Our services follow the USX Cyber Delivery Framework from first survey to standing operations: discovery, scoping, and security architecture up front; OverWatch SOC-as-a-Service running the program 24/7; and Compliance Consulting keeping governance and evidence continuous. The engineers who design your boundary are the team that operates it.
We don't sell services à la carte and hope they add up to a program. Every engagement moves through the USX Cyber Delivery Framework , engineering first, technology second, operations continuous.
Our engineers map your environment, contracts, and data flows, then determine what's in scope, what's out, and where the regulatory boundary should sit. Risk assessments and scope rationale are delivered in writing before any technology decision is made.
With the boundary defined, we design the program: segmentation and enclave strategy, identity and access design, control placement mapped to NIST 800-171, NIST 800-53, or the frameworks that govern you. The architecture dictates the tooling, never the reverse.
We build what the design specifies, hardening, segmentation, control deployment, and stand up GUARDIENT® as the operational layer, aligned to the exact control set the architecture defined. Most environments are fully onboarded within days, not months.
The program goes live under continuous monitoring: a U.S.-based SOC executing detection, investigation, and response around the clock, mapped to your control set so operations and obligations never drift apart. Explore OverWatch below →
Our compliance consultants maintain the governance layer, SSPs, POA&Ms, policies, risk management, while GUARDIENT® generates framework-mapped evidence from daily operations. Audit readiness becomes a standing condition, not a seasonal project. Explore Compliance Consulting below →
Once a program is engineered and implemented, two practices carry it forward continuously. 24/7 security operations and compliance governance, both running on the GUARDIENT® platform, both delivered by the team that designed your program.
A 24/7 U.S.-based Security Operations Center staffed by expert analysts, backed by GUARDIENT® XDR automation. Your environment is monitored by the organization that engineered its boundary, so detection, response, and escalation follow the program design rather than a generic playbook.
Explore OverWatch →Expert-led compliance consulting across CMMC, NIST 800-171, SOC 2, HIPAA, and more. From scoping and gap assessment through SSPs, POA&Ms, and assessment support, our consultants govern the program while GUARDIENT®'s GRC engine keeps the evidence, and your posture, continuously current.
Explore Advisory →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.
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.
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.
GUARDIENT®'s SOAR engine contains and isolates threats before they spread, while our analysts focus on advanced threats that demand human judgment and coordination.
Every alert investigated, every action taken, every response documented in alignment with CMMC, SOC 2, NIST, and HIPAA. Audit evidence, generated automatically, continuously.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Monthly threat reviews, quarterly business reporting, and always-on detection tuning. As your threat landscape and business evolve, OverWatch evolves with you.
Why more organizations choose OverWatch over the cost, complexity, and coverage gaps of an internal SOC.
Predictable pricing, rapid deployment, and expert coverage, all while scaling seamlessly with your business and compliance requirements.
High overhead, long deployment timelines, and continuous staffing challenges, all while increasing risk exposure and slowing your team down.
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 →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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
GUARDIENT® auto-generates audit-ready evidence for every monitored control, eliminating the manual evidence scramble that delays most audits and creates compliance drift.
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.
"A compliance report without continuous enforcement is a photograph of a moment that's already passed."
Traditional compliance advisory gives you a snapshot. GUARDIENT® gives you a live view, continuously monitoring whether your controls are actually in place, and alerting when they drift.
Every engagement ends in the same outcome: an operation that runs and a framework you pass. Not everyone needs both halves on day one, and every rate below is published on our pricing page so you can check it yourself.
The 24/7 operation without the compliance program. XDR, our U.S.-based SOC, SIEM, and vulnerability management, with the evidence collecting from day one so a future framework is not a standing start.
The delivered compliance program without moving your security provider. We scope, write the SSP and POA&M, tailor the policies, and sit with your assessor, mapping and evidencing what your current provider produces.
Nothing here is required and nothing is billed by surprise. Each is published, scoped in advance, and available on any package, including the penetration test we deliberately keep out of every bundle.
Both halves as one system, where the security operation produces the compliance evidence. We run the whole program, from scoping through the finding letter, and it keeps running after the audit.
Stop assembling a program from disconnected vendors and hoping the seams hold. Let our engineers map your environment and show you what the full delivery lifecycle, from scoping to 24/7 operations, looks like for your organization.
A focused session with our services team, we'll map your current environment, identify security and compliance gaps, and show you exactly what we'd do differently.
