The Background Behind the Tools

15+ years building mission-critical systems in classified DoD and national security environments โ€” inside air-gapped networks, securing infrastructure that cannot afford to fail.

When you've spent years engineering systems where a single misconfiguration can have national security consequences, you develop a different relationship with risk. You don't cut corners. You validate. You document. You build with failure modes in mind from day one.

ALCE Consulting exists because that standard โ€” the one that protects classified networks โ€” should not be reserved for government contractors. Every business that handles sensitive data or competes in regulated markets deserves tools built with that same discipline.

The Mission

Make the engineering discipline of national security accessible to every business. Not as a consulting engagement that costs $500/hour โ€” as affordable, automated tools that run continuously and surface real risk.

Ghost and Optimus are the first two. More are in development. Every one is built RMF-mapped, production-grade, and designed to eliminate manual work at scale.
