Caldera Cybersecurity Services is a consulting firm dedicated to helping small and mid-sized organizations strengthen their security posture without unnecessary complexity or cost. Founded by Rick Myers, a cybersecurity executive with more than 30 years of experience, Caldera blends strategic leadership with hands-on expertise to guide businesses that often lack dedicated security resources. We operate as a Fractional Chief Information Security Officer (vCISO), providing executive-level direction that fits each client’s unique needs. Our mission is to make security practical, scalable, and aligned with business objectives. By partnering closely with leadership and boards, we deliver strategies that meet regulatory obligations while supporting growth and innovation. Our services include: Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC): Developing policies, leading audits, and ensuring alignment with frameworks such as NIST, PCI-DSS, and GLBA. Incident Response Planning: Creating, testing, and refining plans through tabletop exercises and third-party penetration testing. Security Program Development: Building policies, procedures, and roadmaps that embed a culture of security. Executive & Board Advisory: Presenting clear, actionable reporting on security metrics, risks, and progress. Awareness & Training: Improving security culture through relatable, real-world education programs. Headquartered in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Caldera serves clients nationwide in financial services, software delivery, and nonprofit sectors. Our approach is rooted in clarity and action—we strip away jargon and complexity to provide solutions that teams can understand, adopt, and maintain. At Caldera, we believe cybersecurity should be accessible and empowering. Our goal is simple: to help organizations protect their data, reputation, and operations, enabling them to thrive in a digital world while staying resilient against evolving threats.
