About Us
Bringing elite, enterprise-level cybersecurity strategies down to main street.
Lucas Pralle
Founder & Principal Risk Analyst
A Battle-Tested Approach to Digital Defense
As a Marine Corps veteran and a Senior Information Security Risk Analyst for the largest rural healthcare system in the country, my approach to digital defense is built on precision, accountability, and uncompromising standards.
Operating at the highest levels of healthcare cybersecurity, I defend critical infrastructure and navigate complex regulatory environments daily. I see firsthand the massive resources large organizations dedicate to risk management. Meanwhile, local businesses—the actual backbone of our economy—are often left exposed, lacking the specialized guidance needed to defend against those exact same sophisticated threats.
From our headquarters in Central Wisconsin, I founded Hometown Cyber to level the playing field. My mission is to bring the rigorous methodologies used to protect millions of highly sensitive records directly to your business. I translate complex, enterprise-level risk management into clear, heavy-duty controls—building a shield around your hard work so you can run your operations with absolute confidence.
The Pillars of Our Defense
We approach cybersecurity differently. We are your neighbors, your independent advisors, and your local defense experts.
Uncompromising Integrity
Security is inherently about trust. We treat your operational continuity, your reputation, and your sensitive data as if they were our own.
Heavy-Duty, Practical Defense
We bridge the gap between theoretical security and business reality, implementing robust controls that protect your assets without paralyzing your daily workflow.
Enterprise-Grade Expertise
We bring specialized, high-level risk analysis directly to our community, stripping away the corporate jargon to deliver clear, actionable strategies.
