Read the blog →You do not have a security team and you do not need one. traztech gives small businesses a right-sized program, a contract to point insurers and customers to, and no enterprise overhead.
Small businesses face the same threats as large ones with none of the staff. The pressure usually comes from insurers, larger customers, or an incident.
Insurers now require MFA, backups, endpoint protection, and an incident plan before they will write or renew a policy.
A bigger client sends a vendor security review and you have nothing documented to send back.
Security falls to whoever runs IT, or to no one, until something breaks.
You need the essentials done well, not a program built for a 500-person company.
We focus on the controls that actually move risk and the documentation that satisfies insurers and customers.
Part-time security ownership scoped to a small business, with the documentation insurers and customers ask for.
Fractional CISOMFA, backups, endpoint protection, and a written program that meets insurer and customer expectations.
Security & ComplianceA named responder on contract, which is often cheaper than building anything internal.
IR RetainerLeast privilege, backups, and resilience for the systems you actually run.
Cloud Securitytraztech is run by a published security researcher with five published CVEs, including CVE-2024-45163 (CVSS 9.1), the kill-switch for the Mirai botnet. We right-size the program to your business rather than selling you enterprise overhead, and you get a named expert on a contract you can budget.
See the full research and CVE record, or read how we work with our partners. Once you are engaged, our auditor management & advocacy and vulnerability management services keep the program moving, tracked through your existing traztech Workspace.
Yes, but a right-sized one. Attackers automate, so small businesses are targeted constantly, and insurers and larger customers now require evidence of basic controls.
Typically multi-factor authentication, tested backups, endpoint protection, and a documented incident response plan. We build to those requirements so renewals go smoothly.
Often not. SOC 2 makes sense once enterprise customers require it. Many small businesses are better served by a strong baseline program and clear documentation. Our compliance framework finder helps you decide.
A fractional CISO gives you part-time, named security ownership scoped to your budget, far below the cost of a full-time hire.
An incident response retainer puts named responders on contract with agreed response times, so a breach does not leave you scrambling alone.

Track record
We would rather show you the work than a wall of logos. Here is what is behind the advice.
Five published CVEs. CVE-2024-45163 (CVSS 9.1) is a flaw in the Mirai botnet itself, which gave defenders a way to shut down attacker infrastructure. CVE-2026-42626 takes HP ENVY 5000 printers offline from any unauthenticated device on the same network.
The printer is the one that matters on a compliance page: an asset nobody counts as a computer, on a flat network, downed by a device that never had to log in. Auditors ask how controls fail. We have found out first-hand.
At Humera, a venture-backed US security company, Jacob built the compliance programme in-house from nothing: no report, no policies, no documented controls. It ended in a Type II attestation with zero exceptions.
The platform stayed in production throughout, which is the part most readiness projects get wrong: controls are easy to design and hard to retrofit onto a system people already depend on.
For a Waterloo data centre operator we ran SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001:2022 together rather than one after the other, across a production campus, an AI compute platform and a self-hosted collaboration stack. Scoped so further Ontario and Quebec sites enter as they reach production. Findings delivered and remediated.
For an Ontario medtech company putting an AI clinical assistant in front of practitioners, we ran the gap analysis and built the evidence programme behind their SOC 2.
