About ACC
About Anderson Computer Consulting
Built by a veteran engineer. Designed for enterprise demands.
Who We Are
Anderson Computer Consulting (ACC) is a Florida-based technology consulting firm founded by Mike Anderson — a retired U.S. Navy Chief Information Systems Technician with over 30 years of hands-on IT experience.
We specialize in enterprise network engineering, cybersecurity, managed IT, and government technology consulting. Every solution we deliver is air-gapped capable, automation-driven, and production-ready.
What Makes ACC Different
ACC is built around a working engineer mindset:
- solve the real problem, not just the obvious symptom
- automate whatever will need to be repeated
- document the environment like another team has to inherit it
- prefer open-source and offline-capable designs whenever practical
- leave behind a platform your team can actually operate
Our Philosophy
We don’t sell products — we build solutions. Every engagement starts with understanding your environment, your constraints, and your mission. Then we design and deliver infrastructure that actually works, can be handed to your team, and documented properly.
“Enterprise-grade infrastructure doesn’t have to mean enterprise-grade complexity. It means getting it right.”
