Geo-redundant hosting on enterprise infrastructure we operate
CMMC + GxP
CMMC/NIST 800-171 for defense, FDA/GxP for life sciences

San Diego runs on three world-class industries at once. It's home to the largest concentration of naval forces in the world and the defense and cyber contractors that support them. It's one of the top biotech and genomics clusters in the country — Illumina, Scripps Research, the Salk Institute, UCSD, and hundreds of life-sciences companies along the Torrey Pines and Sorrento Valley mesa. And it's the birthplace of the modern wireless industry, with Qualcomm and a deep semiconductor and connectivity ecosystem around it. That means an unusual density of regulated work and extraordinarily valuable IP.
Each of those worlds answers to something exacting — CMMC 2.0, NIST 800-171, and ITAR for defense, FDA quality systems and GxP (21 CFR Part 11) for life sciences, HIPAA for healthcare and genomic data, and California's CCPA/CPRA across all of it. 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, the FDA, and your partners expect.
We support businesses across San Diego County — downtown, Sorrento Valley, UTC, Carlsbad, 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 California's fire and earthquake 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.
Few metros carry this much regulated work and valuable IP in one place. 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 and ITAR for defense and FDA/GxP for life sciences, San Diego runs on some of the most demanding compliance in the country. We carry it — the controls, evidence, and IP protection assessors, the FDA, and your partners require — 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 California.
Remote-first for speed, with local technicians across San Diego County for hands-on work — and DR designed for a region that has lived through major wildfires, pioneered power shutoffs, and sits near active faults.
Tell us your stack and priorities — we return scope, ownership, and a plan, at no cost.
A complete outsourced IT department for San Diego businesses — or a co-managed extension of the team you already have.
A 24×7 security operation and the compliance work San Diego'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 San Diego 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 San Diego environment and the compliance you carry — CMMC 2.0 and ITAR for defense, FDA/GxP for life sciences, HIPAA and CCPA — at no cost.
A clear roadmap prioritized by the assessments, validations, and IP protections that matter most, with resilience built in for California's fire, quake, and power-shutoff risk.
We secure and stabilize first — identity, access control, backups with a copy well outside California, endpoints, and monitoring — and stand up the evidence assessors and the FDA expect.
24×7 operations, a named team, and quarterly reviews that keep you audit-ready and outage-ready.
On-site support across San Diego County — downtown, the Sorrento Valley and UTC life-sciences corridor, North County, and the wider metro.
Yes. We're remote-first for speed, but we dispatch engineers across San Diego County — downtown, Sorrento Valley, UTC, Carlsbad, and Chula Vista — for hands-on work like installs, cabling, hardware, and new-office builds.
Yes — around the world's largest naval concentration, it's a core San Diego engagement. We assess against NIST 800-171, close the gaps, protect CUI, build your System Security Plan and POA&M, handle ITAR export-control requirements, and run the monitoring assessors expect for CMMC 2.0.
Yes. In the Torrey Pines and Sorrento Valley cluster, we align IT and security to FDA quality systems and GxP, protect research IP and genomic data, and deliver HIPAA-ready controls — designed so validation and quality systems aren't disrupted.
Backups run locally for fast restores and are automatically replicated to a second region well outside California — clear of the state's wildfire, seismic, and Public Safety Power Shutoff risk. So a fire, quake, or planned outage 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 619, 858, and 760 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 San Diego and San Diego County. Talk to a senior engineer, not a call center.
