Practice Areas

Where we deliver

Four deeply integrated capabilities—each a standalone practice, all stronger together. We advise, design, implement, and operate cloud environments built for the long run.

Azure Cloud Management

Governed, Optimized, Operationally Sound Azure Environments

We bring discipline to Azure tenants that have grown without formal governance. From subscription design and landing zones to identity, cost visibility, and policy enforcement—we make your cloud run the way it should.

Tenant Governance IAM Design Cost Optimization Policy Enforcement Landing Zones Monitoring & Ops

Data Architecture & Engineering

Data Infrastructure That Supports Real Business Decisions

We design and build data platforms that move from fragmented, disconnected sources to governed, analytics-ready foundations. Pipelines, data models, BI enablement, and platform modernization without the overengineering.

Data Strategy Pipeline Engineering Platform Modernization Data Governance BI Enablement Analytics Architecture

Cybersecurity

Security Posture Built on Practical Maturity, Not Fear

We help organizations move from reactive security to defensible, documented, and measurable postures. Access controls, cloud security reviews, risk-based remediation planning, and compliance alignment for organizations that need real accountability.

Cloud Backup & Resilience

Backup Strategy That Holds Up When It Has To

Most organizations have backup tools. Few have tested, recoverable, ransomware-resilient backup architectures connected to a real continuity plan. We close that gap—from architecture assessment to recovery readiness validation.

AI, Machine Learning & Automation

Operational AI Built on Real Data and Cloud Infrastructure

We help organizations move from AI curiosity to working capability—using Azure AI services, machine learning, and intelligent process automation to reduce manual work, surface better insights, and build systems that improve over time.

Strategic Focus

Backup isn't an IT checkbox.
It's a board-level resilience question.

93%

of companies that suffer a major data loss and don't recover within 10 days go out of business within one year

Most organizations assume their backup is working. CyberGuardian22 starts by verifying it actually is—then builds the strategy, architecture, and recovery plan to make resilience a documented, testable organizational capability rather than an assumption.

Explore Cloud Backup & Resilience

Backup Architecture Assessment

We evaluate your current backup posture against recovery objectives, identify gaps, and document what would actually happen in a real incident.

Ransomware-Resilient Design

Immutable backup copies, air-gapped storage tiers, and recovery workflows that function even when production systems are compromised.

SaaS & Cloud Workload Protection

Microsoft 365, Azure workloads, and critical SaaS applications require dedicated backup strategies that vendor-native tools don't fully provide.

Recovery Readiness Validation

We test restore scenarios and document recovery time and point objectives against real-world conditions—not theoretical SLAs that have never been verified.

Continuity Planning Integration

Backup strategy aligned with broader business continuity and incident response frameworks, so the tools, teams, and plans work together under pressure.

Common Challenges

Where organizations get stuck

The problems we solve are specific, recurring, and consequential. If your organization is experiencing any of these, we've solved them before.

"We have backups but we've never actually tested them."

We perform backup architecture assessments, validate restore scenarios against real RTOs and RPOs, and document what recovery actually looks like when the time comes.

"Our Azure environment grew fast and now nobody fully understands it."

We document, rationalize, and govern Azure environments that outpaced formal structure—establishing resource organization, IAM clarity, cost accountability, and policy enforcement.

"We have data everywhere but can't get reliable answers out of it."

We design data architectures that consolidate sources, standardize pipelines, and establish the governance and modeling needed for accurate, trusted reporting and analytics.

"We're not sure how we'd fare in a ransomware attack or audit."

We evaluate your security posture, identify critical exposure, map your controls to compliance frameworks, and build a prioritized, executable remediation plan.

"Our cloud costs keep growing and we can't trace where."

We implement cost management architecture—tagging standards, budget alerts, reserved instance analysis, and governance policies that make cloud spend visible and accountable.

"Leadership wants a security posture report and we don't know where to start."

We conduct structured security reviews, translate technical findings into executive language, and produce documentation appropriate for board-level reporting and compliance evidence.

Our Approach

A unified capability stack

Cloud, data, security, and resilience aren't independent workstreams—they share infrastructure, risk, and organizational impact. We treat them as an integrated discipline.

Engagement Model

How we engage

We work in clear, structured phases that minimize disruption and maintain momentum. Every engagement begins with understanding before recommending.

Discovery & Assessment

We invest time in understanding your current environment, constraints, risk profile, and priorities before forming any recommendations.

Strategy & Architecture

We produce a clear, documented strategy with prioritized recommendations—designed to be actionable, not aspirational.

Implementation

We execute alongside your team—building, configuring, and validating. We don't hand off recommendations and disappear.

Validation & Continuity

We test, document, and transfer knowledge—ensuring your team understands and can operate what we've built together.

Why CyberGuardian22

Advisory depth with execution discipline

Strategy without implementation is a document. Implementation without strategy is rework. We operate at both levels simultaneously.

We diagnose before we prescribe

Every environment is different. We spend time in discovery, document what we find, and base recommendations on your actual situation—not a vendor playbook or generic framework.

We stay through implementation

Recommendations that live in slide decks don't improve security postures. We design solutions we're willing to build and stand behind, and we stay engaged through validation.

We prioritize recoverability

Across every practice area—cloud, data, security, backup—we build for the recovery case. Not just the normal case. Systems that can be restored are systems you can rely on.

We don't generate complexity

The right architecture is the simplest one that meets your requirements. We resist unnecessary tooling, excessive abstraction, and solutions that require perpetual consultant support to maintain.

We write things down

Decisions are documented. Architectures are diagrammed. Configurations are recorded. You own the knowledge—not just the outcome.

We speak executive and technical

We translate between board-level business risk and infrastructure-level technical detail without losing accuracy in either direction. That translation is often the hardest part—and the most valuable.
