Cybersecurity for Firms Whose
Data is Regulated

Cybersecurity and compliance solutions designed for professional services firms across the DMV.

Where Cybersecurity
Quietly Falls Short

What firms find when their security posture gets tested or audited.

Tools deployed but not watched.


Most firms have the security tools running. Far fewer have someone watching the alerts. Signals stack up unread, and the breach happens through one of them.

Compliance posture assumed, not documented.

The leadership team believes the firm is compliant. The auditor asks for the documentation, and the gap between practice and proof shows up. Half the controls are in place, and half are theoretical.

Generic protection on regulated data.

The same security setup that works for a marketing agency gets sold to a law firm. The technical controls might overlap, but the regulators don’t ask the same questions. What satisfies one industry leaves another exposed.

Threat changes that haven't reached the policy.

The threat landscape moves faster than the policy document. New attack patterns emerge while the firm’s controls stay where they were two years ago. The policy was right when it was written and is incomplete now.

Cybersecurity That Holds Up To Audit

Cybersecurity is more than a tool stack. It's the documentation, monitoring, and operational discipline that proves the tools are doing what they're supposed to. We build cybersecurity for professional services firms whose breach would be a regulatory event, with controls mapped against the obligations the firm answers to and audit-ready documentation that matches the live setup.

Demonstrable Security

Layered security with documentation that matches what's running so the firm can show on audit day exactly what the controls do.

24/7 Monitoring And Response

A managed SOC watching for threats around the clock, with humans triaging alerts and responding to incidents before they reach your team.

Mapped To Your Regulators

Controls aligned to whichever frameworks your firm answers to, including SEC, FINRA, the bar, and HIPAA.

17 Years In
The DMV

Cybersecurity for the legal, accounting, financial, and pharma firms in this market, with industry knowledge built in before any deployment starts.

Senior
Accountability

The senior person who scopes your security setup is the senior person who runs the response when something happens.

A Risk-Free First Month

30 days of deployment with 100% of your fees refunded if the engagement isn't delivering what we promised.

“Having worked with other IT firms in the past, I value the responsiveness to IT issues and concerns BASE Solutions provides me and my firm. I also appreciate that a team member takes the time to verify that issues have been resolved and I’m satisfied before closing out a ticket.”

What We Cover

All shaped by the audits, regulators, and clients your firm answers to.

Fully Managed Security

End-to-end cybersecurity is managed by BASE, with a 24/7 SOC, layered controls across endpoints and the network, and the operational discipline that keeps it all working together. Most clients have us running their entire security operation, with leadership getting a single point of accountability and a single monthly cost. The service covers the day-to-day defense, the periodic testing, and the documentation that proves it works.

Email Security

Email is the most common attack surface for professional services firms. We deploy multi-layered email security that catches phishing and impersonation before they reach the inbox, plus malware protection on every attachment. The setup integrates with the team’s existing Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace environment without changing how people work.

Email Security

Cyber Risk Assessment

Before any controls go in, we map where the firm’s risk sits today. The assessment covers your technology, your data, your people, and the obligations your firm answers to. The output is a clear picture of the gaps that need closing, prioritized against business impact and the regulators’ expectations.

Cyber Risk

Penetration Testing

Real-world testing of your defenses by people whose job is to break them. We run penetration tests against your network, applications, and people on a defined cycle, with clear reporting on what was found and what needs to change. Tests get repeated after remediation so the fix is verified, not assumed.

Cloud Security

Cloud workloads need their own security posture, distinct from on-premises systems. We secure your Microsoft 365, Azure, AWS, and SaaS platforms with the controls each environment requires. That includes identity management, data protection, and continuous monitoring to catch misconfigurations before they’re exploited.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about IT support in Arlington.

What's the difference between fully managed security and just buying a SIEM?

SIEM is a tool that collects security data. Fully managed security is the team operating the tool, triaging the alerts it generates, and responding to incidents. Most firms can buy a SIEM. Far fewer can staff a 24/7 SOC to make sense of what it shows.

We start by mapping the frameworks your firm answers to, including the SEC, FINRA, state bar guidance, HIPAA, and your client engagement letters. From there, we build the security setup against the requirements, with documentation that matches whichever audit or regulator review the firm faces. The controls and documentation are mapped to your specific obligations, not a generic template.

The 24/7 SOC catches and contains incidents in real time. The senior team you work with gets engaged for any incident requiring a leadership decision, including communication with regulators or clients. Post-incident, we run a full review and update the controls to prevent the same path being used again.

Penetration testing runs on a defined cycle, typically annually for the full environment with quarterly tests on the highest-priority systems. Between tests, we run continuous vulnerability scanning and update controls as new attack patterns emerge.

Most IT relationships start with a long contract and crossed fingers. Ours start with a way out if you ever need one.
