Tony Asher

We know what it feels like trying to focus on the core of your business, confused by all the news of other companies being breached, basing your security program on ‘hope’ that you have the right security controls to prevent your data from being hacked.

Here’s why people choose Asher Security.

Tony fixed it.

 “I am usually very independent and confident, but when my computer was hacked, I felt completely helpless and frightened that everything I had worked hard for was being taken away in moments. Tony responded quickly and professionally. He identified every area of my system that had been compromised and immediately solved the problem. He explained what had happened and helped me get to a place where I could move forward feeling secure. When something out of my control was stripping me of my resources and privacy, Tony fixed it.

Tony is wonderful. As a small nonprofit we were experiencing some difficult security issues and he was a huge help. He is thoughtful, careful and honest. We really trusted him and he helped solve a problem! I would highly recommend him.

Secure Your Business

Expert implementation of the plan to protect against cyber threats.

At Asher Security we know you are the kind of person that values trust. You want your partners and clients to trust that your company is secure and protecting its data.

 

In order to be that way, you need to be diligent to assess your security posture, threat landscape, and qualify the impact to the unique data that’s at the core of your business. Then build a cybersecurity road map that builds on these truths to address how to properly protect against these risks. Then prioritize and execute of this plan without getting bogged down in the technical confusion. Stay focused, on track, and succeed.
 
You don’t want to be someone who’s just throwing money at technology security solution’s, hoping that these expenses will protect your business. We help businesses recover money that has been wasted on these wishful strategies.

The problem is external threat actors, and negligent employees compromise your ability to be secure and protect the sensitive and private data at the core of your business. In addition, compliance and regulatory requirements continue to add burden to the already overtaxed resources on your team. Deadlines are being set for your team to deliver security evidence for audits, and partners are demanding the completion of their security questionnaires.

We believe in freedom.

We believe that everyone has a right to privacy, including your business. We believe that the security to ensure that privacy should not have to be complicated or overly expensive. Every business has a responsibility to protect their data, even if they can’t afford a full-time security staff. We believe the ability to be secure should be easily made available to you.

We understand what it feels like trying to focus on the core of your business while being distracted by threats and properly trying to address risk.

That’s why we have dedicated our careers to helping people like you protect their business. We’ve seen the secrets being hacked and leaving the businesses that make up the fabric of this great United States of America.

Here’s how it works;

we start by performing our Rapid Risk Assessment. This process provides clarity over the exact threats and risks your specific business needs to address. Then we review the results with you and unify on your urgency and financial resources to successfully implement the plan. Based on your time and budget we build a cybersecurity road map. The plan includes key performance indicators and measurements that will allow you to continually measure the success of the program.
This plan is yours. You can execute it yourself, or you we can partner with you for the implementation. This is the part that is really exciting. We work together to secure your business. Everything we’ve worked so hard for finally starts to get implemented. The plan comes together and you’re able to show leadership with confidence that your cybersecurity program is maturing.
So, schedule a call with us today so you can stop worrying about security, being pressured by leadership, spending too much on technology solutions, wasting time on the phone with vendors, partners, and the compliance department.
 
Start having peace and confident your security program is appropriate for your business, it’s approved by experts, and it’s being executed according to time and budget.

Questions & Concerns

Can you guarantee my business will be secure?

No. But I can guarantee that after working with Asher Security and implementing the specific cybersecurity road map we plan for you that your security will meet or exceed industry baselines, and your peer groups. I guarantee you will be harder to hack, your employees will be more security aware, and your data more difficult to exfiltrate. So that if you are ever hacked, it won’t really bother you. You will feel great that you did the most right thing, performed due diligence, performed a risk assessment, and partnered with security experts. That anything more would mean you were overspending on risk, that you were overextending the security program to be bigger and more complicated than it should have been, and those costs, of that security program, would have outweighed the impact of a hacker breach.
 
We tell our clients, and board members often, that the difference between a mature and immature cybersecurity program is not if you get hacked or not. It’s your preparedness.
 
That’s why one of programs we help our clients develop is an Incident Response and Handling plan. This plan prepares for these specific events. The results are our clients that have this plan, detect malicious activity much earlier, they have faster response times, reduced containment times, and are able to exponentially reduce the data records impacted by a malicious hacker attempt.

I need this now. This plan is going to take too long.

The best time to plant a tree was thirty years ago. the next best time is today. Maturing a cybersecurity program takes time. With that said, sometimes there is an immediate pressure and need our clients have that can be prioritized. We are here to serve our clients the best we can, and if there is something you need, we invite you to share that with us to see what we can do to help.

Every sprint of progress will move your success forward. Everything we build together will remain and last throughout your program. You’ll be making continual progress along the way. The way our simple program is build prevents back sliding and degradation of security controls.

It's too expensive. We don't have the budget for security.

No one has a security budget. If you want one, start with inviting us to help you. Our rapid risk assessment will identify the unique and specific risks your business is facing. When you share these results with leadership, they have clarity on the budget required to reduce risk to an acceptable level. If they decide not proceed, that means they have accepted the risk. That is a perfectly acceptable way to handle risk. You have successfully performed your duty in measuring and communicating risk. Due diligence has been completed.

Security does cost too much. It’s the unfortunate truth. It would be nice if no one was trying to hack into your assets and if all employees read and followed policy. Unfortunately, that’s not the world we currently live in. The cost of security is quickly becoming much more attractive than the regulatory fines, civil penalties, breach recovery costs, and professional legal services required post breach, after not dealing with security proactively.

If you decide security is valuable, I absolutely believe there isn’t currently a better choose than Asher Security. when you combine professional experience of; industry certifications, publications, along with the character values of; transparency, honesty, and authenticity, with a capstone of service and affordably.

What if this doesn't work for me?

At any time, if you’re not fully satisfied and confident about the cybersecurity strides we’re making to improve the maturity of your program, we will joyfully leave you with everything that has been created up to this point (policies, process documents, program management guides, classification program, road-maps, unique correlation alerts, reports, and presentations). It’s all yours too keep and support your program.

I never want to serve a client that doesn’t find tremendous value in our relationship. To me, wealth equals relationships.

Our cybersecurity program development is built on decades of experience with federal defense programs, world-wide financial programs, nationwide retail programs. The model of these enterprise programs has been designed and optimized into a micro-sized framework that can fit your business.
