The questions we hear most often.

Operational Security Intelligence is how Simple Plan IT describes its work: seeing what is exposed about your business, verifying whether it is a real threat, and responding before it does damage. It is the difference between owning security tools and actually knowing what is happening in your environment and acting on it. The promise is simple: See. Verify. Respond.

Simple Plan IT offers the Exposure Snapshot (a free look at your dark web and breach exposure), the Shadow Network Assessment (inside-out offensive security testing), Managed Overwatch Security (24/7/365 US-based monitoring and response), Simple Security (turnkey protection for small business), and Managed GRC (full-service compliance for SOC 2, CMMC Level 2, GLBA, and HIPAA).

The fastest starting point is the free Exposure Snapshot. You enter your domain and see what a criminal can already find about your company: breached credentials, discoverable systems, and leadership exposure. From there, a 30-minute risk call is usually enough to give you a clear picture and a specific recommendation. There is no obligation and no pressure to buy on the call.

The Shadow Network Assessment is an inside-out assessment. We ship a small device to your location, you plug it into your network, and our engineers gain the same inside access a criminal would have after bypassing your perimeter. We use real criminal techniques, and every finding comes with documented evidence of what we accessed and how. It is built to show what happens after someone is already inside, not just whether your perimeter holds.

Every company that has been breached had security tools. Tools alert, but they do not investigate, and they do not act on their own. The average breach goes undetected for around 197 days because a valid login does not look like an attack; it looks like work. Managed Overwatch Security puts US-based engineers on your environment around the clock, so the activity that does not belong gets investigated in minutes, not months.

Managed GRC covers SOC 2, CMMC Level 2, GLBA, and HIPAA. We write the policies, gather the evidence, and support you through the audit. We prepare you to be assessment-ready; we do not conduct the assessment itself or guarantee an outcome, and we refer legal determinations to your counsel.

Yes. Simple Security is built for small businesses without an IT team or a security budget. It is enterprise-level protection, fully managed by our US-based team, sized for where you are. It is not a downgrade; as you grow, you can move to the full Managed Overwatch program and your team, baseline, and history carry forward.
