No account managers. No junior staff rotating through your engagement. Senior practitioners who own your outcomes from day one.

What We've Built

We don't just advise.
We build.

Three platforms, built by the same practitioners who lead client engagements. Not white-labeled. Not outsourced. Ours.

Third-party risk management

Scout

A TPRM platform, not another vendor list.

Evidence-based scoring, continuous monitoring, and live vendor connection mapping, with an embedded AI analyst alongside your GRC team. When an incident hits a vendor, you already know what's exposed and where, before the call comes in.

Explore Scout
M&A tech & security lifecycle

Anvil

Diligence becomes the integration plan.

From first look through post-close integration. Anvil gives M&A teams one platform to assess targets, plan TSAs, execute integration, and report to the board through every phase.

Coming Soon
Security program management

Command

The operating system for your security program.

Roadmap, controls, exceptions, audits, and board reporting in a single workspace. Built for security leaders running their own program, vCISOs running several at once, and PE firms managing security across a portfolio.

How We Work

A partnership, not a project.

Week 1

Discovery

Direct conversation with senior practitioners. No account manager between you and the work. We learn your business, your risk landscape, and what success looks like for your organization.

First 30 days

Roadmap

Prioritized, sequenced, and resourced. You see exactly what we'd do, why, and in what order. Concrete deliverables tied to outcomes, not vague phases.

Months 1 to 6

Embedded execution

The same team that scoped it builds it, in your environment, alongside your people. We integrate with your team and own outcomes. No handoffs, no junior staff parachuting in.

Ongoing

Strategic partnership

Security and technology aren't projects. They're capabilities. We adapt as your business and the threat landscape change, and help you build internal muscle that outlasts our engagement.

A pylon is a gateway. The threshold between what's protected and what isn't.

That's what we build for our clients

About Pylon Group

Built by operators,
not observers.

The Pylon Group is an advisory and software studio led by a practicing CISO and CIO. Two decades inside the seat. Senior practitioners embedded in your team, paired with the tools we wished existed when we ran those programs ourselves.

Pylon works with mid-market and PE-backed companies in regulated and high-stakes industries like healthcare, pharmaceutical, financial services, and manufacturing, where security and technology decisions carry real consequence.
