The APO Difference

We want you to not need us.

Through everything we do, we want to enable you to own your own security. We will push you to do things now so that when you grow, you’ll be ready and the challenge won’t be so big that you can’t do security. If you only contact us to say thank you for the free tools we are providing, we’ve done our job.

Security is a right, not a privilege.

We are prepared to meet your budget where you are, because security is a right. We cannot give away our services, but we will do our best to maximize the tools you already have, make small changes that have big impacts, and in general do the best with what we have.

Can’t afford anything? Keep checking back. Our goal is to offer as many free tools as possible to help you managing your own security. Have a question or a product we haven’t covered yet? Submit it for a future blog topic.

We’re network-focused.

Good people know good people. Working with us means working with our network -  security and beyond. Once you’re a part of our network, we will become your advocate as well within your field.

We’re just like you.

Let’s be honest, we’re a network of cynics who made money working places we didn’t love - but we all love our field. We are trying to do something we love by supporting small businesses and non profits. You do your thing, we do ours. Everyone wins.

We are principled.

Racist, anti-trans, anti-women, anti-LGBTQ, and while we’re at it anti-science groups need not contact us but we’ll take your web traffic for our free resources.
