The Technical Knowledge to do the job right, the Business Acumen to make sure it matters.

Ted Demopoulos and Associates have been consulting in the security arena for over two decades, since before the term "hacker" and the Internet came into popular use, since before most companies owned any computers.

Our consulting clients range from small startups to Fortune 500 companies like Motorola, Cisco, IBM and HP, to foreign and domestic government agencies.

Please contact us with any questions or possible projects - if we're not the right solution, we may be able to recommend someone else appropriate.

It is important to realize that every project is different !

Even though two project's descriptions may be similar or even identical, the projects will almost certainly be very different. Similarly, two very different sounding projects may have much in common.  It is impossible to determine if Demopoulos Associates is the right choice for a particular project without dialogue.

There are no typical consulting assignments! Every client's needs are different.

The cookie cutter approach simply doesn't work. Throwing lots of junior staff (at senior staff rates) at projects doesn't work either. What does work is carefully determining goals as well as strategies to reach them, and working together jointly to achieve them.
