Built to protect the people the big firms ignore.

Personal Bastion was founded on a simple observation: families and small businesses face the same cyber threats as large corporations — but they don’t have an IT department, a security team, or a six-figure budget to deal with them.

Personal Bastion is a Wisconsin-based cybersecurity consultancy built to fill that gap. We bring enterprise-level knowledge to the people who need it most: the local business owner, the family with smart home devices, the home office worker handling sensitive client data.

“You deserve security that’s personal, affordable, and actually explained in plain English.”
