Guiding Organizations Toward Safer Futures

Compass IT Compliance is a trusted nationwide leader in IT security, compliance, and risk management, serving organizations of all sizes across various industries. Established in 2010 by William DePalma and Jerry Hughes, our mission is to partner with organizations to reduce their information security risks while delivering unparalleled customer service.

With nearly half of our team being veterans, we are committed to upholding the highest standards of quality and excellence. Unlike traditional “pass or fail” auditors, Compass takes a collaborative approach, helping organizations identify vulnerabilities and foster a culture of security awareness. Choosing Compass means gaining access to the collective expertise of a team with decades of real-world experience, complemented by numerous industry certifications and accolades.

Our Virtual CISO professionals offer a blend of technical competence and adaptability, seamlessly integrating into your organization and providing tailored strategic guidance. Meanwhile, our Compass Cyber Guard team, comprising ethical hackers, specializes in simulating real-world attack scenarios to strengthen your defenses against emerging threats. Every solution we offer is fully customizable and scalable to address your organization’s unique challenges. Unlike competitors that spread themselves thin across multiple disciplines, we focus exclusively on IT security and compliance—it’s what we live and breathe every day.

Despite our growth since 2010, we remain steadfast in our commitment to building meaningful customer relationships. Our founders, Bill and Jerry, continue to lead from the front, responding to questions and staying engaged with our clients. This dedication to delivering superior value is the foundation on which Compass IT Compliance was built and continues to thrive today.
