A cybersecurity consultation is the first step every California business should take before a breach occurs — not after. From identifying gaps in your existing security posture to building a strategy that satisfies HIPAA, CCPA, and SOC 2 requirements, a professional cybersecurity consultation provides the roadmap your organization needs to protect sensitive data and avoid the legal consequences of a preventable incident. Xpozzed Digital Forensics delivers cybersecurity consultation services grounded in real investigative experience, not just theory.

Joseph Hanna, founder of Xpozzed and California BSIS Licensed Private Investigator (License No. 190161), personally leads every cybersecurity consultation. As a Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) and CISSP-certified professional with over 15 years of experience, Joseph has consulted for law firms, healthcare providers, financial institutions, and technology companies across Los Angeles, Orange County, and San Diego. His dual background as a cybersecurity specialist and Computer Forensics Qualified Expert Witness means his recommendations are designed to hold up in court.

Unlike generic IT consultants, Xpozzed approaches every cybersecurity consultation from an attacker’s perspective. Joseph uses the same techniques adversaries use to probe your environment — identifying the vulnerabilities most likely to be exploited — and then translates those findings into an actionable security strategy.

What Is a Cybersecurity Consultation and What Does It Include?

A cybersecurity consultation is a structured engagement in which a qualified security professional evaluates your organization’s current security posture, identifies vulnerabilities and compliance gaps, and provides strategic recommendations to reduce risk. For California businesses, this includes assessing exposure under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), reviewing access controls, and evaluating your incident response readiness.

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework is the gold standard for structuring cybersecurity strategy — and every Xpozzed consultation is aligned to its Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover functions. This ensures your security roadmap meets the expectations of regulators, insurers, and California courts.

Every Xpozzed cybersecurity consultation is conducted under California BSIS PI License No. 190161, meaning findings are legally privileged and can support litigation if a breach leads to civil or criminal proceedings.
