Security, AI and data help for the small offices big IT firms overlook.
Worried about a cyber attack but not sure what to fix first? Wondering whether your team should be using AI? Running your business on a database only one person understands? I help small offices sort out what matters, in plain English and small, affordable steps.
The two questions every small business is asking right now.
You don't need to become an expert. You need someone to tell you what matters for a business your size, and help you do it.
"How do I protect my business?"
Most attacks on small offices start with a stolen password or a fake email, not a hacker in a movie. Start with a free outside-in snapshot that needs no access at all, then fix the basics in order of importance.
Protect my business"How do we use AI without risking our data?"
Your team may already be pasting work into ChatGPT. I help you pick the right tools, write a simple AI-use policy, and put AI to work on the tasks that actually save time.
Use AI safelyProblems too small for the big IT firms, and too important to ignore.
Larger IT companies are built for networks and help desks. The custom data work and small-office compliance often fall through the cracks.
"Our whole business runs on one database."
And nobody knows how it works anymore. I stabilize it, back it up, and modernize it one step at a time. Database & Spreadsheet Rescue →
"The IRS asked if we have a security plan."
Tax preparers are required to have a written information security plan. I write it with you and put the safeguards in place. Tax Office Security →
"We can't get numbers out of our system."
Simple reports and dashboards that pull from the software you already use, so you can see how the business is doing.
Start small. Only fix what matters.

Advice sized to your business, not mine.
Small businesses get sold more technology than they need all the time. CDT exists to do the opposite.
I recommend the smallest fix that solves the problem, explain it in plain English, and tell you when something isn't worth the money.
