Financial Services IT. Serving the Southeast.
Security-first managed IT for registered investment advisers, family offices, and community financial institutions. Reg S-P readiness, GLBA Safeguards mapping, and evidence your compliance officer can hand to an examiner.
Definition
An IT partner for financial services firms manages technology so that security, availability, and compliance evidence are produced continuously: protected client data, monitored systems, documented vendor oversight, tested recovery, and incident response procedures that satisfy SEC Regulation S-P and the GLBA Safeguards Rule. The output is not just uptime. It is the paper trail that keeps an examination short.
A written, tested incident response program, 30-day customer notification procedures, and the documentation trail the amended rule requires covered firms to maintain.
Administrative, technical, and physical safeguards mapped to your written information security program, with control evidence collected as we operate, not reconstructed at exam time.
Due diligence files, monitoring records, and breach notification terms for the third parties that touch client data. The amended Reg S-P makes this oversight your obligation. We make it your routine.
EDR on every endpoint, MFA on every account, email security, encrypted devices, and employee awareness training tuned to wire fraud and impersonation schemes targeting advisory firms.
Family member PII, estate plans, trust structures, and portfolio information protected with institutional controls and a small, named team. No rotating cast of strangers in your systems.
Advisors are already summarizing client information in AI tools. We surface it with the anonymous AI Shadow Survey, then apply Microsoft Purview controls so client data never trains someone else's model.
Who We Serve
At most RIAs, the Chief Compliance Officer is the de facto IT decision maker. We build every report, policy, and piece of evidence so a CCO can answer an examiner directly from our materials.
The Reg S-P Gap, Closed
| Amended Reg S-P Requirement | What Evolv IT Delivers |
|---|---|
| Written incident response program | Documented detection, containment, and recovery procedures, tested with your team, maintained as systems change |
| 30-day customer breach notification | Notification workflows, contact data hygiene, and decision documentation for when notice is or is not required |
| Service provider oversight | Vendor inventories, due diligence records, and monitoring evidence for every third party touching customer information |
| Compliance recordkeeping | Retained records of policies, incidents, investigations, and notifications, organized for examination response |
Larger covered entities were required to comply by December 3, 2025. Smaller entities by June 3, 2026. The SEC has stated Reg S-P compliance is an examination priority in fiscal year 2026. If your firm has not operationalized these requirements, the window to do it before an exam is the window you are in right now.
