About

Built from the vendor side of the table.

Big enterprises get dedicated engineers from their security vendors. Everyone else gets a support ticket. We started Bold City Cyber in Jacksonville in 2024 to close that gap for growing companies and the partners who serve them.

How we’re different

Four things we never compromise on.

01

Independent

No vendor affiliation and no license reselling. Advice follows your environment, not a quota.

02

Built to last

Changes are written as code and documented, so they survive staff turnover and the next audit.

03

Plain English

Reports written for the people making decisions, not just the engineers.

04

Straight pricing

You know the price before work starts, and monthly plans never lock you in.

How we work

You always know what’s being worked on.

Experience behind the work

A decade of experience, from every side of security.

More than a decade across cybersecurity and cloud, from every angle: inside security vendors, inside the companies that buy from them, and hands-on in the cloud environments that tie it all together.

We’ve deployed and tuned enterprise security platforms, built and hardened cloud infrastructure, led security programs, and guided organizations through demanding audits. That range is why we can see how the pieces fit together, and where they break.
