IRON::Guard is different from other security consulting firms. One difference is that we don't hire "consultants." We hire experts who have established long term successful track records actually doing IT work, not just talking about it. For some, that meant designing and developing sophisticated middle ware technologies or applications. For others, it meant planning, implementing, and managing large production data centers. The differences, which you will immediately recognize, fall into two broad categories: how IRON::Guard is different as a company and how our methodologies are different.
