Simplify Your Security Strategy with CipherNorth

Boutique cybersecurity consulting for founders, tech teams, and executives who need clarity โ€” not complexity. Based in Birmingham, AL. Serving clients nationwide.

What We Do

CipherNorth is a cybersecurity advisory firm built for leaders who are tired of vendors selling fear and delivering PowerPoints. We partner with you to right-size your security program, navigate audits, and prepare for what's next - whether that's a customer due diligence request, an investor question, or an active incident.

Three Ways We Help

Advisory & Strategy

Fractional CISO, security program development, go-to-market advisory, and board reporting.

Operations & Response

Incident response planning, tabletop exercises, and cyber readiness for when, not if, something happens.

Testing & Readiness

Assessments, vulnerability management, audit readiness, and AI governance.

Why CipherNorth

  • Real experience. 18+ years across financial services, healthcare, and enterprise security, not slide decks.

  • Right-sized thinking. We match the solution to your actual risk, not a vendor's upsell.

  • Clear communication. We translate security into language your board, investors, and customers understand.

  • Trusted network. When we can't do it ourselves, we bring in vetted partners who can.
