Services
One assessment. One retainer. Systems where they're earned.
The Exposure Assessment is the lead offering, deliverable today for a fixed fee. Systems design and configuration follows only where a finding calls for it.
The Exposure Assessment
The lead offering — deliverable todayA half-day walkthrough of your premises. Structured interviews with your office administrator, your IT provider, and any staff you nominate. A review of vendor terms, system configurations, and publicly available information about the firm.
What you get
A written report with rated findings and a prioritised remediation list, issued within six working days, plus an hour of debrief.
How it works
A fixed fee by practice size — see pricing below. No expenses, no hourly overrun, no change orders.
What it costs
| Practice size | Fee |
|---|---|
| Under 10 staff | $4,500 |
| 10 to 24 staff | $6,500 |
| 25 to 75 staff | $9,500 |
Fixed. No expenses, no hourly overrun, no change orders.
What it does not cover
- Network and endpoint security. Firewalls, endpoint detection, patching, backups. That remains your IT provider's responsibility and we do not compete for it.
- Legal, ethical or regulatory determinations. We identify facts. Whether an arrangement satisfies your professional obligations is a question for your counsel.
- Penetration testing or testing of staff. No system is attacked and no employee is tested.
- Investigation of individuals. No person is investigated, profiled or surveilled.
Most of what an assessment finds costs nothing to fix. We have no commercial interest in those items and recommend you do them regardless.
Ongoing Advisory Retainer
Available today — optionalVendors change, staff turn over, and new tools get adopted quietly between assessments. The retainer keeps the picture current instead of letting it go stale until the next one.
What you get
Ongoing advisory access and periodic review, at a predictable monthly cost.
How it works
From $1,200 a month. Optional, and never a condition of the assessment.
Systems Design & Configuration
Secondary — where a finding calls for itA local model that handles drafting and summarisation with nothing leaving the premises. A gateway that routes requests locally by default. On-premise recording with no vendor access. Private Knowledge & Agentic Discovery — a local system that can search, read, and reason across your own material — is one example of what a systems engagement can include; it remains a bespoke build, not a shelf product.
What you get
A design, specification, and configuration, quoted separately from the assessment.
How it works
VaultScaler designs and specifies. Licensed Nevada contractors carry out any physical installation and invoice you directly — VaultScaler does not sell or supply hardware. You are under no obligation to proceed.
One example: on-premise computer vision
- Every object, individually — draw a boundary around whatever matters.
- Removal — if something leaves its place, you know within seconds.
- Contact — if someone reaches into a zone marked off-limits, you know immediately.
- People — recognise staff and regulars, flag anyone unknown, or run fully anonymous with every face obscured before it's stored.
- A record you can use — every event, timestamped, with an image.
Not sure where to start
Start with the assessment. It produces something useful before anything else changes hands.
A written report, a fixed fee, no system required. That's deliberate — a consultancy is supposed to begin with judgement, not a purchase.
