Silent Quadrant's team of experts brings unparalleled experience advancing cyber resilience for clients ranging from the top Washington, D.C. lobby firms to the nation's largest energy checkoff program to prominent national trade associations. In 2022 and 2023, the firm received the prestigious designation of "Inc.

"As escalating cyber threats target organizations across every sector, continuously strengthening digital resilience is imperative, particularly for innovators in critical emerging fields," said Kenneth Holley, Principal and Chairman of Silent Quadrant.

"We are finalizing steps to complete the SOC 2 – Type 1 evaluation, and simultaneously, aggressively pursuing the SOC 2 – Type 2 designation," said Billingsley. SOC 2 (Systems and Organization Controls 2) was developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants in 2010 as a framework that specifies how an organization should protect customer data from unauthorized access, security incidents, and other vulnerabilities, and it has been called the gold standard of data security. "Silent Quadrant's guidance on strict, state-of-the-art cybersecurity procedures are invaluable as we continue maturing our information protection programs to meet the threats of today and tomorrow. Our commitment is to ensure our protocols reflect the highest standards in data privacy and security."
