CMMC, NIST 800-171 & cleared-work security
Baltimore sits next door to the center of American cyber. Fort Meade is home to the National Security Agency and US Cyber Command, and the corridor between Baltimore and Washington holds one of the densest concentrations of cyber, intelligence, and defense contractors in the country. Alongside that sits Johns Hopkins — a global leader in medicine and research — the busy Port of Baltimore, and a growing biotech and life-sciences sector. It's a market built on cleared work, protected research, and critical logistics.
Each of those worlds answers to something exacting — CMMC 2.0, NIST 800-171, and cleared work for the cyber and defense base, FISMA for federal programs, HIPAA and research-data controls for Hopkins and its ecosystem, and C-TPAT for the port. Most local IT shops can't carry that weight. intSignal runs managed IT, a 24×7 security operation, cloud, and business communications under one roof — and produces the evidence assessors, IRBs, and contracting officers expect.
We support businesses across Baltimore City and Baltimore, Howard, and Anne Arundel counties and the wider metro. Senior engineers own your account, and because we operate our own geo-redundant infrastructure across three regions, we can place workloads where performance, cost, and compliance line up — and keep your recovery copy well outside the Chesapeake storm zone.
The services where being local actually changes the outcome — the region your data lives in, latency, on-site speed, the local climate, and a local phone number.
Cyber, research medicine, and critical logistics define this market. We lead every engagement with the obligation that matters to you.
Instead of juggling a helpdesk, a security firm, a cloud reseller, and a phone company, one team owns it all. When something breaks, there's one number to call and one team responsible — with real stake in keeping your business.
Between CMMC for the Fort Meade cyber base and HIPAA and research-data controls for the Hopkins ecosystem, Baltimore runs on demanding compliance. We carry both — run by senior engineers rather than a scripted call center.
We run geo-redundant enterprise hosting across three regions, so we can place each workload where performance, cost, and compliance line up — public, private, or hybrid — and keep your recovery copy well outside the Mid-Atlantic.
Remote-first for speed, with local technicians across the Baltimore metro for hands-on work — and DR designed for a region of nor'easters, hurricane remnants, and tidal flooding.
Tell us your stack and priorities — we return scope, ownership, and a plan, at no cost.
A complete outsourced IT department for Baltimore businesses — or a co-managed extension of the team you already have.
A 24×7 security operation and the compliance work Baltimore's regulated industries actually need — run by senior analysts, not an alert forwarder.
Public, private, or hybrid — placed where performance, cost, and compliance line up, on infrastructure we run across three regions.
Put data and AI to work — automation, analytics, and vision that improve how Baltimore teams operate.
Replace an aging phone system with a cloud platform that travels with your team — voice, texting, video, and mobile, with AI built in.
The software that runs it all — our own security, network, and operations platforms, available managed or co-managed.
A short, low-risk path from first call to a running, monitored environment.
We map your Baltimore environment and the compliance you carry — CMMC and cleared work for cyber, FISMA for federal, HIPAA and research controls for Hopkins-area work — at no cost.
A clear roadmap prioritized by the assessments, audits, and research requirements that matter most, with resilience built in for Chesapeake storms.
We secure and stabilize first — identity, access control, backups outside the Mid-Atlantic, endpoints, and monitoring — and stand up the evidence assessors and IRBs expect.
24×7 operations, a named team, and quarterly reviews that keep you assessment-ready and storm-ready.
On-site support across Baltimore City and Baltimore, Howard, and Anne Arundel counties — the wider metro and the Baltimore-Washington corridor.
Yes. We're remote-first for speed, but we dispatch engineers across Baltimore City and Baltimore, Howard, and Anne Arundel counties — Columbia, Towson, Annapolis, and the Fort Meade area — for hands-on work like installs, cabling, hardware, and new-office builds.
Yes — next to the center of American cyber, it's our core engagement. We assess against NIST 800-171, close the gaps, protect CUI, build your SSP and POA&M, handle ITAR, and run the monitoring cleared work and contracting officers require for CMMC 2.0.
Yes. We deliver HIPAA- and HITRUST-aligned IT and security, protect research data and grants, and support IRB and export-control requirements — with audit-ready documentation.
Backups run locally for fast restores and are automatically replicated to a second region well outside the Mid-Atlantic — clear of coastal storms, tidal flooding, and the regional grid. So a storm or flood can't take out both your systems and your recovery copy.
Yes. Our UCaaS platform is a full cloud phone system — calls, business texting, video meetings, a contact center, and business cellular — with AI transcription and IVR. We provision local 410, 443, and 667 numbers, port your existing lines, and you can keep desk phones, go fully mobile, or both.
From small and mid-sized organizations — roughly 20 to 500 staff — to their compliance-heavy suppliers, plus multi-site and growing companies. Our security operation and cloud scale up cleanly as you grow and add locations.
Serving Baltimore and Baltimore City. Talk to a senior engineer, not a call center.
