Milestone - Built for outcomes, not billable hours

Milestone is an AI-native advisory operating system, built to provide a smarter and stronger alternative to the obsolete "big-4" advisory model.
Traditional cybersecurity advisory is slow, expensive, and built on broken principles:
more juniors, more slides, more billable hours - and less real impact.
Milestone was built to end that era.

We are an AI-native cybersecurity advisory company designed from first principles to outperform Big-4 style consulting in the age of AI, cloud, and autonomous attackers.

What We Actually Do
We turn overwhelming security noise into clear, defensible executive decisions.
By combining senior operators (not juniors) with a proprietary AI-driven advisory engine, Milestone delivers in weeks what traditional firms take months to produce - with greater depth, accountability, and trust.
No bloated teams.
No slide factories.
No theater.

Why This Matters Now

• Attackers move at machine speed
• AI is outpacing governance
• Regulators expect answers, not narratives
• Boards want clarity, not frameworks

Yet most enterprises are still buying cybersecurity advice designed for 2010.

Where We Engage

• NIST CSF cybersecurity posture and maturity assessments – End-to-end evaluation of security controls, risks, and gaps across IT, cloud, data, and operational environments, mapped to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework.
• AI governance, AI risk, and AI security assessments (NIST, ISO) – Assessment of AI systems and usage, including governance structures, model risks, technical controls, and alignment with emerging AI regulations and standards.
• * Security strategy, prioritization, and multi-year roadmaps – Definition of practical, execution-ready security strategies and prioritized roadmaps aligned to business objectives, risk appetite, and available resources.
• Privacy and data protection advisory – Review of data flows, privacy controls, and compliance with data protection regulations, including gap analysis and remediation recommendations.
• Cloud security architecture and configuration reviews – Detailed review of cloud architectures and configurations, focusing on identity and access management, network segmentation, data protection, logging, and misconfiguration risks.
• GRC, risk management, and regulatory readiness support – Design and assessment of governance structures, policies, controls, and risk management processes to support audits and regulatory requirements.
• Third-party and supply-chain security assessments – Assessment of vendor security posture, contractual and technical controls, and supply-chain risk exposure.
• Additional tailored services.

Our Belief

The future of cybersecurity consulting is not bigger firms.
It’s a small team of top experts + AI-native advisory engine
Milestone delivers fewer people, fewer hours, fewer slides - and far better outcomes.
If you still believe cybersecurity consulting should scale by adding people, we’re probably not for you.
If you believe it should scale by adding intelligence, let’s talk.

Prominent Case Study

A prominent case study we present involves a large, highly regulated enterprise facing increasing regulatory pressure, rapid cloud expansion, and growing AI adoption - while struggling to translate vast amounts of security data into clear, actionable decisions.

Milestone was engaged to help executive leadership see the forest for the trees.
Despite extensive existing documentation, tools, and assessments, risk insights were fragmented and difficult to connect into a coherent picture.

We conducted a deep, end-to-end cybersecurity analysis across governance, cloud, AI usage, and third-party risk, delivering a ~250-page deep-dive report that connected technical findings, process gaps, and business impact into a single, decision-ready narrative.

The engagement identified the 10 most critical strategic security gaps requiring leadership attention, each supported by evidence, impact analysis, and prioritized remediation paths.
The work was completed in record time and at approximately 25% of the cost of comparable Big-4 engagements, enabling faster, more confident executive decision-making.
