Clear Ridge Defense

Clear Ridge Defense is an IT firm that provides cybersecurity, intelligence & risk analysis services to federal and commercial clients. The job it does: assessing, monitoring and responding to security threats on your behalf.

The natural audience is companies without a full security team. They also list Consulting, Cyber Security and Software Engineering, so expect those to show up in the feature set. They are a small team, 11 to 50 people, which usually shapes who they work with. Small vendors mean quick answers and real influence on the roadmap, but check who covers support when someone is out.

Clear Ridge Defense is based in Baltimore, Maryland and founded in 2015. Their site is clridge.com.

Before you commit, look at response times, what is included in monitoring, and reporting. Ask for a trial on your own data, not a canned demo.

If you have worked with Clear Ridge Defense, tell the next buyer what you paid and what surprised you. That is the part of this page we cannot write.
