NOLA Tech Audit

Comprehensive Free IT Assessment for Your Business

Stop guessing about the health of your network. We provide a deep-dive, no-obligation technology and security audit tailored for law firms, medical offices, and growing businesses across the Greater New Orleans area.

Why New Orleans Businesses Need a Comprehensive IT Audit

In today's threat landscape, "hope" is not a valid IT strategy. When you aren't absolutely certain that your backups work, or your office on Poydras Street feels sluggish without an obvious reason, you are leaving your business exposed to devastating downtime.

A Professional IT Assessment turns your blind spots into actionable intelligence. By running a non-invasive scan of your infrastructure, we focus on uncovering hidden vulnerabilities rather than waiting for a hacker or a server crash to expose them for you.

  • Identify Security Gaps: Discover exactly where your network is vulnerable to ransomware, phishing, and data theft.
  • Verify Your Backups: Are your files actually recoverable? We test your disaster recovery protocols to ensure they work.
  • Actionable Roadmap: Receive a clear, jargon-free executive summary detailing what needs to be fixed immediately.

Seamless Evaluation: How the Audit Works

The Kickoff Call

We have a brief 15-minute phone call to understand your primary business frustrations, complaints, and regulatory requirements.

Non-Invasive Scan

With your permission, we run a lightweight, secure diagnostic tool on your network that gathers data without slowing down your employees.

Executive Report Generation

We compile the raw data into a plain-English "Risk Score" report, highlighting critical red flags (like missing backups or exposed passwords).

The Strategy Review

We sit down with you to review the findings. We hand over the report—yours to keep—and provide a clear roadmap to fix the issues.

Your IT Strategist

An IT Assessment shouldn't be a high-pressure sales pitch. It's about providing absolute clarity on your technological health. Ryan Relf ensures that the final report gives you actionable data you can use immediately.


Second Opinion: Not sure if your current IT guy is actually doing the job? Our audit acts as the perfect, unbiased fact-check for your network.

Government-Grade Scrutiny for Your Business

For over 10 years, I performed strict technology audits and managed the IT infrastructure for Jefferson Parish Government, uncovering vulnerabilities across 30+ civic departments.

In those environments, missing a failing backup or an open firewall port could mean a severe public data leak. I bring that same rigorous forensic scrutiny, strict auditing methodology, and precision to your private company's assessment. Whether you are reviewing 5 computers or 50, you receive the same level of exhaustive technical oversight required by the highest levels of local government.
