Beyond the four designations
These are not issued as public badges, so they are not in the wall above. Each is verifiable — from a government record, or on request.
Instructor, Canadian Centre for Cyber Security
Thirty-two months through November 2025, across four courses delivered in both official languages — the ITSG-33 security risk management boot camp, foundations of cloud security in the Government of Canada, the cloud security assessment and authorization process, and the cloud service provider assessment course.
Instructor record on request
Cloud service provider assessment certification
The Canadian Centre for Cyber Security certification for conducting cloud service provider IT security assessments at Protected B — held, and applied from the readiness side rather than the assessment side. It is not an accreditation to assess our own clients.
Certificate on request
Government of Canada Secret clearance
Held. On a federal mandate with a fixed ceiling, a multi-month screening cycle is a material fraction of the contract consumed before any work starts — so this is stated up front rather than discovered at onboarding.
Level, sponsoring organization and expiry on request
Caribbean Association of Banks — Service Member
Accepted as a Service Member by the Board of the Caribbean Association of Banks in 2026. CAB is the regional association for banks and financial institutions across the Caribbean. Service membership is a standing, not an endorsement: it carries no vote, and nothing about it represents a CAB view of our services.
Acceptance letter available on request
Published code of professional conduct
Three professional codes already bind the principal — CMC-Canada, ISC2, and the Ordre des ingénieurs du Québec. Those bind a person, so the firm carries the same obligations in its own written code, including the four boundaries on what Sagentix does not do. It is published in full rather than summarised, in English and French.
Bilingual delivery
French native, English fluent. The Canadian Centre for Cyber Security curriculum was delivered in both official languages; deliverables are produced in either, or in a department’s own templates.

What You Can Verify Today
Five proof points you can evaluate before making any commitment.
Evidence Density Comparison
See how our citation count compares to typical strategy deliverables. A median of 38 APA citations per phase, against the 3–5 per deck we have observed benchmarking client decks across prior engagements.
Quality Gate + Founder-Signed Review
18-check automated quality gate applied to every deliverable — declarative titles, per-vertical implications, evidence scoring, claim provenance — followed by a founder-signed final review by Stéphane Raby (CMC) before release.
Industry Data Citation Examples
Real citation format with report codes. Traceable to the source page.
Engagement Timeline Evidence
10 phases in 6–8 weeks. Delivery cadence verified across multiple completed engagements.
Methodology Overview
1,414 cataloged IP artifacts, 10-phase structure, cross-phase evidence threading. Built to top-tier consulting standards.
Our Commitment
Three guarantees that remove your risk.
Phase 1 Money-Back Guarantee
If Phase 01 Market Intelligence reveals nothing new about your market, competitive landscape, or buyer dynamics, you are entitled to a full refund within 14 days of deliverable receipt. The deliverable remains yours regardless of refund status.
Quality Commitment
Every deliverable passes an 18-check quality gate before delivery — Pyramid Principle structure, evidence density minimums, regulatory terminology enforcement, and top-tier consulting formatting standards. After the gate, every deliverable is personally read end-to-end and signed by Stéphane Raby (CMC) before it is released to you. Automation plus human-in-the-loop final review. If a deliverable does not meet the standard, we revise it at no cost.
Confidentiality Guarantee
Mutual NDA signed before onboarding. All deliverables marked CONFIDENTIAL. Client data, strategies, and business information are never shared across engagements, used in marketing, or retained after engagement close without explicit written permission.
