About Muhammad

Muhammad Sizar is the founder and CEO of Cobrix Solutions, a remote California-based managed service provider (MSP) and managed security service provider (MSSP) serving small and mid-sized businesses across the United States. He holds the Project Management Professional (PMP) certification from the Project Management Institute and has built Cobrix around a single operating principle: small businesses in regulated industries deserve the same caliber of IT, cybersecurity, and compliance support that enterprise teams have always taken for granted.

Cobrix specializes in industries where IT failure has regulatory and financial consequences — healthcare, legal, accounting, real estate, and construction. Under Muhammad's leadership, every engagement is anchored in three commitments: a signed Business Associate Agreement where applicable, SLA-backed response times measured in minutes rather than business days, and flat-rate pricing with no long-term lock-in.

Why Cobrix

Cobrix was built for the operator who has spent the last decade getting paged at 2:00 a.m. for an issue that a properly-architected IT program would never have produced. The firm's mandate is preventive — every engagement is designed so the next 2:00 a.m. page never lands. That means written incident response plans, tested backups, documented vendor risk registers, and the kind of phishing-resistant authentication posture that takes the most common attack surface off the table.

If you run a regulated business and your current IT relationship is reactive, ad-hoc, or unaccountable, Cobrix's evaluation is straightforward. We will tell you the truth about your exposure in plain language and price the work on a flat monthly rate with no minimum term.
