Cybersecurity & Resilience
Resilience is a leadership decision, not just a technical control.
Boards, insurers, auditors and customers are asking harder questions about security and continuity. Meridian helps you answer them honestly — assessing where you stand, closing the gaps that matter most and proving your organization can keep operating when something goes wrong.
When to call us
Signs it's time for an outside perspective.
- Cyber-insurance questionnaires or renewals that raised uncomfortable questions
- A business-continuity plan that hasn't been tested — or doesn't exist
- Security tools purchased without a program to run them
- Uncertainty about who does what during an incident
- Upcoming audits, vendor reviews or regulatory obligations

FAQ
Common questions
Which frameworks do you work with?
We typically align to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework and map findings to other obligations your organization has — for example HIPAA, FERPA or contractual security requirements.
Do you perform penetration testing?
Meridian focuses on program, governance and resilience. When technical testing is needed, we help you scope it, select a qualified provider and turn the results into action.
We've never tested our continuity plan. Where do we start?
Usually with a business impact analysis to confirm what matters most, followed by a facilitated tabletop exercise. It's the fastest way to find the gaps that matter.
