Advisory Services That Focus on What Matters Most

Elbery & Burns provides senior-led, AI-accelerated advisory to growth companies navigating data, risk, compliance, and vendor complexity. We don’t just check boxes, we help you make high-trust, high-impact decisions with clarity and confidence.

Risk Strategy & Data Governance

We help organizations align risk with growth by building governance frameworks that protect data, reduce ambiguity, and improve decision-making. From intellectual property to identity systems, we give risk a business context.

Problems We Solve:

  • Fragmented or unclear governance across teams
  • Sensitive data exposed to over-permissioned roles
  • Poor alignment between risk, compliance, and innovation
  • No clear mapping between controls and business outcomes

What Makes Us Different:

  • We go beyond maturity scores and we clarify what actually matters
  • We bridge tech, business, and regulatory layers
  • Our work integrates cleanly with audits, boards, and engineering teams

Regulatory Readiness

Whether you’re facing a customer audit or building toward SOC 2, HIPAA, or PCI-DSS, we help you get ready and stay ready. We interpret requirements in your context and eliminate noise.

Problems We Solve:

  • Inconsistent policies and ad hoc compliance approaches
  • Missed deadlines or failed attestations
  • Unclear audit ownership and disjointed documentation
  • Costly over-engineering from generalized frameworks

What Makes Us Different:

  • We tailor recommendations to the actual regulation + risk profile
  • No platform lock-in & we’re tech-agnostic
  • Built-in readiness for recurring audits and investor diligence

Vendor Risk Management

We help you rationalize, document, and manage risk across your third-party ecosystem. Whether you’re dealing with shadow IT, poorly scoped contracts, or policy misalignment – we help you get control.

Problems We Solve:

  • Unclear vendor inventory or responsibility
  • Risky SaaS tools adopted without oversight
  • Inconsistent assessments or lack of third-party policies
  • Compliance friction when onboarding vendors

What Makes Us Different:

  • We provide realistic vendor tiering aligned to risk
  • We embed vendor data in your policy and control framework
  • We help clean up legacy vendor sprawl while respecting speed

Fractional Strategic Advisory

We offer retained or as-needed guidance at the executive level whether you need a strategic roadmap, board reporting, or a sounding board for critical security or compliance decisions.

Problems We Solve:

  • No in-house CISO, CRO, or Governance leader
  • Difficulty translating technical risk into business language
  • Board and investor questions without a clear owner
  • Security or compliance decisions made reactively

What Makes Us Different:

  • You work directly with senior advisors
  • We act as embedded partners — not detached consultants
  • We bring empathy, context, and accountability
