The Latest Insights
Security and Compliance Leadership
We provide leadership and support teams to advance your security and compliance objectives at a fraction of the cost of hiring full-time security, GxP, and QA experts.
Challenges
Security and compliance solutions need to be integrated with the business’s goals, priorities, and operational processes. To do that effectively, you need security and compliance experts with a deep understanding of aligning best practices with your organization’s mission and objectives.
Full-time, highly-qualified information security, data privacy, and GxP experts are expensive and in high demand. Relying on non-skilled personnel to fulfill these critical roles puts your reputation and revenue at risk.
Solutions

Fractional CISO, DPO and GxP leaders
Collaborate with IT and business stakeholders to drive strategy and initiatives to mature your security program.
Program Development
Our experts in security, data privacy, and GxP will develop a strategy, document policies and procedures, identify and manage gaps, and create a plan of actions and milestones, and implement ongoing improvements.
Security Framework Advice
Leverage our expertise in industry frameworks including: NIST SP 800-53, 800-171, CMMC, ISO 27001, 21 CFR Part 11, and other models to develop the best approaches for your business.

Integrated Risk Management
We first seek to understand your business then help you efficiently protect it.
Challenges
The business drives security. There is little need for security if your organization can’t effectively serve its customers and generate revenue. That’s why we take a risk management approach to security. Not only does this align investment in security controls with your valued data assets and business risks, but it also helps employees understand their role in safeguarding the organization.
Solutions
We help you approach security from a risk management perspective through:
Risk Assessment & Strategy
We know that it is important to understand your risks and to measure the effectiveness of your risk management strategy, and provide leading methodologies that help you demonstrate progress.
Data Protection & Governance
CREO understands that data is the lifeblood of most organizations, and we focus on understanding what the most important data is, where it resides, and how it flows before defining a plan for protecting it.
Culture Transformation
We have seen firsthand how the best security controls will fail if people don’t understand their roles and expectations. We take time to understand your users and provide engaging and impactful security training that connects.
Threat Operations
We help protect your organization from persistent cyber threats so you can focus on driving your business.
Challenges
Cyber attackers are always improving their techniques, and they never sleep. Vulnerabilities such as software bugs and system misconfigurations provide an open door for attackers to exploit. Staying ahead of attackers is a tall order, and not all businesses can afford the resources to monitor for threats around the clock.
CREO provides you with cost-effective threat operations capabilities that help improve your business resiliency.
Solutions

Regulatory Compliance
Our experienced security compliance experts can help you efficiently comply with regulatory requirements appropriate for your business needs.
Challenges
Regulations are rapidly raising corporate security and privacy expectations to protect the rights of individuals and their data. Your customers likely have their own compliance requirements and expect you to demonstrate your security posture is similarly aligned with these regulations. Many regulations have complex and overlapping security requirements that can be difficult to reconcile, and penalties for non-compliance can be substantial.
Solutions
We help you achieve your compliance objectives efficiently and effectively:
Compliance Strategy
We first aim to understand your holistic compliance needs. Then we design compliance approaches that can be applied across multiple regulations, saving you time and money.

Cloud Security
Our cloud security experts help you protect your valued data and applications so you can focus on the benefits of the cloud.
Challenges
While cloud computing, storage, and Microsoft 365 offer many improved security controls, they also introduce risks that are often not well understood. Organizations using cloud service providers often have a false sense of security by assuming that the provider is protecting their mission-critical systems and data assets. Your cloud security is only as effective as your systems are architected, designed, and configured, and many of these responsibilities remain with your organization.
Solutions
We help protect your cloud environment through:
Microsoft 365 Security Health Check
Conducting technical security review of your M365 tenant(s) and provide actionable configuration improvements.
Data Center Compliance Alignment
Expert advice to help ensure your outsourced data centers are aligned with GxP requirements, Part 11, Annex 11, Predicate Rules, GDPR, SOCs, and HIPAA.
