time on the threats that genuinely require human expertise and decisive action.
🤝 Fully Managed or Co-Managed
Need a fully staffed SOC? Or want our team to augment your existing security function? OverWatch adapts to both models — with the same coverage, the same expertise, and the same SLAs regardless of engagement type.
🧠 Human Ingenuity Where It Counts
GUARDIENT® handles automation. Our analysts step in when advanced threats require judgment, context, and experience. We never substitute automation for the analyst — we use both, where each excels.
📋 Built for Compliance Frameworks
Every OverWatch investigation is documented in alignment with CMMC, SOC 2, NIST 800-171, and HIPAA. Traceable response records that satisfy real auditors — not just checkbox compliance.
White Glove Onboarding.
Signal-Only Operations. Real Outcomes.
We don't flood your inbox with noise. OverWatch runs on a five-phase lifecycle built to deliver real security outcomes — from day-one onboarding through continuous defense and strategic review.
Discovery & Tailored Design
We start by understanding your environment, your risk profile, and your compliance requirements — not from a template, but from a real discovery session. Every protection strategy is designed around your unique business.
Seamless Integration
Our engineers deploy GUARDIENT® into your existing environment — Windows, Linux, macOS, cloud, network. No rip-and-replace. No extended downtime. Most clients are fully onboarded within 48–72 hours.
Signal-Only Alerting
We enrich and correlate every event before it reaches your team. When we escalate, you already know it's real. No noise, no false positives — just validated threats that require action.
Collaborative Remediation
Every high-risk incident includes actionable remediation guidance — delivered by our analysts, or executed directly by our team with your authorization. We don't throw alerts over the fence.
Strategic Reporting & Refinement
Monthly threat reviews, quarterly business reporting, and always-on detection tuning. As your threat landscape and business evolve, OverWatch evolves with you.

Guidance That Goes Further Than the Checklist
Achieving compliance isn't just about filling out forms — it's about building a security posture that survives real audits, satisfies real customers, and doesn't collapse between assessments. USX Cyber's Compliance Advisory practice combines expert strategic guidance with the continuous enforcement power of GUARDIENT®'s built-in GRC engine.
Whether you're pursuing your first CMMC certification, preparing for a SOC 2 Type II audit, or maintaining HIPAA compliance across a complex environment — our advisory team maps your current state, closes your gaps, and keeps you continuously compliant.
Start with a Compliance Assessment →What Our Compliance Advisory Covers
From initial framework selection to sustained audit readiness, our advisory practice covers every phase of your compliance journey — with hands-on expert guidance at every step.
Framework Selection & Roadmapping
Not sure which frameworks apply to your business? We evaluate your industry, customer requirements, and regulatory environment — then build a prioritized compliance roadmap that makes sense for your stage of growth.
- → CMMC 2.0 scoping and level determination
- → SOC 2 Type I and Type II readiness
- → NIST 800-171 and CSF alignment
- → Multi-framework efficiency planning
Gap Assessments & Remediation Planning
Before you can close gaps, you have to know where they are. Our advisors conduct structured gap assessments against your target frameworks — then build a prioritized remediation plan with clear ownership and timelines.
- → Control-by-control current state review
- → Risk-ranked gap identification
- → Remediation task tracking inside GUARDIENT®
- → Resource and timeline planning
Audit Preparation & Evidence Support
Audit season shouldn't be a scramble. We prepare your team and your documentation ahead of time — so when an assessor arrives, your evidence is already organized, mapped, and complete.
- → Pre-audit mock assessment and dry run
- → Evidence collection and packaging
- → Policy and procedure documentation review
- → Assessor liaison and Q&A support
Ongoing Compliance Management
Compliance isn't a one-time project — it's a continuous state. GUARDIENT®'s GRC engine enforces your controls in real time while our advisors monitor drift, manage changes, and keep you audit-ready between certifications.
- → Continuous control monitoring in GUARDIENT®
- → Drift detection and remediation alerts
- → Quarterly compliance posture reviews
- → Change management advisory support
Advisory Expertise Meets Platform Enforcement
Most compliance consultants hand you a report and leave. We stay. Our advisory practice is backed by the GUARDIENT® platform — so the recommendations we make are continuously enforced, not just documented and forgotten.
Strategy Backed by Real Controls
Every advisory recommendation is mapped to a specific control in GUARDIENT® — so your compliance posture improves the moment we advise, not months later when you implement.
Continuous Evidence, No Manual Collection
GUARDIENT® auto-generates audit-ready evidence for every monitored control — eliminating the manual evidence scramble that delays most audits and creates compliance drift.
One Partner for Security and Compliance
When your SOC and your compliance advisory team are the same organization, there's no gap between incident response and audit documentation. OverWatch and Compliance Advisory are built to work together.
Choose the Engagement That Fits Your Business
OverWatch and Compliance Advisory are available independently or as a bundled package — giving you the flexibility to engage where you need expert support most.
