Security insights, practical guides, and industry news from the Outpost team.
Outpost blends easy-to-understand security guidance with expert-led implementation to protect your users & your company.
Need to shore up your security posture, but not sure where to start? Basecamp is Outpost's ground-up security offering that prepares you for investor interest, compliance audits, and other activities that put your business under a magnifying glass.
Forget one size fits all. We learn the ins-and-outs of your operations, culture, and growth trajectory to give recommendations tailored to you.
Based on phase-one intel, we build comprehensive policies, an employee handbook, and a roadmap for long-term security planning.
Set it and forget it works for a rotisserie oven. Use it as a security approach and you are just asking to get burned.
Each year we reassess your program and update it in response to how your business has changed and how your needs have evolved.


Cross your fingers the bad guys don't notice your weak spots, or let Outpost find them first. We test your defenses, identify specific weaknesses, and recommend the best ways to fix them.
No burpees here. Tabletop exercises evaluate how you would respond to emergencies like security incidents or disaster scenarios, with just enough roleplaying spirit to make the simulations immersive and productive.
Collaborate with our experts on a personalized, phase-by-phase plan for improving your posture. Based on your trajectory, resources, and existing systems, we prioritize what to implement, and when.


Outpost is a fresh take on B2B security guidance—a counterbalance to companies who rely on obfuscation and fear-mongering to scare you into signing a contract. At Outpost, we're realistic (and transparent) about the risks you face, how they impact your business, and how we can help.
Outpost provides security guidance to startups and small businesses who want to improve their security posture. Whether you’re being proactive about security, recovering from a breach, or shoring up your defenses in anticipation of a fundraise, we can help you get where you want to be.
The short answer: Enough. Our services are affordable enough to be accessible, but not so low that you have to worry about cutting corners; we always look to balance cost and value with our recommendations. Whether you want to start with a limited collaboration or go all-in right away, we can build a package for you. Schedule time with our team today to get the ball rolling.
We design every project based on your goals, so no two Outpost engagements are identical. Our services are designed to be both flexible and ongoing. Like an extension of your internal teams, you can engage with Outpost as your needs, requirements, and other factors change. Timelines ultimately depend on your existing security posture and the scope of our collaboration—but the ballpark for most projects, from kickoff to completion, is about 6 months.
Security is a journey, not a final destination. No security provider can guarantee 100% security (and anyone who says they can is selling snake oil). What Outpost can do is minimize your risk of breach and minimize the impact of a potential incident based on your company’s risk tolerance and appetite.
