Cybersecurity4biz LLC is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned small business dedicated to helping solopreneurs and micro businesses build secure, compliant foundations they can feel confident about.
Founder Todd Mitchell is a retired U.S. Navy cybersecurity leader with over 30 years of experience protecting confidential and sensitive information. After earning a Master’s in Cyber Security Policy and supporting high-level government and defense initiatives, Todd recognized that small businesses were often left without affordable, practical cybersecurity guidance. He made it his mission to close that gap.
Beyond client work, Todd is deeply involved in the business community. He serves as the Alignable Ambassador for the local Alignable Alliance of Southwest New Mexico and mentors other Ambassadors across the platform on how to start, grow, and sustain thriving Alliances. He believes networking is built on KNOW, LIKE, TRUST relationships — because referrals don’t happen without trust, and trust doesn’t happen without connection.
Todd is also an active Alignable Group Leader for the Cyber-security & Technology Group, the Business and Parenting Collaborative, and the Veteran Business Owners group. He regularly brings business owners together for virtual, in-person, and live events designed to foster meaningful relationships, community support, and professional growth.
As a volunteer educator and public speaker, Todd teaches prevention-focused cybersecurity. His approach emphasizes building a cyber-safe culture so businesses and families aren’t relying solely on monitoring tools or hoping insurance will save the day. He focuses on the human behaviors that create vulnerability — and how simple, structured changes can dramatically improve security.
He hosts the Cybersecurity Roundtable for Small Businesses (Real Talk, No Tech Jargon) on the fourth Thursday of each month: https://www.alignable.com/groups/ask-smb-owners...
He also frequently speaks at networking groups, webinars, seminars, panel discussions, podcasts, and community events on topics ranging from small business cybersecurity to helping parents and teens stay safe online.
At Cybersecurity4biz, cybersecurity isn’t about fear. It’s about clarity, culture, and confidence.
The inspiration for Cybersecurity4biz came when Todd was in charge of designing software for the US Marine Corps Command and Control and implementing cybersecurity for the Defense Department. A friend’s small business suffered data loss (a DJ got hacked and lost all his music), and Todd was asked to find someone to help him. After searching everywhere Todd realized solopreneurs and small businesses had no access to affordable cybersecurity resources. Despite calling dozens of companies, Todd found no one willing to work with businesses with fewer than 250 computers.
Understanding that most small businesses can’t afford or don’t need enterprise-level solutions, Todd decided to fill the gap. After much encouragement from his friend, he left the corporate world to launch Cybersecurity4biz, offering practical, affordable solutions tailored to the needs of solopreneurs and micro-businesses. His mission? The “little guy” helping the “little guy”.
