The Fulcrum Group, a managed IT services provider based in Keller, Texas, announced a new partnership with CyberQP, a developer of cybersecurity and automation solutions, to strengthen Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) compliance and security for public safety and municipal clients in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
Through this collaboration, The Fulcrum Group will deploy CyberQP's QGuard and QDesk solutions to automate password rotation and real-time auditing for service accounts, which are frequently targeted in cyberattacks. According to the Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report, service accounts remain a common attack vector due to weak or unmanaged credentials. The new tools aim to reduce exposure from insider and external threats while supporting compliance with CJIS Security Policy version 6.0, which imposes stricter requirements on law enforcement and justice organizations.
“Public safety organizations depend on reliable, compliant technology to protect our communities,” 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.”
Mateo Barraza, CEO of CyberQP, emphasized that CJIS compliance goes beyond checkboxes. “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 also enables identity-verified processes for critical access requests, such as password resets for field personnel and patrol units, making secure access simpler and faster without sacrificing protection. This initiative reinforces The Fulcrum Group’s mission to provide peace of mind through security, compliance, and responsive IT support.
