The Fulcrum Group, a leading provider of outsourced IT services for businesses and government agencies across the Dallas–Fort Worth area, today announced a new partnership with CyberQP, a trusted developer of cybersecurity and automation solutions for managed service providers. This collaboration aims to strengthen IT security and compliance for public safety and municipal clients operating under the Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) framework—one of the most rigorous security standards governing law enforcement and justice organizations.
Through this partnership, The Fulcrum Group will deploy CyberQP’s QGuard and QDesk solutions. These tools are designed to address the evolving requirements of CJIS Security Policy version 6.0, which imposes new mandates for improving IT security. “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.”
Service accounts remain a common attack vector, often exploited due to weak or unmanaged credentials, according to the Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR). The new capabilities from this partnership aim to mitigate those risks. Clients gain automated password rotation to reduce risk exposure, real-time auditing to support compliance requirements, and stronger protection against insider and external threats. Additionally, the partnership enables more secure and efficient IT support workflows, including identity-verified processes for critical access requests such as password resets for field personnel and patrol units.
“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.”
This initiative reinforces The Fulcrum Group’s mission to deliver “One Technology Solution: Yours”—providing peace of mind through security, compliance, and responsive IT support. Public safety organizations depend on reliable, compliant technology to protect communities, and this partnership helps them meet CJIS requirements while making secure access simpler and faster without sacrificing protection.
