Center for Cyber Intelligence

Tailored Cybersecurity for All Small Businesses

Beginning merely as a concept in 2015, the Center for Cyber Intelligence (CCI) was founded in February 2019 as an open community dedicated to creating, standardizing, and sharing cyber intelligence best practices. Since then, we have expanded our horizons to provide a host of cybersecurity consultation services, with a mission to provide low-cost solutions to empower small businesses.

Today, the Center for Cyber Intelligence (CCI) specializes in empowering small businesses with dedicated cybersecurity consultation services. We focus on delivering tailored cybersecurity standards and practical guidance specifically designed for small companies' unique challenges. Our mission is to foster a secure, innovative environment where small businesses can thrive without the complexities of cyber threats.

CCI provides accessible, expert-driven resources and solutions that are both affordable and easy to implement. We are committed to helping small business owners enhance their cybersecurity posture by simplifying the adoption of proven security practices and technologies.

As a small business that prides itself on being vendor agnostic, we are not pressured by the commercial industry. This allows us to provide our clients with unbiased, practical, and cost-effective cybersecurity solutions.

We believe in the power of community and collaboration. Thus, CCI actively engages with small business leaders to exchange knowledge, share effective strategies, and establish cybersecurity best practices that are realistic and sustainable for the small business ecosystem.

As we did when we were founded, we still aim to make dozens of CCI tools, documents, and other resources available to anyone interested in improving the cyber intelligence industry for free or at no cost. We will forever retain a mindset of contribution to open-source projects and remain dedicated to producing materials and services collaboratively.
