Security Help Built for Small Business Reality
NextLayerSec was built to make practical cybersecurity more accessible to small businesses. The focus is simple: assess the current environment, harden the controls that matter, and keep improving security over time.
Our Founder
NextLayerSec LLC was founded by Matthew S. Levorson in Bismarck, North Dakota. With a deep background in security practice, Matthew started NextLayerSec to fill the gap between businesses trying to manage cybersecurity alone and large MSSPs that are too expensive or complex for small businesses.
