Sarah Phillips founded Industry FSO to make industrial security more accessible and manageable for defense contractors. With deep experience as a Facility Security Officer and a strong understanding of DCSA expectations, Sarah recognized that many small businesses lack the time and resources to manage an FCL on their own.
Under her leadership, Industry FSO focuses on delivering hands-off, done-for-you FSO services that remove administrative burden while maintaining accuracy and compliance. Her goal is to help defense contractors—especially SMBs and emerging defense technology companies—focus on the work that matters most, while Industry FSO manages the complexity of security compliance.
Defense contractors choose Industry FSO for experienced, dependable support that emphasizes accuracy, clarity, and long-term compliance. Our work is grounded in how security programs operate in the real world—and how DCSA evaluates them.
