Who we are
PRAETORSEC (pronounced PRAY-tor-sek) is a boutique CMMC readiness consultancy for small and mid-size defense suppliers. We get you C3PAO-ready with an evidence-first, assessor-aware approach that fits your real environment.
Why “PRAETOR”?
In ancient Rome, a praetor was a trusted magistrate charged with command and judgment. We chose the name to reflect trusted stewardship—clear decisions, disciplined process, and accountability for outcomes. Security with judgment.
