IT consulting

START HERE

Not sure whether you need a website, cloud infrastructure, or just a second opinion? KTS advises on technology strategy first — the right fix (web, cloud, or something else) follows from there.

IT AUDIT

Technology assessment

A clear-eyed review of your current setup — what's working, what's not, and what's costing you.

  • Infrastructure & systems review
  • Security & compliance gaps
  • Written recommendations
COST OPTIMIZATION

Cut what you don't need

Most businesses overspend on cloud and software without realizing it.

  • Cloud bill review (AWS/Azure)
  • Tool & vendor consolidation
  • Right-sizing recommendations
STRATEGY & PLANNING

A roadmap, not just a fix

Vendor selection, disaster recovery planning, and technology decisions made before they become emergencies.

  • Vendor & tool selection
  • Backup & disaster recovery planning
  • Growth-stage tech roadmap

Cyber & information security

SIZED TO YOUR RISK

Protecting your business from digital threats — risk assessments, monitoring, and hardening sized to what a small business actually faces, not enterprise-scale overhead.

RISK ASSESSMENTS

Risk assessments & hardening

Full-spectrum reviews of your environment, with prioritized, actionable fixes — not a stack of findings you'll never read.

  • Vulnerability & configuration review
  • Prioritized remediation plan
  • Compliance-readiness check
IDENTITY & ACCESS

Identity & access management

MFA rollout and access-control cleanup so the right people have the right access — and no one else does.

  • MFA & password policy rollout
  • User access audits & cleanup
  • Least-privilege enforcement
MONITORING & RESPONSE

Monitoring & response

Ongoing monitoring and incident response support sized to what a small business actually needs — not enterprise overhead.

  • Uptime & security monitoring setup
  • Incident response planning
  • Ongoing alerting & review

Usually 1–2 weeks. You see drafts along the way, not just a final reveal.

03
