Read moreManaged Security Offerings
Security operations that run continuously, not a report you read once
Nine managed programs — monitored, analyzed, and acted on by our team, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
Who we protect
Built for the organizations that can't afford downtime
From federally regulated institutions to the utilities that keep the lights on and the water clean — we defend environments where a breach is measured in more than dollars.
Electric Cooperatives & Utilities
Substation, SCADA, and control-network monitoring that surfaces intrusions passively — without ever tripping a relay.
Water & Wastewater
PLC and process traffic watched for unsafe changes and tampering, with audit-ready evidence for regulators.
Financial Services
400+ federally regulated institutions trust us for detection, response, and examiner-ready compliance reporting.
Manufacturing
Ransomware, insider misuse, and rogue control-system changes caught before they halt the plant floor.
Government & Municipal
A dedicated security team watching public-sector networks 24/7 — at a cost that fits a public budget.
Healthcare
HIPAA-aligned monitoring and response that protects patient data without disrupting clinical operations.
Why teams choose us
The same operating principle, every time
Automation does the finding. Our analysts do the deciding — on every one of the nine programs below.
A human always decides
Automation discovers and drafts. An analyst reviews before anything is sent or acted on.
Coverage that doesn't sleep
IT, cloud, OT/ICS, brand, and dark-web exposure — watched continuously, not quarterly.
Signal, not noise
Thousands of raw findings collapse into a short, ranked queue of what actually matters.
One connected platform
Every signal correlates on the Léargas platform, so findings reinforce each other.
Built to be run, not just installed
Every managed offering is staffed and watched — a team behind the platform, not a dashboard left for you to interpret alone.
Real analysts, not just rules
A dedicated team reviews findings across every program — every day, every shift.
Coverage that doesn't sleep
IT, cloud, OT/ICS, brand, and dark-web exposure — watched continuously, not on a schedule.
Signal, not noise
Thousands of raw findings collapse into a short, ranked queue of what actually matters.
One connected platform
Every signal correlates on the Léargas platform, so findings reinforce each other instead of sitting in silos.
What we manage for you
Nine programs. One team behind all of them.
Each of these is a managed capability our analysts run on your behalf — not a tool we hand you and walk away from.
Managed Detection & Response (MDR)
Our Managed SOC (mSOC) delivers complete visibility across IT, Cloud, and OT/ICS — EDR, SIEM correlation, threat intel, dark web monitoring, and 24/7 human response, powered by the Léargas platform.
Virtual CISO
On-demand access to a seasoned security executive who develops, implements, and manages your information security strategy — CISO-level judgment at a cost that makes sense.
Malicious Domain Discovery
Continuous, human-supervised detection of look-alike domains used for phishing and BEC — with evidence gathered and takedowns drafted before an imposter can strike.
Dark Web & Data Leak Monitoring
Dark web and data-leak monitoring — surfacing leaked credentials, secrets, and PII across paste sites, Tor, and I2P before they’re weaponized.
SkyWatch
Cloud security posture, continuously assessed — AWS, Azure, GCP, Microsoft 365, and Google Workspace audited against CIS, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2, and CISA SCuBA.
Léargas Security Platform
A new breed of multi-directional IDS with the ability to see traffic moving North-to-South and East-to-West — the platform our managed services are built on.
High Profile Protection
Discreet cybersecurity for High and Ultra High Net Worth individuals — devices, yachts, jets, and homes, protected with dark web monitoring and incident response.
Managed Vulnerability Management
Continuous scanning across IT, cloud, and OT/ICS — findings validated, prioritized by real risk, and tracked to remediation by our analysts instead of dumped in a report.
Security Awareness & Phishing Simulation
Managed training and realistic phishing campaigns that turn your workforce into a sensor — run, measured, and reported on by our team so risky behavior drops over time.
Professional services
Expertise across the full security lifecycle
From assessment and testing to response and compliance — specialized skill-sets that reduce the cyber security risks faced by our clients and partners.
AI-Powered Threats: Real Solutions
Artificial intelligence isn’t just a tool for innovation — it’s also being weaponized by attackers. We can help you meet the challenge.
Vulnerability Assessments
Identify the cybersecurity risks your business faces and evaluate your currently deployed security technologies and procedures.
Zeek-IDS Consulting
Critical Path Security has the experience to deliver custom detections and protocol analyzers to help you overcome any challenge.
Incident Response
Our Incident Response service follows the process recommended by the SANS Institute, designed to prevent any further damage from happening.
Penetration Testing
Breaching your own security infrastructure exposes critical vulnerabilities and reduces liability — because even sophisticated strategies fail if people, processes, and technology aren’t regularly tested.
Compliance Audits
Knowing your weakness is as important as knowing your strength. Proactive strategies protect vital data, systems, and infrastructure and improve your security posture.
How engagement works
From first call to clear answers
-
01
Assess
We map your environment, exposure, and compliance obligations — IT, cloud, and OT — and agree on what matters most.
-
02
Deploy
Sensors and integrations connect to the tools you already run. No rip-and-replace, typically live within days.
-
03
Monitor & Respond
Our analysts watch every signal 24/7/365. Automation finds; a human decides before anything reaches you.
-
04
Report & Advise
Plain-language reporting your board and auditors can read, plus ongoing executive guidance from your vCISO.
In their words
What our clients say
Patrick, I would just like to say thank you. You have just made a complete fool out of a major record label. I cannot thank you enough.
Thanks again for recommending the Critical Path team. They were great and we will continue to engage with them for future audits.
Thank you Virginia and Patrick for all your help, we would not be able to do this on our own.
Patrick has a lot of passion for anything he dips his toes into. When he does it, he goes all the way — that's what he's done with Léargas and Critical Path Security, and that's how he plans to do it with racing. I'm happy and blessed to be carrying his company's name.
Patrick is a consummate professional and excels in all facets of the IT industry. He is very knowledgeable and always there to help others.
A commanding ability to implement testing in an automated framework to drive repeatability and efficiency… a strong technical leader for any project or organization.
A constant desire to see what he can do to make things go smoother, quicker, and more accurately… turned me from a detractor to a 110% promoter.
Consistently shown diligence, integrity and an acute attention to detail, while never losing sight of the big picture.
