Managed IT, Cybersecurity & Compliance Services in Dallas, Texas

Armorstack operates as a service-area provider in Dallas and dispatches engineers across Dallas County, Collin County, Denton County, Tarrant County, and the broader DFW Metroplex for scheduled and emergency on-site work, with target response of 4 hours during business hours and 8 hours overnight. Our 24/7 SOC monitoring and vCISO/vCIO engagements are delivered with no geographic gap and full Central Time alignment for end-of-day financial reconciliation cycles. Reach our DFW desk at 877-890-5508.

For an active incident with a service retainer in place, our incident response team is engaged within 30 minutes via SOC and on-site within 4-8 hours depending on time of day. We coordinate directly with the FBI Dallas Field Office at 1801 N. Lamar Blvd, the Texas Department of Public Safety Cybercrime Unit, and — for healthcare incidents — the Texas Department of State Health Services. We file Texas Attorney General data-breach notifications within the 30-day deadline triggered when 250 or more Texans are affected, and we coordinate with TDI when insurance-licensee notification is required under Texas Insurance Code Chapter 601.

We do not represent those institutions, but our team has extensive HIPAA, Texas HB 300, Epic, and Cerner / Oracle Health experience and works with their suppliers, specialty vendors, business associates, and adjacent providers. Our healthcare practice is built around the workflows and compliance frameworks Tier-1 Dallas academic medical centers and health systems impose on partners and downstream covered entities. We are positioned for the business associate agreement structure that AMC supply chains require.

Yes. TDPSA became effective July 1, 2024 and is enforced exclusively by the Texas Attorney General with civil penalties up to $7,500 per violation after a 30-day cure period. We help Dallas mid-market firms map TDPSA controller and processor obligations, consumer rights workflows (access, deletion, correction, opt-out of sale and targeted advertising), data protection assessments, and the small-business carve-out (defined under the federal Small Business Act). TDPSA layers on top of existing federal frameworks; our practice integrates it into your NIST CSF 2.0 program rather than treating it as a stand-alone effort.

Yes. The DFW Metroplex hosts one of the deepest financial-services concentrations in the country — Bank of America Plaza, JPMorgan Chase Plano, Charles Schwab Westlake, Comerica’s Dallas headquarters, Wells Fargo’s Phase II tower, and a deep bench of regional banks, broker-dealers, and credit unions on what Dallas calls the “Y’all Street” corridor. Our VERITY portfolio delivers FFIEC IT Examination Handbook readiness, GLBA Safeguards Rule implementation, SR 11-7 model-risk governance for AI / quantitative models, PCI-DSS for card environments, SOX IT general controls, and Texas Department of Banking examination preparation. SOC monitoring is engineered for FFIEC examiner scrutiny.

Armorstack delivers CMMC Level 1 and Level 2 implementation and assessor coordination for Defense Industrial Base contractors across the DFW Metroplex, including the Tier-1, Tier-2, and Tier-3 supplier base around Lockheed Martin Aeronautics (Fort Worth — F-35 production), Bell Textron (Fort Worth), Raytheon Technologies (McKinney / Plano), and the broader DFW aerospace and electronics defense cluster. Our VERITY portfolio includes a credentialed CMMC practice that has prepared clients for first-attempt Level 2 certification. We coordinate with C3PAOs to deliver assessment-ready environments. Call 877-890-5508 to scope a CMMC engagement.

Managed IT engagements for 100-500 employee Dallas firms typically run $9,000-$35,000 per month depending on scope. vCISO and VERITY Compass retainers add $3,500-$12,000 per month. SOC monitoring is priced per asset. Most clients start with a fixed-fee assessment under $20,000 to establish scope before committing to ongoing services. Many Dallas firms begin with our 90-day no-contract assessment.

Yes. Our CITADEL portfolio integrates access control, video surveillance, fire alarm monitoring, and low-voltage infrastructure with cybersecurity monitoring across DFW office towers, healthcare campuses, data centers, and industrial sites. We work with NDAA Section 889-compliant equipment for federal-adjacent and defense-supplier Dallas engagements. Site surveys for downtown Dallas, Plano, Frisco, Irving, and the broader Metroplex are scheduled within 5 business days. Call 877-890-5508 to schedule.

Dallas’s financial services, healthcare, telecommunications, and energy sectors are deploying AI faster than most security programs can govern them. Bank of America, JPMorgan, AT&T, UT Southwestern, and ExxonMobil are all shipping AI features into regulated workflows. Armorstack’s SENTRY portfolio detects shadow AI, monitors prompt-injection patterns, and integrates AI risk reporting into your existing NIST CSF or NIST AI RMF program. A Shadow AI Discovery typically completes within 5-10 business days and surfaces unsanctioned ChatGPT, Copilot, Claude, and embedded SaaS-AI usage across your environment.

We work with engagements subject to the Texas Department of Insurance (TDI) — including Texas Insurance Code Chapter 601 / NAIC Insurance Data Security Model Law examinations — the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC), Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS), Texas Department of Banking, the Texas Attorney General (consumer protection / Identity Theft Enforcement and Protection Act / TDPSA enforcement), Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR), Texas Department of Public Safety, and Texas Railroad Commission for energy-sector clients. Federal frameworks (NIST, CMMC, HIPAA, GLBA, SOX, FFIEC) are our primary focus; Texas-specific rules are layered on top.

Yes. HB 300 expands the federal HIPAA covered entity definition to any entity that creates, receives, maintains, or transmits PHI in Texas — including business associates, schools, governmental units, and information-management vendors. Our HB 300 practice covers the 90-day employee training requirement, 15-business-day patient record access for EHR-using providers, restrictions on PHI sale, and electronic-disclosure authorization workflows. We integrate HB 300 controls with HIPAA Security Rule, HITECH, and Texas Identity Theft Enforcement and Protection Act notification under a single compliance program rather than parallel tracks.

Schedule a 30-minute discovery call at armorstack.ai/contact/ or call 877-890-5508. The call is candid scoping — no pitch deck. If we agree there is a fit, the typical first engagement is a fixed-fee assessment with a defined deliverable in 4-6 weeks before any monthly retainer commitment. Many Dallas firms start with our 90-day no-contract assessment.
