A fixed-price security assessment means your quote is agreed in writing before work starts and does not move once agreed. Ours works that way, and the starting price is on the site too: starting at $9,500, scoped to company complexity, three weeks, no systems access, ending in ranked decisions with costs.
Price opacity is the norm in this market — most firms will not name a number without a discovery call, and buyers' guides in the industry literally list that behavior as a red flag. We put a starting price on every service page because a company evaluating advisers should not have to book a meeting to learn what three weeks of work costs.
What moves the number is no mystery: business units, systems, contractual obligations, whether a live customer security program must be evidenced. Either way, your number is scoped, quoted, and locked in writing before week one. The full scope is here, including a redacted page of the actual readout format.
