Put our privacy expertise to the test! Let our firm help you uncover and design around risk, putting your products and services ahead of the competition.
Boutique privacy consultancy with subject matter expertise in privacy design and threat modeling. Let us help you build privacy into your products, services or business processes.
Did you know that privacy is about more than just securing personal data?
You may (not) be surprised, but most businesses don’t!
In a survey of companies, NYU Professor Ari Waldman found most privacy lawyers equated privacy to notice and choice whereas most IT professionals equated privacy to encryption or security.
Businesses have blindspots when it comes to privacy and most wouldn’t even notice certain privacy risks. Often, they are often too focused on security and data breaches, which distract from basic privacy concerns, but security and privacy are separate, though both important concerns.
Ready to up your privacy game?
Privacy should always be a guarantee… together we can make it so!
Every potential interaction, whether with people, information, or even property can pose potential privacy risks.
But how can you possibly account for every potential risk?
That’s where we come in… ensuring your products and services surpass the competition.
Designing for Privacy Requires
– considering non-security issues, such as the secondary use of information, interrogation and interfering with individuals’ autonomy in decision making.
– systematically identifying threats and threat actors.
– building a team and organization that do this on a continuous basis.
(Security doesn’t give you that)
Up Your Privacy Game.
A little privacy goes a long way when you build from within… Let us help you build privacy into all elements of your products, services, and business processes.

Related Work Experience
Engaged in a NIST Privacy Framework effort as the subject matter expert, in 2019, by an early adopter, Jason Cronk was perhaps the first consultant to align a company the NIST Privacy Framework, even prior to formal adoption of V1.0.
Jason was active in the drafting of the framework, providing commentary, blogging and developing the Privacy Framework – GDPR crosswalk and has continued his work in the area by being an active member of the NIST Privacy Workforce Working Group creating task, knowledge and skills statements for framework CORE subcategories.
Jason has previously completed privacy program maturity assessments using GAPP – Generally Acceptable Privacy Principles.
Set Up Your Privacy Engineering Program
Too many organizations rely on a compliance-driven effort to resolve concerns, resulting in, at best, only partially addressing “privacy.” That’s because compliance measures alone are inadequate to deal with the numerous privacy regulations that continue to be introduced across the world at a dizzying rate not to mention the non-regulatory privacy issues of concern to individuals.
With so much regulatory fluctuation, you need a comprehensive, reliable, and uncomplicated approach to privacy that can withstand all the ups and downs – you need to build privacy in, with the help of a solid Privacy Engineering program.
Privacy Engineer Training
While privacy by design focuses the design of a given product, service, or process, Privacy Engineering takes a scientific approach to solving privacy problems.
In doing so, Privacy Engineers require a certain set of skills. Attracting qualified people to join your Privacy Engineering team is the most important step in building a competent Privacy Engineering program. With our specific expertise, we can help you zero in on the skills you need and where you need them, and draft job descriptions that reflect those needs.
