[Case Study] banSHEE Cybersecurity
Cybersecurity doesn’t have to be scary.
Who We Worked With
Christina's robust career - prior to kicking things off with SBC - includes project management, risk analysis, thorough security control assessments, and the art of penetration testing. What started as a high-stakes ransomware remediation project has evolved into a mission to fortify digital environments against emerging threats.
2024 marked the rise of banSHEE cybersecurity. While everyone else was busy writing LinkedIn posts about diversity in tech, Christina was actually doing something about it. Built on a foundation of integrity (because please, we don't do shady), relentless pursuit of knowledge, and radical inclusivity, banSHEE is shaking up the status quo. Small businesses, consider this your formal invitation to the cyber safety party — cyber defense shouldn't put you to sleep, and with banSHEE, it never will.
How SBC Helped Launch banSHEE Cyber Security
From casual coffee chat to business game-changer—that's how Christina's journey with Small Business Cultivator (SBC) began. One conversation with our digital whiz Erica opened the door to possibilities. And when Christina dove into our assessment, that's when things got real.
Christina brought the cybersecurity brilliance (and trust us, she's got plenty), but between her full-time hustle, PhD pursuits, and family commitments, building a business framework needed reinforcements. That's where SBC's business wizards stepped in, turning banSHEE from a powerful vision into an unstoppable reality.
Together, we didn't just fill in gaps—we built bridges. While Christina focused on keeping cyber threats up at night, we rolled up our sleeves and handled the business backbone. Our community of experts didn't stop at offering advice. SBC provided actionable strategies, streamlined processes, and the kind of support that turns 'someday' dreams into 'right now' reality. Because here's the truth: even the most brilliant entrepreneurs shine brighter with the right support system. And with Christina's expertise paired with SBC's business acumen? That's not only success—that's disruption with style.
