About Securance

Securance is an IT risk management firm started in 2002 by technology experts from the Big 4 accounting firms. The founders, who included current owner and president Paul Ashe, wanted to provide highly specialized cybersecurity, compliance, and technology risk consulting services with unique advantages that only a small firm can offer. Today, Securance empowers agencies and enterprises with the insight they need to secure data and systems against cyber threats, manage compliance risks, and leverage technology to realize their missions and objectives. Our clients return to us for executive-level expertise; up-to-date knowledge of cyber threats, best practices, and compliance requirements; personalized service; and a commitment to exceeding expectations.

Our Expertise
Unlike large firms that use senior resources to lead client assessments, then hand the fieldwork over to less experienced consultants, we limit our professional staff to IT and compliance executives. Senior consultants with 15—and, often, 30 or more—years of experience execute every Securance project from cradle to grave. They use their expertise across industries, including the state and local government sector, and in hundreds of IT environments to identify risks and mitigation strategies that fit each client.

Securance requires its staff members to maintain prestigious certifications, fulfill continuing education requirements, and participate in regular professional development opportunities. Our certifications include but are not limited to:

• Certified Business Continuity Professional (CBCP)
• Certified Data Privacy Solutions Engineer (CDPSE)
• Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH)
• Certified HIPAA Professional (CHP)
• Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA)
• Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP)
• Certified Information Security Manager (CISM)
• Certified Internal Auditor (CIA)
• Certified Public Accountant (CPA)
• Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification Accreditation Body Registered Practitioner (CMMC-AB RP)
• Global Information Assurance Certifications (GIAC)
• Healthcare Information Security and Privacy Practitioner (HCISPP)
