Bolt Hold Cyber Security is a veteran-owned firm founded in British Columbia. Our team brings decades of combined experience advising organizations and government leaders on intelligence threats, offensive cyber security, and general security consulting. We combine the discipline and operational ethos developed through military service with deep technical expertise and continued study of the evolving cyber threat landscape.

Our principal consultant has over two decades of experience advising on risks and threats, with a background in the Canadian Armed Forces that included specialization in human intelligence collection operations and eight years with the Canadian Special Operations Forces. We understand how adversaries think – because our team has spent careers studying them.

That background shapes how BHCS works: assessments focus on what an attacker would actually exploit, not just what looks good on a compliance form. Your data stays in Canada. Engagements are handled directly – no offshore subcontractors, no third-party data processors outside Canadian jurisdiction.

Specialists, Not Generalists.
