TDPSA layers on top of existing federal frameworks (CMMC, FAA, FRA, HIPAA) and our practice integrates it into your overall NIST CSF 2.0 program.

Managed IT engagements for 100-500 employee Fort Worth firms typically run $9,000-$35,000 per month depending on scope. CMMC-scoped F-35 / Bell supplier environments range higher because of the additional CUI-handling and clearance-aware engineering hours. 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. Many Fort Worth firms begin with our 90-day no-contract assessment.
