// 00 · Practices

Two focused practices. One firm.

GRDS // AI

Deploy a high-value AI workflow — measured, secure, and yours to operate.

Start here: AI Readiness Assessment — feasibility, data audit, cost projection, and risk assessment scoped to your environment.

GRDS // SEC

AI-native security and SecOps that detects faster, responds harder, and proves it with data.

Start here: Security Posture & AI Readiness Assessment — threat model, telemetry audit, tooling review, and prioritized roadmap scoped to your environment.

// 01 · How We Work

Free fit call → scoped proposal → milestone delivery.

Entry
We start with a free 30-minute fit call. If there's a match, we move into a scoped proposal phase before any implementation work begins.
Delivery
Milestone-based engagements with one-page specs, scorecards, and handoff-ready deliverables — code, detections, runbooks — that your team owns.
Principles
Vendor-neutral. Measurable outcomes. No black-box magic. No open-ended hourly billing. No lock-in.

// 02 · Why GRDS

Practitioner-led. Handoff-ready. No lock-in.

GRDS is a boutique, practitioner-led firm — not a body shop and not an MSSP. We bring years of production AI deployment and hands-on detection engineering / SecOps experience across real environments.

We're built for startups and SMBs who need production outcomes without building full internal AI or security teams from scratch.

Every engagement ends with deliverables your team can operate, audit, and extend — not permanent dependency on us.
