Your team is feeding
client data to ChatGPT
right now.

90% of employees at companies with no official AI policy are already using personal ChatGPT accounts for work. Your clients' data is leaving the building without your knowledge. We assess what's happening, deploy AI that stays on your infrastructure, and build it to your exact requirements.

This Is Happening Right Now

What your team is doing with AI
while you're reading this

📊

Research from MIT Project NANDA found that while only 40% of companies purchased an official AI tool, workers from over 90% of companies surveyed reported regular use of personal AI tools for work tasks — often without IT knowledge or approval. The "shadow AI economy" is already inside your organization. The question is whether it stays invisible, or whether you get ahead of it.

⚖️ Law Firm
An associate pastes three pages of deposition transcript into ChatGPT to generate a summary for the partner. Client name, case details, opposing counsel strategy — all of it just left the building. The associate thought they were being efficient.
The problem: State bar attorney-client privilege rules. In many jurisdictions, this is a reportable incident. Malpractice carriers have started asking specifically about AI policies during renewal.
🏥 Healthcare Practice
A medical assistant uses free ChatGPT to summarize a patient's chart before a follow-up. The conversation is stored by OpenAI and may be used for model training under their default consumer terms. Nobody checked those terms.
The problem: HIPAA Privacy Rule violation. OCR fines start at $100 per record. No BAA was signed. OpenAI's consumer product is not a covered entity. No exceptions for "we didn't know."
💰 Financial Advisor / RIA
A paraplanner uses Copilot to draft a client investment proposal, pasting in account values, holdings, and financial goals. That data is now processed by a third-party model under Microsoft's terms — not yours, not your client's.
The problem: SEC Regulation S-P (customer financial privacy). FINRA has already issued AI guidance. Depending on what was shared, this may trigger a breach notification requirement.
🏭 Defense Contractor
An engineer uses an AI assistant to write a technical spec for a component that falls under ITAR export controls. The content is now on third-party cloud infrastructure. Nobody on the team knew ITAR applied to that document.
The problem: ITAR violations carry criminal penalties up to 20 years and $1M per incident. "Accidental disclosure" is not a recognized defense. This is actively being investigated by the State Department.
The Financial Reality

What it actually costs when it goes wrong

These are published figures from federal agencies — not worst-case marketing. The organizations that survive these incidents are the ones that had defensible systems in place before the inquiry started.

$100–$50K
Per-record HIPAA fine depending on negligence level. Average OCR settlement: $1.2M.
HHS Office for Civil Rights, 2025
$4.88M
Average total cost of a healthcare data breach in 2024 — highest of any industry for the 14th consecutive year.
IBM Cost of a Data Breach Report, 2024
$1M+
Per-violation ITAR civil penalty. Criminal exposure: up to 20 years per count. No accidental disclosure defense.
U.S. State Dept., Directorate of Defense Trade Controls
95%
Of enterprise GenAI investments return zero measurable P&L impact. Mostly because the tools don't integrate or adapt to actual workflows.

Cloud AI (ChatGPT Teams / Copilot)
$30/user/month → $18,000/yr
For 50 users. Data leaves your network. Compliance exposure active from Day 1. No audit trail. Static — doesn't learn your workflows.

Private AI (one-time deployment)
$8,500 flat → $0/month
One-time cost. Data stays on your hardware. Built to your requirements. Architecturally aligned with your compliance obligations.
Ideal Clients

If your data is too sensitive for ChatGPT,
it belongs on your own hardware

The organizations below have the most to lose from consumer AI exposure — and the clearest case for a private deployment built to spec.

⚖️

Law Firms

Attorney-client privilege ends the moment client data touches a third-party AI. Private LLMs let your team use AI freely on documents that never leave your network.

ABA Model Rules 1.1, 1.6, 5.3
🏥

Healthcare

No cloud AI vendor covers free-tier consumer use under a HIPAA BAA. Private deployment lets your practice adopt AI today without putting PHI on anyone else's infrastructure.

HIPAA Privacy Rule · 45 CFR §164
💰

Financial Services

Client NPI, account data, and trading strategy belong on your network. SEC and FINRA are actively building AI enforcement guidance. Get the architecture right before they ask.

Regulation S-P · FINRA Rule 4370
🏭

Defense & Manufacturing

ITAR, EAR, and CMMC 2.0 have teeth. If your engineers are using AI tools with controlled technical data, the exposure is already in progress.

ITAR · CMMC 2.0 · EAR Part 730
🔬

Research & Universities

IRB-protected data, unpublished findings, and grant IP shouldn't leave your institution's network. Local AI keeps your research private until you decide otherwise.

IRB · FERPA · NSF/NIH grant terms
🏛️

Government & Contractors

CUI handling requirements, DFARS, and FedRAMP mean cloud AI is off the table for most government work. On-premises is the only architecturally defensible path.

Have something that doesn't fit a standard package — an unusual architecture, a specific integration, or a need for a long-term technical partner? Let's talk about what you actually need.
  • Complex or multi-system deployments
  • Ongoing model updates + tuning
  • New use case implementation
  • Security monitoring + patching
  • Staff training as team grows
  • Priority response
Scoped per engagement. No open-ended commitments.

A plain-English note on what we do — and what we don't.

We design and build AI systems. We are engineers, not lawyers, compliance officers, or auditors. The systems we build are aligned to the requirements you bring us — which means they are only as good as your understanding of your own regulatory obligations. Complete requirements produce complete systems. Gaps in what you tell us become gaps in what we build.

Nothing on this page is legal advice. We don't certify compliance, issue legal opinions, or take responsibility for obligations you haven't disclosed. We follow established security frameworks (OWASP, NIST, OWASP LLM Top 10) and document everything we build. Whether that documentation satisfies your specific auditors is between you and them.

What we can tell you: organizations with defensible, documented, private AI systems are in a fundamentally better position than those whose teams are quietly using consumer AI tools with no policy and no audit trail.

Background

Certified infrastructure engineer.
Not a ChatGPT wrapper salesman.

In 2026, anyone can call themselves an AI consultant. Here's what's actually relevant.

🔐

CompTIA SecurityX — Active

SecurityX (formerly CASP+) is CompTIA's highest-level certification — above Security+, CySA+, and PenTest+. It targets senior security architects and engineers, not entry-level practitioners. This is what makes the security assessment component real — not a checklist exercise.

🎓

CompTIA Official SME — AutoOps+ V1

Made video demos for a brand new CompTIA certification (AutoOps+) before it even launched — as an official Subject Matter Expert. If you've taken CompTIA courses recently, there's a reasonable chance I'm in the video.

🌐

Enterprise Infrastructure Background

Web security at GoDaddy (production scale). Network architecture for JD Sports / Finish Line across national retail footprint. Private AI deployment requires networking, storage, and security expertise simultaneously. This isn't a single-skill role.

🎖️

50+ Military & Government Courses

Delivered over 50 CompTIA certification courses for military and government clients through multiple training organizations. Security-cleared audiences with zero tolerance for vagueness — that's the standard I work to.

📊

Professional Machine Learning Experience

Applied ML research in synthetic control methods for professional use — not just tutorials. Understanding the math behind AI matters when you're building systems that make decisions with real data.

🖥️

Personal AI Infrastructure — Running Daily

Multiple GPUs, dedicated storage servers, hybrid cloud integration — all running in production. I'm not describing what private AI looks like from a whitepaper. I run it. The systems I build for clients are based on what I live with every day.
