Security Through Decades of Experience
We Diagnose. You Cure. We Verify.
In the modern digital landscape, the person building your network shouldn’t be the only one checking it for holes. True security requires Separation of Duties—an independent set of eyes to validate that your defenses are working as intended.
At SMCotech, we specialize in External Vulnerability Scanning and Strategic Guidance. We do not manage your servers, and we do not touch your configurations. Instead, we provide the high-level intelligence and verification that your IT team needs to secure your perimeter.
The Difference: We Know How Systems Are Built
Automated tools can find open ports, but it takes an experienced human to understand the context of a vulnerability.
Our practice is led by Marc Cohen, a security strategist with a career spanning back to 1996. Marc hasn’t just studied IT; he has lived it.
- From the Server Room to the Boardroom: Marc’s background is not purely academic. He has held nearly every position in the IT hierarchy, from hands-on System Administration and Network Engineering to serving as a Chief Information Officer (CIO).
- 30 Years of Evolution: having managed technology through the dot-com boom, the rise of virtualization, and the cloud revolution, Marc understands the legacy code and “technical debt” that often hides deep within modern networks.
- MBA-Level Strategy: Combined with his Master of Business Administration, this technical pedigree ensures that our reporting speaks the language of risk and ROI. We don’t just hand you a list of bugs; we give you a business case for security.
What We Do: The Roadmap to Security
We empower your internal IT team or MSP with the data they need to succeed. Our process is simple:
- Identify: We map your attack surface and find the weaknesses using the same techniques adversaries use.
- Guide: We deliver clear, prioritized remediation steps for your team to execute.
- Verify: We re-scan to confirm your team successfully closed the gaps.
We provide the roadmap; you drive the car.
Secure your perimeter. Validate your team. Protect your future.
