why this matters
Most small businesses don't know they're at risk until it's too late.
A national security firm wants $40,000 for an audit. A managed service provider wants $5,000 a month. So most owners cross their fingers and hope they're not the one who gets hit.
60%
of small businesses close within six months of a cyberattack — the dental office, the salon, the family restaurant, the contractor who just landed a city job. They don't close because hackers are clever. They close because no one ever showed them what to fix first.
Doing nothing isn't a plan. Doing nothing isn't free.

Community Partner Pricing
Access to security shouldn't depend on the size of your business. Smaller businesses, nonprofits, churches, and first-year startups pay a lower rate on every paid service — set by your size, not by haggling.
| Who it's for | Annual revenue | Community rate |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | $500K and up | Full price |
| Community Partner — Tier 1 | $250K – $499K | 15% off |
| Community Partner — Tier 2 | $100K – $249K | 25% off |
| Seed Tier | Under $100K · nonprofit · church · first-year startup | 35% off |
You tell us — we trust you.
Eligibility is one self-attested line in your service agreement. No invasive paperwork, no proving you deserve a fair price.
One step deeper.
Minority-, woman-, and veteran-owned businesses — and those in a HUBZone — move one tier deeper.
Bring your whole group.
Chambers, church networks, and business districts can train 4–8 businesses together for about $89 each.
Always a partnership.
Every plan keeps a real price, however small — so you're a partner who pays something real, never a charity case.
the difference
Local data. Local prices. Local accountability.
Your data stays in Mobile
Everything we manage runs on equipment owned right here in Mobile, Alabama. Your information never gets shipped to a Silicon Valley company you've never heard of.
Plain English, always
No acronyms. No "cyber" buzzwords. We explain what's at risk, what to fix, and why — in language you can repeat to your team without a translator.
Built for the long haul
We're not here to sell you the most expensive package. We're here to be the neighbor you call for the next ten years — and our pricing reflects that.
about the founder
Hi, I'm Johnneshia.
I'm the founder of The Secure Terminal — and the daughter, mother, and granddaughter behind it. I started this company because I watched my own family deal with a cybersecurity industry that was never built for everyday people.
I have over six years of IT experience, I'm a student in the Melton Business Development Program at the University of South Alabama's Mitchell College of Business, and I'm pursuing two of the industry's most-recognized certifications. But the most important thing I bring isn't a credential — it's the willingness to sit across the table from you, listen, and explain things in a way that makes sense.
You're not too small to be a target. You're the perfect size.
