Cybersecurity Services for Bit by Bit Computer Consultants

Bruce Steinfeld started Bit by Bit from a studio apartment in New York's West Village in 1987, and he still owns it. Three offices now carry the name: West 29th Street in Manhattan, Arlington in Texas and Newton just outside Boston. The firm reports a 98 percent client retention rate and an average staff tenure of seven years, figures that say more about the place than any award would. Architecture and engineering practices, law firms, healthcare groups and nonprofits fill much of the book

Continuity on that scale concentrates institutional knowledge in a small number of heads. It works beautifully right up until the work changes shape, and for this client base it has. Law firms are now audited by their own corporate clients through outside counsel security questionnaires. Engineering practices bidding on infrastructure and public sector projects are asked to evidence controls nobody ever wrote down. Healthcare groups get the same treatment from payers. None of it arrives gradually, and a firm whose three offices sit a long way apart cannot simply move a person from Arlington to Manhattan because a questionnaire landed on a Tuesday

This is where CWS comes in, quietly. We staff the engagement under the Bit by Bit name and deliver to one standard, wherever in the United States or Canada the client sits, and in French when Quebec or Canadian federal rules make that necessary. Corova holds the scoping, the quoting and the project tracking, so nothing depends on one person remembering where a project stands. The relationship stays exactly where it has been since the West Village
