01
Virtual CIO (vCIO)
Executive-level technology strategy and budgeting, aligned to where your business is going, without the cost of a full-time executive.
Virtual CIO + Managed IT
The IT partner that keeps small businesses running, and out of the headlines.
Real executive IT leadership, proactive security, and a plan for when things go wrong. Led by a CISSP with more than 30 years in the field.
CISSP-led30+ yearsProactive, not reactive
The difference
Most IT waits for something to break. We make sure it doesn't.
A help desk reacts to broken hardware. A technology partner protects the business behind it. That shift, from reactive to proactive, is the whole point of working with FD.
The reactive help desk
- You call once something is already down.
- Security is an afterthought, bolted on later.
- No tested plan for ransomware or disaster.
- Surprise emergency bills you can't budget for.
FD, your proactive partner
- Technology planned around your business goals.
- Security built into daily operations and culture.
- Step-by-step continuity and disaster plans, tested.
- Predictable budgeting, far fewer surprises.
What we do
Four ways we take technology off your plate.
02
Managed IT + Security Training
Day-to-day IT that just works, paired with continuous employee security training to close the biggest gap of all: human error.
03
Business Continuity + Disaster Planning
Backups and step-by-step recovery plans so a failure, a ransomware attack, or a disaster never becomes financial ruin.
04
Compliance as a Service
Meet tightening cyber insurance requirements and regulations with a partner who manages compliance continuously, not once a year.
The point
The goal isn't to fix problems faster. It's to stop them from happening.
We build protection into your operations and your culture, so the vulnerabilities that come from everyday human error get closed before a breach ever starts.

A clear path from risk to peace of mind.
01
Assess
We review your systems, security, and risks, then show you exactly where you stand in plain language.
02
Plan
You get a prioritized technology roadmap and a budget mapped to your business goals, not a pile of jargon.
03
Protect
We manage, monitor, and train continuously, and keep a tested plan ready for the worst day, so it stays an inconvenience, not a catastrophe.
Why FD
Enterprise-grade IT leadership, sized for your business.
The strategy, security, and planning that used to belong only to companies with a full IT department are now within reach for smaller, higher-risk organizations. That is what FD Consulting exists to do: give you a seat at the table with someone who has spent three decades keeping businesses safe.

30+ years experience
Executive-level guidance
Bringing FD in felt less like hiring an IT company and more like finally having a technology leader who understood the business. We stopped bracing for the next emergency.
