Critical Solutions, LLC specializes in providing cyber security services to the Federal Government. As a small business, we work as a tight-knit, cohesive unit to adapt to and defend our clients against the ever changing threat landscape.
With cyberterrorism being as ubiquitous as it is nebulous, the stakes have never been higher. According to the Department of Homeland Security's United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US-CERT), in 2012 alone there was a 68% increase in cyber incidents involving Federal agencies, critical infrastructure, and the Department's industry partners. Motivations for attacks - whether they be foreign governments targeting intellectual property, lone hackers seeking notoriety, social activists trying to send a message, or criminal organizations pursuing financial gain - are as varied as the means by which they are carried out.
