SVD Solutions

SVD Solutions is a consulting firm that has been selling intelligence-driven cybersecurity and information assurance work to people who cannot afford to be wrong: senior executives at U.S. federal agencies, defense and intelligence organizations, and commercial enterprises including financial regulation (SEC) and tax and revenue (IRS) contexts. Founded in 2011 and based in the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Area, it has supported more than 40 organizations. The threat model it works in is institutional rather than theatrical - mission-critical systems, regulated data, and decision makers who need numbers they can act on.

The practice is built around security strategy grounded in metrics-based data, governance, risk and compliance, Zero Trust architecture, enterprise architecture and cyber visibility, and organizational transformation with embedded security leadership. The claim is specific: strategy should be measurable and actionable, not a slide deck. Practitioners work compliance and authorization frameworks including CMMC Level 2, NIST RMF, NIST SP 800-53, NIST SP 800-171, FISMA, DIACAP, FedRAMP, and Zero Trust reference architectures.

Day to day, that means engagement work at the intersection of architecture and governance - mapping enterprise estates for visibility, driving Zero Trust from strategy into implementation, and sitting inside client leadership structures as embedded security leadership rather than as outside auditors. Cleared personnel are available for classified and sensitive engagements. The stated goal is enabling client organizations to hit critical business goals; the operating style is advisory, data-forward, and oriented to executives who have to justify decisions to oversight bodies.
