Cybersecurity services firm: assessments, compliance, incident response, and managed defense
Echelon Risk + Cyber is a dedicated cybersecurity services partnership (51–200 employees, Pittsburgh) founded in 2021. The tech stack reveals a mature SOC and detection infrastructure: CrowdStrike Falcon, LogScale, SIEM, Metasploit, Burp Suite, and Nmap across assessment and monitoring workflows. Security hiring dominates at 21 of 27 active roles—majority senior and intern—suggesting both senior expertise depth and program-building capacity. Current project focus spans EDR/SIEM implementation, incident response playbooks, and cloud policy design, while pain points cluster around SOC operations, threat detection, and client maturity improvement.
Echelon Risk + Cyber delivers offensive security testing, defensive monitoring, audits, assessments, compliance readiness, and virtual CISO services to mid-market and enterprise clients. The firm operates a three-phase service model: ASSESS (tailored risk posture evaluation), COMPLY (standards and regulatory alignment via GRC frameworks), and BUILD (augmentation of client security capabilities). Across AWS, Azure, and GCP environments, the team deploys CrowdStrike Falcon EDR/SIEM, LogScale for log management, and frameworks including SOC 2, CMMC, and NIST. Active recruitment spans Mexico and the United States, with accelerating hiring velocity.
