We're the support we wished we had in enterprise.

Meet CWS, the team your security team calls. Founded in Montreal in 2018 by people who ran enterprise security programs and knew exactly what great outside help should look like, so they built it.

Fun to work with. Serious about the outcome.

Security leaders are expected to know everything, see everything and catch everything, with the same two eyes as the rest of us. We make one great security leader count for ten.

We get more out of the security stack you already run. We design the security programs your business needs, we deploy, tune and run the tools that make them real, and when you would rather hand the whole thing to someone, we run it for you and keep raising the bar.

Every client starts with a straight answer on where they stand, where they need to be, and the shortest path between the two. Then we walk it with them.

The people you'll talk to.

yes, really

Rajat Sharma, Founder and CEO of CWS
ask him about Lotus

Rajat Sharma

Founder and CEO

Rajat spent the first part of his career inside large telecommunications and pipeline enterprises, running the security and cloud transformation programs most people only read about afterwards. That is where he learned how to make security work at scale and under pressure.

He is a member of the Forbes Technology Council, a published contributor to industry cybersecurity research alongside teams from JPMorgan and Google, has spoken on cyber and cloud transformation on stages around the world, the first time at 26, and sits on two company boards.

Outside CWS he owns an award-winning barbershop in Montreal and has helped design AI-led automotive technologies. When he is not working you will find him in the boxing gym or out with his dog Lotus. Rarely at the same time.
