About Security Medic

Advisory. Architectural. Governance-Focused.

Security Medic is a cybersecurity and privacy consulting firm built for organizations that carry real cyber risk but don't have — or don't yet need — a full-time security executive.

We work with regulated enterprises, public sector agencies, courts, managed service providers, and businesses at every stage of growth that face mounting pressure from:

  • • Compliance mandates and audit requirements
  • • Cyber insurance applications demanding documented controls
  • • Board and executive teams asking hard questions about risk
  • • Evolving threats that outpace internal IT capabilities
  • • Privacy regulations requiring structured program oversight

These are leadership problems, not technology problems. They require a cyber executive, not another tool.

That's what Security Medic provides.

We serve as your fractional CISO, fractional CTO, or program lead — embedded in your leadership team to deliver cybersecurity strategy, privacy program design, risk assessments, vendor oversight, policy and governance guidance, executive reporting, and program management. We architect and lead. We don't operate your platforms.

→Strategy and governance aligned to NIST CSF 2.0, the NIST Privacy Framework, and IIA Global Internal Audit Standards
→Vendor-neutral — we evaluate and oversee solutions, not sell them
→One accountable leader across cybersecurity, privacy, compliance, and internal audit
→Clear, actionable guidance — not 100-page reports

Our founder, Jim Venuto, has 35 years securing financial institutions, healthcare systems, manufacturers, and government agencies. His credentials include CISSP, CISM, CISA, CRISC, CCSP, and other certifications across security leadership, cloud, compliance, and risk (30+ active certifications available on request).
