Independent Cybersecurity Consultant
An independent cybersecurity consultant combining hands-on expertise, academic authority and a full ecosystem of assessment and compliance platforms.
The problems this solves
Not a single pair of hands — a complete ecosystem of assessment, senior consulting and compliance management that takes you from "where do we stand?" to "we are audit-ready."
Fragmented advice
Point solutions and one-off advice rarely add up to a coherent, sustainable security program.
No single owner
Security spread across vendors and tools leaves nobody accountable for the whole picture.
Compliance sprawl
Multiple frameworks and regulations create overlapping, duplicated effort without a unifying strategy.
Hard to verify expertise
It is difficult to know whether advice is grounded in real, current, rigorous expertise.
One connected ecosystem, end to end
I combine hands-on consulting with two platforms — CyberHealth360 for assessment and ComplianceHub360 for GRC — backed by an academic teaching role that keeps the practice rigorous.
CyberHealth360
An automated assessment platform that benchmarks your current security posture and surfaces the gaps that matter most.
Sandy Smajic Consulting
Senior advisory that turns findings into a prioritized, board-ready roadmap and implements the controls that protect the business.
ComplianceHub360
A GRC platform that keeps policies, evidence and audits in one place so your program stays continuously audit-ready.
More than a freelancer — a security ecosystem
Choosing a cybersecurity consultant means choosing a partner you can trust with the things that matter most. What I offer is not a single pair of hands, but a complete ecosystem: consulting expertise, academic authority, automated assessment capabilities and compliance management platforms.
That ecosystem is anchored by two platforms — CyberHealth360 for instant security posture assessment, and ComplianceHub360 for managing compliance frameworks end to end. Together with hands-on consulting, they take organizations from "where do we stand?" all the way to "we are audit-ready."
Services I provide
I work across the full breadth of information security and compliance, tailoring engagements to each organization's sector, size and maturity.
- ISO 27001 implementation and certification support
- NIS2 and DORA regulatory compliance

Expertise you can verify
Beyond consulting, I serve as an external lecturer in IT Security, teaching the next generation of professionals across information security, risk management, compliance, cloud security and identity management.
This academic role keeps my practice current and rigorous, and it gives clients confidence that the guidance they receive is grounded in both established principle and real-world experience.
