Why should I use RITC Cybersecurity?

The problem every company has no matter the size:
Every company, small and large, is unique due to differences in technology and IT team member
skill sets. In short, not everyone has the same tools in the toolbox. Unfortunately, due to
budgetary concerns, many small and medium-sized companies can’t afford a full-time security
team member, let alone a dedicated CISO. When small and medium-sized businesses engage
third parties for cybersecurity services, they are often sold inflexible, standardized, cookie-cutter
solutions that might check the security boxes but don’t really address the company’s specific
needs.

Why are small and medium sized companies so important?
Small and medium-sized companies are the engine that drives the American economy and are
not being protected properly. RITC Cybersecurity has made it our mission to bring Fortune 500-
level cybersecurity talent to businesses at a price they can afford because the reality of the U.S.
economy is that even Fortune 500 companies rely on small and medium-sized businesses to
survive. Small to medium-sized businesses make up a large part of the supply chain, especially in
the defense industry, where small companies include everyone from box makers and screw
makers to Bob the pipe bender. Without these small companies, aircraft carriers don’t float,
planes don’t fly, and cars can’t get off the assembly line. In short, the supply chain falls apart,
and that is why cybercriminals and state actors target small and medium-sized companies.

Ok, got it my small/medium size is important to the economy and especially me
and my family, that doesn’t tell me why I should trust RITC Cybersecurity?

Short Answer: Experience from the top of the team to the bottom

RITC Cybersecurity has the perfect team to fulfill your cybersecurity needs. Mike Rotondo
(Founder) has been in cybersecurity for about 25 years, working with organizations ranging from
Fortune 500 companies to small Fintech, Healthcare, and Defense companies with 10-20
employees. We have spent the last several years stretching small to medium-sized companies’ IT
budgets and augmenting existing internal teams to meet today’s compliance and customer
cybersecurity requirements. RITC Cybersecurity’s team knows how to create effective solutions
with technology you have in house rather than spending money that isn’t in your budget to
maintain compliance and meet your customer’s security requirements. We are confident we can
get you secure, compliant, and enable you to answer customer questionnaires and win bigger and
better deals to secure your future.
By engaging RITC Cybersecurity, your company can save you roughly 60-80% of what it would
cost to bring all the needed security resources in-house. While most companies in the
cybersecurity industry are focused on selling cybersecurity products and tools, RITC
Cybersecurity takes a technology-neutral approach, providing expertise and resources to small
and medium-sized businesses by maximizing and augmenting the team they have and coming up
with innovative solutions rather than relying on expensive, off-the-shelf solutions and cookie-
cutter programs.

Our last point we promise:
RITC Cybersecurity can function as your full security department if you don’t have your own
internal security team or integrate seamlessly into your existing Security or IT Team. RITC
Cybersecurity teaches companies to leverage their internal resources—both team and tools—for
their cybersecurity. We can help you identify and securely remove tools and application you
don’t need, and fully utilize the features of the tools you already own. Ultimately, our goal is to
work ourselves out of a job (though we hate to see you go) by training and equipping your team
to become your security team and the security experts for your company.
