Portfolios and plans, loan files and policy renewals, handled in the office, from home and across the table from your clients.
What your regulators expect
s90 manages IT for independent investment advisers, broker-dealers, family offices, mortgage lenders and insurance agencies in south Orange County. We run your systems end to end and send a Technology Posture Report every quarter, plus a Compliance Posture Report for each rule that applies to you, such as SEC Regulation S-P, FINRA, GLBA or the FTC Safeguards Rule.
Does this sound familiar?
Client data on every laptop and phone, software bills that grow every year, and staff trying AI tools nobody has vetted. Someone handles your IT, but when a client, an examiner or your partners ask whether it's secure, whether you're paying for the right things, or where client information is going, the honest answer is a guess.
I'm trusting it on faith.
I couldn't show it if someone asked.
Most firms have someone handling their IT. Tickets come in, tickets get closed, and nobody asks whether the firm is safer, spending well or able to show its work. Having someone handle your IT isn't the same as having your IT managed.
Proof before the examiner asks
Your clients trust you with their money, their plans and their risk. Your reputation rests on security and reliability, so your IT should be able to prove it. We hold ourselves to the standard you hold for your clients: keep you ahead of what's changing so an exam or a new rule never catches you off guard, and work alongside you toward the goals you're building.

How switching works
If it's in the table below, we already support it. We coordinate the switch with your previous provider, your staff and your software vendors, and your handoff happens after hours, so Monday looks like Friday.
01 · Baseline
Before anything changes, we review your setup and give you your Baseline Posture Score, a score out of 100 taken before we take over. You see where you stand, and exactly what we're taking on.
02 · Handoff
We coordinate with your current provider and cut over when it's not disruptive. We schedule your handoff around the dates that you can't move.
03 · Ownership
Support, security, maintenance and planning are ours. Every quarter your Technology Posture Report arrives, and your Technology Adviser walks you through it: what changed, what it means for you, and what we recommend next.

Everyday
Before you switch
You get a dated plan before anything changes. Tools are swapped one at a time, and your staff are trained on anything new before they need it.
What's at stake
Wasted spend, aging equipment, no AI guardrails.
Ransomware, exposed data, one bad email.
When someone owns your IT
Every device, license and login accounted for. Software spend you can see and control. Recovery plans that have actually been tested. Support around the clock, in your office and through self-service for everyday requests. And proof in hand that's never more than three months old, so when a client or an examiner asks, the answer is already on your desk. You know your IT is taken care of.
What your regulators expect
Your clients' financial information comes with rules attached: how it's protected, who can see it, and what happens if it's ever exposed (SEC Regulation S-P, FINRA rules, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and the FTC Safeguards Rule). Which ones apply depends on what your firm does, and we work that out with you before anything is set up. From there, we provide current evidence that your controls are in place and working. The person in charge of compliance at your firm decides whether you're compliant.
Bundle discounts available.
A deficiency letter after an exam, a breach you have to report to clients, or a claim denied over a safeguard you said you had but couldn't show.
One question to ask yourself
In 30 minutes, we talk through your setup and you leave knowing which plan fits.
