Compliance-First IT.
Built for Regulated Industries.

In 2017, Jameson Smallwood founded Katalism after seeing regulated businesses struggle with two converging pressures: increasingly sophisticated cyber threats and increasingly strict compliance requirements.

Most IT providers treat compliance as a checkbox — something to bolt on after the fact. We built Katalism around a different idea: compliance should be the foundation of every IT decision, not an afterthought.

Today, we serve regulated industries nationwide with compliance-first managed IT and cybersecurity. Every system we configure, every security control we implement, and every recommendation we make is built around your regulatory obligations — whether that's HIPAA, FTC Safeguards, SOC 2, CMMC, FERPA, ITAR, or PCI-DSS.

What Makes Us Different

We Only Serve Regulated Industries

We don't do a little of everything for everyone. We go deep on the compliance frameworks, the software, the workflows, and the audit requirements that regulated businesses face every day.

We Speak Your Language

No jargon. No condescension. We explain security and compliance in business terms that make sense to practice managers and firm partners.

We're Proactive, Not Reactive

We don't wait for things to break. Continuous monitoring, regular assessments, and proactive maintenance keep you secure and compliant year-round.

We Document Everything

When auditors or regulators come calling, you'll have comprehensive documentation ready. Our clients don't scramble before audits — they're always prepared.
