Everything we do at Alternis IT is based on partnership. We pursue relationships not transactions. The result is a thriving community of entrepreneurs and professionals who value integrity and transparency in their business endeavors.

Our clients trust us not only for how we run their technologies but for how we operate our own business. Alternis IT uses a contemporary, virtual business model with a distributed team of local and national technology professionals at-the-ready 24/7.

This innovation is made possible by our carefully curated technologies and processes, each specializing in a distinct facet of cybersecurity.

This unique strategy enables us to offer a comprehensive suite of services, providing our clients not only with cutting-edge solutions but also a seamless connection to a familiar team member who intimately understands their business needs.

Our philosophy is to adapt our partner choices to the magic quadrant research developed by the leading technology research company in the world, Gartner. At Alternis IT, our commitment goes beyond securing data; we establish enduring partnerships, prioritizing personalized approaches to empower our client's journey toward their full potential.
