Your one-stop shop for
cybersecurity
Small businesses, fast-growing startups, and large enterprises. MZLA builds security programs from the ground up, plugs in as a Subject Matter Expert in complex environments, and works at a depth that holds up in production, not just on paper.
What MZLA Does
Core work spans EDR, SIEM, vulnerability management, AWS security, IAM, and SOC 2, plus the operational and IT support work that keeps a security program running day to day.
Endpoint Detection & Response
EDR deployment, policy management, and operations from startup scale to global enterprise.
- CrowdStrike Falcon and Carbon Black across endpoint fleets of all sizes
- Policy design, sensor rollout, updates, and prevention configuration
- Escalations, investigations, exposure management, and engineer training
- SME-level ownership inside large, multi-business-unit environments
SIEM & Detection Engineering
CrowdStrike NG SIEM and LogScale built and run in production, not slideware.
- Full platform deployments at fast-growing companies; operations at enterprise scale
- Log ingestion from AWS, GCP, SaaS, identity, AppSec, and endpoint sources
- Custom parsers, IOA/IOC rules, dashboards, and Slack-based alerting workflows
- Detection coverage for cloud, identity, endpoint, and platform audit activity
Vulnerability Management
Vuln programs built from the ground up, not bolted onto an existing stack.
- Product discovery, evaluation, and procurement aligned to your environment
- Agent deployment across endpoints, servers, and cloud assets
- Scanning, prioritization, and remediation workflows at scale
- Autonomous patching and remediation programs across mixed infrastructure
Cloud Security (AWS)
AWS security architecture, logging, identity, and posture for multi-account environments.
- CloudTrail, VPC Flow Logs, WAF, GuardDuty, Config, and related log pipelines into SIEM
- Multi-account IAM, permission sets, and least-privilege access design
- Data classification, encryption standards, and network exposure controls
- Cloud security program work from first AWS account through mature org structures
Identity & Access Management
Identity programs that cover how people actually get access, not just a policy doc.
- MFA rollout, SSO, SCIM provisioning, and automated onboarding/offboarding
- RBAC design, access reviews, and least-privilege restructuring
- Directory and identity tooling across cloud and SaaS application stacks
- IAM work tied to compliance, operations, and cost control
SOC 2 & Compliance
Compliance programs owned end to end, from nothing on paper to audit-ready.
- SOC 2 program build from zero: controls, policies, tooling, and evidence
- Gap remediation for teams partway through a certification effort
- Audit preparation, auditor coordination, and renewal support
- Ongoing compliance monitoring and program ownership after certification
Operations, Support & Everything In Between
Most companies need more than a one-time project. MZLA handles the ongoing IT and security work that keeps your team moving, your systems hardened, and your customers confident.
- Basic IT support and troubleshooting when something breaks
- Hardening servers, endpoints, and internal systems to a secure baseline
- User account lifecycle: provisioning, deprovisioning, and password or credential rotation
- Device setup, MDM enrollment, patching, and secure baseline configs for new hires
- SaaS administration across Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, and business apps
- Email security, phishing protection, and security awareness program coordination
- Backup, disaster recovery, and business continuity planning
- Network, firewall, VPN, and remote access configuration
- Asset inventory, software tracking, and vendor or third-party risk reviews
- Policy development, runbooks, and documentation your team can actually use
- Incident response planning, playbooks, and tabletop exercises
- Fractional security leadership, audit support, and customer security questionnaire responses
How MZLA Works
Security consulting and contract engineering for teams that need senior help, not a deck of recommendations.
MZLA is built around hands-on security work. Consulting covers strategy and roadmaps. Contract engineering covers implementation: tooling, controls, detection, policies, and the operational work that keeps it running.
No subcontracting and no handoffs to someone you haven't spoken to. Most engagements are remote; on-site is available when a project calls for it.
Typical engagements
- Greenfield security programs at startups
- SME work inside large, multi-business-unit environments
- SOC 2 build, gap remediation, and audit prep
- SIEM, EDR, and detection engineering deployments
- Fractional security leadership and ongoing operations
- Project-based work or longer-term support

Frequently Asked Questions
Practical questions that come up before an engagement starts.
Yes. If you're up against a deadline, say that on the call. MZLA can map a realistic path from wherever you're starting, including audit prep and staying on through the audit itself.
Engagements start with a gap analysis against what you already have. The roadmap covers only what's missing. You won't pay to redo work that's already done.
It depends on scope. MZLA doesn't publish fixed rates. After a free consultation, you get a written quote with scope, timeline, and deliverables before anything starts.
It depends on your starting point. A readiness assessment is usually 4 to 6 weeks. Full implementation is often 3 to 6 months. If controls are already in place, it can go faster. You'll get a realistic timeline on the first call.
Usually, yes. Most clients are in SaaS, fintech, healthcare, and tech, but the work isn't industry-specific. If you have a security or compliance need, reach out. Fit gets confirmed on the call.
Yes. MZLA works inside your stack, not a preferred-vendor list. CrowdStrike, Splunk, Tenable, AWS, JumpCloud, Secureframe, and plenty of others. If you're already paying for something, the goal is to make it work before ripping anything out.
