About Us

"Nothing beats working in the field, a very wide field with a varied customer base.  When you see a lot, you learn a lot."

Jeffrey A. Shearer, CISSP, PMP
Technical Director / Founder

"Contributing to the Industrial Cybersecurity field in a meaningful way is my goal.  The word "meaningful" can be interpreted in many different ways but to me nothing is meaningful unless it impacts the most important resource we have....people.  If we don't impact people through education then we've failed."

Industrial Software Assurance

Software Assurance has been defined as "the level of confidence that software is free from vulnerabilities, either intentionally designed into the software or accidentally inserted at any time during its lifecycle, and that the software functions in the intended manner." We are advancing the Industrial Software Assurance field by working with customers like Morris & Associates where these practices reduce coding errors and unintended machine behavior.
