Who We Are

Cyber Defense Army LLC is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) founded by Evan Morgan, a United States Air Force veteran. CDA operates as the IP holding company for a multi-entity cybersecurity ecosystem designed to address every dimension of modern cyber defense.

Our operating philosophy is built on the Empty Fortress Doctrine: we secure ourselves first. We practice what we sell. Every tool, process, and methodology we deploy for clients is battle-tested internally before it reaches a single engagement.

We believe that cybersecurity has been commoditized into monitoring and alerting services that create dependency without resolution. CDA takes a fundamentally different approach: structured engagements with defined outcomes, measured progress, and a completion state. Clients graduate from our programs stronger and more independent than when they started.
