Guardian Lumen

Discovery & Profiling

Lumen builds its picture of your environment three ways: read-only connections to the cloud platforms and security tools you already use, external scans of your internet-facing footprint, and a structured interview led by your Guardian analyst. From those inputs, Lumen generates your Cyber Profile: a structured, living data model that captures your people, processes, and technology attributes and serves as the foundation for all downstream analysis.

Your industry vertical, regulatory obligations, operational risk tolerance, and cyber insurance requirements are layered into the profile so every assessment is calibrated to your business.

Multi-Framework Assessment

Lumen maps your posture across NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF 2.0), ISO 27001:2022, CIS Controls v8.1, CMMC, HIPAA, SOC 2, and additional sector-specific standards. Each control domain is scored and gap-analyzed: what you have in place, what is partially implemented, and where critical exposures exist. Lumen's AI follows the same method an experienced auditor would: interview, map to frameworks and controls, and collect evidence.

The output is an overall security posture score with control-level detail.

Continuous Analysis

Lumen connects to the security tools you already run, including your cloud platforms, endpoint protection, and vulnerability scanners, and brings their findings into a single view. Each finding is tied to the specific asset it affects, so you can see exactly where exposure sits across your environment.

As those tools report new vulnerabilities or configuration changes, Lumen updates your findings and posture score, so gaps surface as they appear rather than at your next audit. Standards monitoring keeps your assessments current as frameworks evolve.

Remediation Planning

Every gap generates a prioritized action item assigned by risk severity, framework mapping, and business impact. Tasks are ranked so your team focuses first on the actions that deliver the greatest security improvement.

Lumen surfaces templated policies, procedures, and control implementation guidance to accelerate remediation. Tasks can be assigned to internal owners or Guardian analysts with due dates, accountability tracking, and escalation workflows.

Progress Tracking & Reporting

Lumen provides real-time visibility into compliance progress across all active frameworks. The platform tracks and stores evidence of completed controls, making audit preparation a structured, repeatable process.

Reporting includes a real-time posture dashboard with framework-by-framework status, compliance evidence collection, pre-formatted reports aligned to cyber insurance underwriter requirements, and executive reporting that translates posture data into business-relevant narratives for board presentation or regulatory submission.

Lumen's discovery process is agentless and connects with read-only access. It runs across cloud, on-premises, and remote endpoints without requiring changes to your existing infrastructure. No conflict with your current IT team, MSP, or existing security tools.

Lumen fills a specific gap: continuous, multi-framework compliance posture management with analyst-led interpretation and remediation planning. Your IT team maintains infrastructure. Your MSP manages tools. Lumen measures your security and compliance posture against the frameworks your business is accountable to, keeps that measurement current, and makes sure you're always ready for an auditor, an underwriter, or a board question.

Many organizations assume no framework applies to them. Usually one does. If you accept card payments, PCI DSS applies. If you handle health information as a healthcare provider, health plan, or business associate, HIPAA applies, whatever your size. Customer contracts and cyber insurers increasingly expect a recognized framework too. And if a breach ever ends up in court, having followed one can matter. In Texas, it can protect businesses with fewer than 250 employees from punitive damages.
