The Fulcrum Group, a provider of outsourced IT services for businesses and government agencies in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, has announced a partnership with CyberQP, a developer of cybersecurity and automation solutions for managed service providers. The collaboration aims to strengthen Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) compliance and protect public safety IT infrastructure.
Through this partnership, The Fulcrum Group will deploy CyberQP's QGuard and QDesk solutions to enhance IT security and compliance for its public safety and municipal clients. These agencies operate under the CJIS framework, which governs law enforcement and justice organizations. With the release of CJIS Security Policy version 6.0, public safety organizations face new requirements to improve IT security, particularly regarding service accounts—a common attack vector according to the Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR).
“We’re proud to support The Fulcrum Group in protecting critical public safety infrastructure,” said Mateo Barraza, CEO of CyberQP. “CJIS compliance isn't just about checking a box—it’s about delivering real-world security that stands up to today’s threats. Our platform empowers IT providers like Fulcrum to deliver secure, efficient service while giving public safety organizations the protection they deserve.”
The partnership addresses risks associated with service accounts, which are often exploited due to weak or unmanaged credentials. The Fulcrum Group's clients will benefit from automated password rotation, real-time auditing, and stronger protection against insider and external threats. Additionally, the solutions enable more secure IT support workflows, including identity-verified processes for critical access requests such as password resets for field personnel and patrol units.
“With enhancements in CJIS Security Policy version 6.0, public safety organizations face new requirements to improve IT security,” said Steve Meek, CEO of The Fulcrum Group. “By combining our STARpower IT framework with CyberQP’s automation tools, we’re not just meeting those requirements—we’re improving protection for service accounts and accelerating response times for sensitive requests.”
This initiative reinforces The Fulcrum Group’s mission to deliver one technology solution that provides peace of mind through security, compliance, and responsive IT support. The Fulcrum Group has served healthcare, manufacturing, local government, nonprofits, and other industries for over 20 years, helping organizations maintain secure, reliable technology while aligning IT strategy with business goals.
