About our Company

After three decades of securing infrastructure and endpoints for telecommunications and medical corporations, I saw a gap that needed to be filled: local small businesses were being left behind by the tech industry.

I founded CastelGuard to bring that enterprise-level expertise home to North Jackson, Ohio. We specialize in helping small businesses in the Mahoning Valley navigate the complex world of cyber insurance, compliance, and 24/7 threat protection.

Our mission is simple: To be the shield for your business so you can focus on what you do best. No fluff, no unnecessary overhead—just robust, reliable security from a neighbor you can trust.

Professional Experience

With over 30 years of experience in the Information Technology and Cyber Security field, I have a wealth of knowledge that can be leveraged to secure your company. I have worked at large corporations to start ups in the following industries:

  • Healthcare

    • Regional University Hospital

    • Biomedical Manufacturing

  • Infrastructure

    • Telecommunications

    • Internet Service Provider

  • Technology

    • Software as a Service

    • Content Management and Services

  • Manufacturing

  • Managed Security Service Provider

In these companies I have protected over 100,000 computers and servers, secured mission critical databases for a multi-billion dollar company, defended against nation state hackers, identified insider threats, prevented theft of intellectual property, and ensured every company I worked at met their regulatory compliance requirements.

I have vast knowledge of enterprise grade security practices, software, frameworks, and policies. I know how to protect a company and make sure they don’t end up in the news.

I bring this experience to all small businesses in the Mahoning Valley, for the a fraction of the cost of hiring a full-time security professional.
