Our Cyber Fitness Methodology

How we help businesses to become more productive, secure and compliant, by elevating their cyber fitness.

Get Cyber Fit With Our 3-Step Cyber Fitness Methodology

Assess Your Cyber Security Vitals

The first step in our 3-Step Cyber Plan for better Cyber Fitness, is to conduct a Cyber Vitals Exam. This is a comprehensive assessment of your organization’s current security and compliance measures. Our team of experts will review the state of your security, vulnerabilities, and potential misconfigurations to create an initial cyber health score and executive summary. 

The Cyber Vitals Exam will help us to:

  • Understand your organization’s cyber risk profile. 
  • Identify your security vulnerabilities and misconfigurations which increase risk.
  • Recommend ways to improve your security posture. 
  • Assess your compliance readiness with industry regulations. 


The Cyber Vitals Exam is a critical first step in improving your organization’s cyber health. By understanding your current risk profile and vulnerabilities, our team will develop and implement a customized Cyber Health Plan that will help you to achieve better cyber fitness and ensure compliance with industry regulations.

A Cyber Health Plan Tailored To Your Organization

Once we have assessed your current cyber health, we can develop a Cyber Health Plan to improve it. This plan includes specific goals and objectives, as well as a timeline for implementation. Our Cyber Health Plan also addresses the following areas: 

  • Security awareness and training: Your employees are your first line of defense against cyber-attacks. Make sure they are aware of the latest threats and how to protect themselves. 
  • Technical controls: Implement technical controls to protect your systems and data, such as firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and data loss prevention (DLP) solutions. 
  • Processes and procedures: Implement processes and procedures to manage your cyber risks, such as incident response and disaster recovery plans. 
  • Compliance: Make sure you are compliant with all applicable laws and regulations.

Achieve Cyber Fitness by implementing, monitoring, and refining Your Cyber Health Plan

Once we present your cyber health plan, it will become apparent that we shouldn’t waste time implementing it. This includes allocating resources, assigning responsibilities, and tracking progress. You can implement with your own team, hire another resource, or have Lightship IT implement your Cyber Health Plan.  We help businesses like yours achieve better Cyber Fitness. 

Here are some additional tips for improving your cyber fitness:

  • Perform regular cyber vital exams. 
  • Remain informed by subscribing to our cyber fitness newsletter. 
  • Continually raise awareness by educating your team with data security awareness training. 
  • Develop incident response plans to better protect your business when a cyber event occurs. 
  • Practice regular “table-top” exercises so your teams know what plan to follow. 

By following these tips, you can help to keep your business safe and cyber fit!

“Our previous IT support was pretty good about addressing issues as they arose, but Andy and the team at Lightship IT are far more proactive – constantly looking at our systems and investigating potential HIPAA violations, security threats, or firewall issues to catch things before they have a chance to become problems. “

Jo Ann O.

“Before Lightship IT,  I spent a significant amount of time fixing problems and maintaining the technology we needed to run the practice.
