Cybersecurity consulting for critical data, cloud, and AI systems.
AITEK helps organizations assess risk, strengthen security architecture, and protect the systems their operations depend on. Security is the lead discipline; 19 years of SQL Server and infrastructure depth make the work practical where sensitive data actually lives.
Security first.
Data depth behind it.
AITEK focuses on security assessments, architecture review, and risk reduction for organizations where databases, cloud systems, and AI workflows carry real business exposure.
Cybersecurity Assessment & Consulting
CIS 18 assessments, security architecture review, vulnerability management program design, and cloud/data security advisory — delivered by a GIAC Operational Cybersecurity Executive with adversary-informed experience across regulated enterprise environments.
Database, ERP & SQL Server Security
Security review and operational hardening for SQL Server, ERP-backed environments, backups, recovery, permissions, and data systems where reliability and exposure both matter.
AI & Workflow Security Architecture
AI agents and automated workflows designed around access control, data exposure, privilege boundaries, and production reliability instead of prototype convenience.
Security questions get urgent when critical systems are involved
AITEK is built for practical, high-trust security work where database reliability, cloud architecture, identity, and automation decisions affect real business exposure.
Leadership needs a clear view of security posture
You need a practical assessment against CIS Controls 18, a prioritized remediation path, or an architecture review before risk turns into an incident.
Access, exposure, and permissions need scrutiny
Data-sensitive environments need someone who can examine cloud, database, and identity decisions through a security lens.
The team wants automation without creating new risk
AI agents and workflows are useful only when they connect to the right systems, enforce boundaries, and avoid exposing sensitive data.
Critical databases are not being reviewed like security assets
SQL Server often holds the data attackers want most. Permissions, backup exposure, service accounts, configuration, and recovery assumptions all need security scrutiny.
A system change exposed database or server risk
Migrations, ERP rollouts, and configuration changes can reveal hidden issues in SQL Server, infrastructure, backups, access, and permissions.
Backups exist, but recovery confidence is low
The business needs to know whether backup, restore, high availability, and disaster recovery plans will actually work when needed.
Security work gets stronger when the data layer is understood deeply.

Data architecture that doesn't cut corners
19 years of SQL Server work means AITEK understands where sensitive data lives, how production systems fail, and which security assumptions break down under operational pressure.

Security thinking baked in — not bolted on
Holder of the GIAC Operational Cybersecurity Executive designation (GCCC · GSTRT · GSOM) plus offensive-security-informed experience. Access controls, data exposure, and privilege boundaries are first-class considerations.

Production-tested standards, not prototype thinking
AITEK's owner has operated in complex, high-stakes production environments across financial services and regulated industries. The work is grounded in what can actually be implemented, monitored, recovered, and defended.

You work with the owner on every engagement
No bait-and-switch. No junior staff assigned after the pitch. Every engagement is executed by the same person who built the company and holds the credentials behind the security work.
His security credentials go beyond the standard practitioner tier: Timothy holds the GIAC Operational Cybersecurity Executive designation — earned through GCCC, GSTRT, and GSOM — a SANS recognition specifically for leaders who operate security programs at scale, not just execute tasks within them. That's backed by GCIH for incident handling, CISSP, and offensive-security-informed experience across complex enterprise environments.
For teams responsible for security around critical data systems
AITEK helps organizations assess risk, harden environments, and reduce exposure in the database, cloud, and AI systems their operations depend on.
Organizations Needing a Security Baseline
You need a CIS 18 assessment, security architecture review, or vulnerability management program delivered by someone with real-world experience in regulated environments.
Regulated & Data-Sensitive Industries
Financial services, healthcare, legal, and professional services firms where data handling, access controls, and security posture are business requirements.
Teams Protecting SQL Server Data
Your business depends on SQL Server, ERP, or reporting data that needs stronger access review, recovery confidence, hardening, and operational security.
IT Leaders Reviewing Cloud & Identity Risk
You need a clear look at permissions, exposure, architecture decisions, and practical remediation across cloud and identity-connected systems.
Companies Deploying AI Into Real Workflows
You want AI automation, but you need access boundaries, data exposure review, and production architecture before connecting agents to business systems.
Leaders Modernizing Legacy Operations
You need to modernize systems or automate workflows without weakening security, losing recovery confidence, or creating uncontrolled data access.
Security consulting backed by real production systems depth
AITEK's SQL Server history matters because critical business data often lives inside systems that need both operational judgment and security review.
“AITEK has been a lifesaver for us. We had many problems with SQL and our Server configuration when we first changed ERP Systems. Tim’s expertise and knowledge put us on the right path for smooth sailing. Great company to have in your toolkit.”
