The Person Behind the Process

Hi, I’m Kevin Rivera.

I didn't start this consulting business to be another "big firm" consultant who shows up once a year. I started it because I saw how much pressure community banks are under—and how hard it is to find high-level GRC expertise that actually fits a local bank’s budget and culture.

In the Trenches, Not Just the Books

I’ve spent the last 6 years working in GRC within financial institutions, most recently serving as a VP Information Security Manager. I know exactly what it’s like to manage a security program when resources are tight and examiners are knocking on the door. I’ve lived through the audits, the policy rewrites, and the vendor reviews, so I don’t just give you advice—I give you solutions that actually work in a real-world bank environment.

Expertise You Can Trust

I’ve backed up my years in the field with industry-standard certifications to ensure my clients are getting the best possible guidance:

  • CISM (Certified Information Security Manager)

  • Security+

  • CompTIA certified

Local Roots

My family and I call the Tampa Bay area home (you can usually find us in the Ruskin/Riverview area).I’m a local partner invested in our community’s financial health. I believe that small banks are the backbone of our area, and my goal is to make sure your compliance and security are so solid that you can stay focused on what you do best: serving our neighbors.
