Question 1

What exactly does Silent Sentry do?

Accepted Answer

We are a vendor-neutral technology advisory and brokerage. We assess your environment, design the right solution architecture, evaluate 400+ suppliers on your behalf, negotiate contracts, and stay engaged through deployment and beyond — across cybersecurity, cloud, AI, networking, communications, and IoT.

Question 2

How much do your advisory services cost?

Accepted Answer

Nothing. Our compensation comes from the supplier you ultimately select — the same way an insurance broker works. You pay the same (often less, thanks to our negotiating leverage) as you would going direct, and you gain an expert advocate at no cost.

Question 3

Are you biased toward specific vendors?

Accepted Answer

No. We are supplier-agnostic by design. Because we can source from 400+ providers, our only incentive is a solution that actually fits your requirements, budget, and compliance mandates — not a sales quota for any single vendor.

Question 4

Do you replace our internal IT team or MSP?

Accepted Answer

No — we make them stronger. We act as an extension of your team for strategy, sourcing, and negotiation, freeing your staff from vendor research and sales calls. Many of our engagements are brought to us by internal IT leaders and MSPs themselves.

Question 5

Which compliance frameworks do you support?

Accepted Answer

We architect solutions aligned to NIST 800-53, CMMC, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS, with deep experience in state government and defense-sector requirements. Compliance mandates are captured in our intake process and drive every recommendation we make.

Question 6

How does the engagement process work?

Accepted Answer

Five steps: Discover (assess your environment and objectives), Design (defense-first architecture), Negotiate (supplier evaluation and pricing), Deploy (project oversight through go-live), and Optimize (ongoing lifecycle support and reviews).

Question 7

What size organizations do you work with?

Accepted Answer

From growing mid-market companies to state agencies and federal-sector contractors. If technology decisions carry real budget, risk, or compliance weight in your organization, we can add value.

Question 8

What happens after I submit the intake form?

Accepted Answer

You receive an immediate confirmation email. Our advisory practice reviews your details and contacts you via your preferred method — typically within one business day — to schedule a confidential, no-obligation strategy assessment.
