About Concise
Concise Consulting Group creates, executes and advises on Information Privacy, Security and Data Governance strategies and activities that create organizational value. We provide Concise Solutions to Complex Problems.
Concise Consulting Group teams with Information Privacy, Security and Data Governance leaders to assist them in understanding and efficiently navigating the expectations placed upon them by internal and external requirements. This enables these leaders to clearly and concisely demonstrate to their executive management and third parties, such as customers or regulators, the extent that the expectations are being met.
The foundation of our approach is to recognize that Information Privacy, Security, and Data Governance are business processes enabled by technology. While specialist skills are needed to execute these processes effectively, the outputs of these processes need to be seen to be generating useful outcomes, not headaches.
We are not a CPA firm and do not offer attest services such as SAS70 certification. Neither are we a legal firm - we do not provide legal advice, although we do collaborate with lawyers who understand information security and privacy issues.
Concise Consulting Group LLC is registered as a Limited Liability Company in Washington. Our headquarters are just outside Seattle.
Skills and Expertise
Our team is comprised of experienced professionals who each have over 10 years of industry experience. Members of our team previously worked at several global risk and security consulting organizations and are active in giving back to the community through involvement on the board of professional associations and creating thought provoking content to challenge the community to improve the way that Security and Privacy are perceived.
Our list of offerings is Concise. We only deliver projects where we have deep expertise and experience. We also believe in certification as one way to confirm a minimum level of knowledge in a subject area. Currently active certifications held by members of our team include:

Project Approach
Our approach to projects is to focus on understanding your strategic objectives and providing guidance that is not only technically correct, but also enables your organization to improve. We aim to help you to structure your compliance and security / privacy programs to enable long term improvements, rather than give you a laundry list of low level audit findings that will distract your team from addressing the issues that matter to you.
