Built from the inside out.

The insight that built Data Hygienics did not come from a boardroom. It came from years of working inside organizations that had everything at stake and not enough clarity to protect it.

Early in his career, Hunter worked as an incident response analyst for a Native American tribal nation, responsible for securing federal government infrastructure, casinos, museums, and hospitals. These were communities depending on systems most people never think about. Getting it wrong had real consequences for real people.

That work led to a role with the United States federal government, where Hunter worked alongside dozens of department heads to assess and strengthen their security environments. What he kept seeing was the same dynamic: decision-makers who were smart, capable, and completely without the language or the tools to advocate for themselves in technical conversations.

The expertise was always on one side of the table. The authority and the accountability were on the other. That gap is where bad decisions get made.

In the private sector, working with a managed service provider, he saw it again across dozens of organizations: nonprofits, law firms, hospitals, financial firms, small businesses across nearly every industry. Leaders who wanted to do the right thing but could not get a straight answer about what the right thing was.

The cybersecurity industry had built remarkable tools. It just had not built them for the people running the business.

Data Hygienics is the platform Hunter wished had existed for every client he ever worked with. Independent, plain-English, and built with one purpose: to give the people running small businesses the same quality of cybersecurity clarity that large enterprises pay consultants hundreds of dollars an hour to receive.

He is now a software developer with a deep belief that technology should serve people, not mystify them. This is where that belief lives.
