Security & IT Architecture

Hands-on design and build work for your network, systems, and security. Done right the first time, and documented so your team can run it.

Many consultants can tell you what’s wrong. Fewer can sit down and build the fix. I do both.

I’ve spent 15 years on both sides of the line between IT and security, from running every piece of technology for a five-person office to designing the systems of a regulated insurance company. Good security depends on good IT, so I design them together.

What I can help design and build#

  • Networks and firewalls. Keeping the right things connected and the wrong things out.
  • Accounts and access. Microsoft 365 and Entra ID, single sign-on, and multi-factor sign-in.
  • Servers and cloud systems. On-site, in Microsoft Azure or Amazon Web Services, or a mix.
  • Monitoring and alerts. Knowing when something goes wrong, before your customers do.
  • Backups and recovery. Getting back up and running quickly after a failure or attack.
  • Automation. Scripts and tools that remove repetitive, error-prone manual work.

Every project ends with documentation your team can maintain after I step back.

How it works

  1. 1

    Understand the goal

    What the business needs, what you have today, and what constraints we are working with.

  2. 2

    Design it

    Options with honest trade-offs and costs, and a clear recommendation.

  3. 3

    Build it

    I do the hands-on work myself, or oversee your provider while they do it.

  4. 4

    Hand it over

    Documentation and a walkthrough, so your team is confident running it day to day.
