IT & Cybersecurity by former FBI and Secret Service Agents
How secure is your data? Can you be sure that nobody—internal or external—has access to your email or important government information? How do you protect yourself from hackers and possible cyber attacks? Perhaps you’ve seen how local municipalities have been effected by cybersecurity attacks and are looking to strengthen your systems and protocols?

Internet security is the key issue of the 21st century. Regardless of the size of your organization—every local municipality relies on data and information
Although cybersecurity has long since grown from a hypothetical fringe issue to a daily phenomenon that costs billions in damage every year, too many government leaders are still thinking in a reactionary way. True to the motto: I only take care of the problem when I am confronted with it directly. Unfortunately, by then it is often too late.
Prevention is a lot easier—and a lot cheaper. Just as you conscientiously lock your house and apartment and maybe even add an alarm system, there are also a number of ways in the IT area to avert illegal access and data damage in advance.
Our Team Lead
Former Sr. Secret Service Agent – Tim Allen
Precisely because Internet security has become a hot topic, caution is required when choosing a service provider. Globally speaking, there are very few true experts whose expertise exceeds that of a computer store clerk. In other words, true cybersecurity cannot be established by the adored nephew or grandchild with Internet skills.
Our team consists of some of the most experienced IT professionals, former Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and United States Secret Service (USSS) agents with decades of real front-line experience.
To cite just a few examples, members of our team have testified before the United States Congress on IT security and digital forensic analysis issues and have been instrumental in preparing IT security protocols for the US Department of Justice and the U.S. Secret Service. The training of our team includes, among other things, specialized training by the US Department of Defense and the NSA.
- Department of Defense Cyber Investigation Training Academy (DCITA)
- National Security Agency (NSA)
- Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC)
- ISC2 Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP)
- Certified Cyber Crime Investigator
- Certified Computer Evidence Recovery Specialist (SCERS)
- Certified Cellebrite Universal Forensic Extraction Device (UFED) Examiner
The advantage for our customers is obvious. Real experts, who have been at the forefront of developing cybersecurity protocols and internet security for the most secret government bodies, know what matters and offer effective IT security models.
