What I Fix (in plain English)
If you make art and rely on your computers, I help you avoid:
- Losing work if a laptop dies or gets stolen
- Ransomware wiping out your catalog
- Exposed remote access or open Wi-Fi letting strangers in
- Scattered files and untested backups
Creative Studio Security & Backup Checkup
One-time, fixed price.
- Map where projects live (machines, drives, cloud) and how they move
- Sanity check backups (aiming for 3-2-1) and test a simple restore path
- Quick lock-down of easy attack paths (RDP/VPN, Wi-Fi, passwords/MFA, updates)
- Short, plain-English report with the 5–10 most important fixes
Managed Open-Source Monitoring
Monthly, sized for small studios.
- Open-source monitoring (Wazuh/Elastic/Graylog) tuned for your setup
- Logs from workstations, servers, NAS, firewalls/VPN
- Plain-English monthly summary and clear incident steps during service hours
Secure Remote Collab & Network Design
Project-based.
- pfSense firewalls, segmented VLANs, hardened Wi-Fi
- WireGuard/SSH VPN or zero-trust style access to studio resources
- Hardened Windows/Linux and IAM (AD/Azure AD/Okta/GCP) with least privilege and MFA
- Infrastructure as Code (Ansible/Terraform) where possible
Extra Hands for IT Odds and Ends
Scoped, no surprises.
- Light automation, setup, and fixes so your tools just work together
- Predictable windows; no midnight surprises
