Cybersecurity starting point
Get a quick view of your cybersecurity readiness.
centrexIT's official two-minute assessment asks eight questions across core security practices and returns an instant readiness score with specific recommendations. The scorecard itself requires no email. Organizations that want a deeper review can separately submit their details for a personalized security plan.
Where centrexIT fits
Practical IT support for organizations with real operating constraints.
centrexIT's official industry pages emphasize regulated and operationally complex organizations across San Diego and Southern California. The common fit is a business that wants infrastructure, cybersecurity, cloud, and governance planned as one operating model rather than split among disconnected vendors.
Regulated organizations
Life sciences, healthcare, financial services, and defense contractors can bring industry-specific security, documentation, and compliance requirements into the same IT conversation.
Distributed, client-facing teams
Professional services, nonprofits, construction firms, and other multi-site teams can address secure collaboration, remote work, networking, and predictable support together.
Operationally sensitive environments
Long-term care and manufacturing organizations can plan around uptime, connected facilities, business continuity, and systems that cannot become a daily distraction.

Ascend selection guidance (not partner commitments)
Questions to ask before choosing centrexIT
- Is the need an ongoing managed IT, security, or cloud operating model, a project, or strategy and support—and what users, sites, systems, and response expectations are in scope?
- Which security, compliance, continuity, Microsoft, Azure, and governance requirements must be assessed before a service plan is proposed?
- If CUI readiness is the issue, is the need a scoped enclave and readiness conversation or broader managed IT support, and who owns assessment responsibilities?
This is Ascend's buyer-selection guidance, not a statement of centrexIT's commitments. Confirm final suitability, scope, responsibilities, and terms directly in the proposed engagement.
