  • Over the years, our partnership with Moran has been paramount to our security strategy and organizational success. Their unwavering commitment to our security posture, strategic guidance, and hands-on support — especially through the placement of a dedicated virtual Chief Information Security Officer — has elevated our resilience and readiness in an increasingly complex threat landscape. They’ve been more than a vendor; they’ve been a true extension of our team.

  • Cybersecurity strategy evolves rapidly with emerging threats and as a small university with no dedicated cybersecurity staff, most of our efforts were still focused solely on protection and prevention. The Moran Cybersecurity team used the NIST CSF 2.0 as a tool to teach us what’s expected of a mature cybersecurity program and give us a roadmap to build a comprehensive program — all while demonstrating a nuanced understanding of the unique challenges small universities face.

  • As a newly promoted senior security leader, I was suddenly hit from every direction with needs, requests, and responsibilities. I felt underwater and unsure what to tackle next. Moran stepped into the gap and guided me through the chaos so I could step into my new role with confidence. Whether it was incident response, policy changes, hiring, acquisitions, or anything else I raised, I could take on every challenge thanks to the professionalism and expertise of the Moran Cybersecurity team.

  • Moran provided an excellent overview reflecting the work both Moran’s and our team have driven together. The feedback from my team was genuinely positive, and we could not have gotten here without Moran’s guidance, expertise, project oversight, and openness to feedback. Moran delivered a thoughtful, well-structured roadmap that clearly ties together governance, lifecycle, data abstraction layer considerations, with a strong focus on keeping it actionable.
