A certified minority woman-owned firm delivering cybersecurity, compliance, and generative AI architecture for healthcare and federal, state, and local government nationwide — led by senior practitioners who attack it, defend it, and build it.
Full-spectrum: offensive testing, 24/7 defense, compliance to Authorization to Operate, and secure AI development — from one certified partner, delivered by senior practitioners.
Most firms sell you a partner and staff you with juniors. We don't. The senior practitioners who scope your engagement are the ones who deliver it — accountable end to end.
20+ year specialists scope and do the work — no bait-and-switch to junior staff after the contract is signed.
Red-team attackers, blue-team defenders, and compliance leads under one roof — so findings connect instead of falling through the gaps.
ISO 9001 & 27001, WOSB, and state small-business certifications — a record that holds up to auditors and contracting officers alike.
We build generative and agentic AI — and authored the governance frameworks that keep it compliant as the regulation lands.
The offensive, defensive, compliance, and build capabilities most small firms can't cover — delivered by senior practitioners, mapped to the frameworks your auditors and customers require.
Security spending is being forced by regulation and losses, not sentiment — and it is concentrated in exactly the work EFTC delivers.
Ransomware against clinics, specialty groups, and smaller providers surged in late 2025, and the smallest organizations are the predominant victims — driving demand for pen testing, MDR, and incident response.
Government and enterprise are moving off spreadsheets and legacy tools onto Salesforce, ServiceNow, and modern GRC platforms — and they need certified partners who can implement, integrate, and build on them securely.
Identity is the new perimeter, and every federal component is moving toward zero trust ahead of the mandate — pulling budget into architecture, identity, and microsegmentation work.
The updated HIPAA Security Rule, expected to finalize in 2026, turns risk assessment into a continuous, NIST-aligned obligation — converting one-time projects into recurring compliance work.
Gartner expects 40% of enterprise applications to include AI agents by 2026, yet a large share of AI projects fail on cost, risk, and governance. Secure, governed AI development is the gap.
Federal agencies are buying AI and cyber at scale — zero trust, cloud, and autonomous systems — and small businesses with the right certifications and talent can win the subcontract and set-aside work.
The same senior team, tuned to the mandates and buyers of each market.
Protect patient data and meet HIPAA without a large in-house security team.
Authorization, compliance, and independent oversight from a certified small business.
Senior security, compliance, and AI development without the enterprise overhead.
Fixed-scope engagements that prove value fast, then convert into the recurring programs that keep you secure and compliant.
A fixed-scope engagement — HIPAA or NIST risk assessment, penetration test, or FedRAMP readiness — that surfaces your real exposure and a prioritized roadmap.
We close the gaps and build what's missing — controls, zero trust, secure applications, and the evidence that stands up to an audit.
Ongoing vCISO, managed detection & response, and continuous compliance keep you defended and audit-ready year round.
The rules governing AI and healthcare security are tightening fast. EFTC has been building — and helping shape the response — ahead of the deadlines, not after them.
As AI regulation and federal policy took shape, EFTC authored governance frameworks that map real, testable controls to emerging law — so clients deploy generative and agentic AI that is auditable from day one.
The updated HIPAA Security Rule turns the one-time assessment into a continuous, NIST-aligned obligation. We stand up the recurring program before enforcement — not in a scramble after a finding.
Federal zero-trust deadlines are pulling budget into identity, segmentation, and architecture. We sequence the work so agencies meet the mandate without stalling the mission.
As a trusted subcontractor, EFTC helped a statewide correctional health system pass its independent security assessment every year, modernized its security and AI-governance tools, and drove a formal Corrective Action Plan on a state modernization vendor as an independent verification & validation (IV&V) provider. Results the client's Chief Information Security Officer will confirm.
EFTC is founder-led and delivery-driven. The person accountable for your engagement has done the work — architecting security, compliance, and AI modernization for government and enterprise.
