What We Do

Our Focus is Providing the Security and Support Your Business Deserves

Ransomware attacks continue to be one of the top cybersecurity threats in 2024 for public and private sector organizations, regardless of size or industry. Even after paying a ransom, many businesses that paid a ransom found their data was still not recoverable, or that it was posted on the dark web for sale to the highest bidder.

With ransomware attacks and ransom payments nearly doubling in 2023, it is statistically more likely that companies will be targeted by ransomware attacks in 2024 and beyond, as this trend shows no signs of slowing down.

As more than just an IT provider, we work to protect and secure your business from the latest threats. Our comprehensive approach to cybersecurity will give you peace of mind knowing your business network and data are being monitored and safeguarded 24x7x365.

Our Story

We Have the Technical Expertise and Experience to Keep You Protected

Managing Director, Kris Boughton, graduated the United States Naval Academy in 2001, and was subsequently commissioned an unrestricted line officer in the U.S. Navy. During his time aboard nuclear-powered Fleet Ballistic Missile submarine USS KENTUCKY (SSBN-737), Kris qualified Submarine Warfare Officer and Nuclear Engineer Officer, and deployed on a total of six seas tours. Prior to resigning his commission, he functioned as Assistant Force Nuclear Power Officer, Commander, Submarine Force Atlantic.

Following honorable discharge from military service, Kris embarked on a career in aerospace engineering where he was responsible for the design, assembly, test, and integration of space-based power subsystems, and would go on to lead and manage a team of senior engineers at Lockheed Martin accountable for the delivery of custom hardware assets in conjunction with various classified U.S. Department of Defense space and missile projects. He also worked as a badged NASA contractor and has closely participated in numerous civil and commercial satellite launch campaigns.

For more than 20 years, Kris has developed and administrated large secure-by-design networks. Today, we do the same at Jump Point Technologies, where our commitment to excellence is embodied in our core values of Integrity, Fortitude, and Defense of Others.
