About Aggi Technologies

Our Story

Built on a Conviction: Security Should Be Deep, Not Just Documented

Aggi Technologies was founded in 2008 in Plano, Texas with a specific purpose: to make enterprise-grade AI security and cybersecurity expertise available to organizations that aren't large enough to build that expertise in-house, but face exactly the same threats as those that are.

From the beginning, the model was boutique — small, senior, and deeply technical. No offshore delivery. No junior consultants staffed behind a senior name. Every engagement handled by experts who have spent decades building real systems in production at scale: carrier-grade networks, connected vehicle platforms, satellite broadband, healthcare research infrastructure, and enterprise banking systems.

In 2026, Aggi Technologies launched ARIA — the Aggi Responsible Intelligence Assessor — the first AI governance assessment platform purpose-built for healthcare organizations deploying LLMs in clinical workflows. ARIA is the product of 17 years of security consulting translated into platform infrastructure.

2008

Aggi Technologies Founded

Established in Plano, Texas as a boutique cybersecurity consultancy. First engagements in network security, IoT device hardening, and enterprise security architecture for startups and SMBs.

2008 – 2015

IoT Security Pioneer

While companies were racing to connect devices without securing them, Aggi Technologies was building the frameworks that protected them — OT/IT boundary controls, embedded firmware security, and secure device provisioning before the market understood the risk.

2015 – 2022

Network Security & Automation

Expanded practice into intelligent network security automation — real-time anomaly detection, automated incident response, Zero Trust architecture, and cloud security across AWS, Azure, and GCP for regulated industries.

2022 – 2025

AI Security Practice

As organizations began deploying LLMs at speed, Aggi Technologies built an AI security practice — adversarial ML defense, prompt injection prevention, AI model integrity, and AI Security Posture Assessments for healthcare, finance, and enterprise AI teams.

2026 — Now

ARIA Platform Launch

Launched ARIA — the first AI governance assessment platform purpose-built for healthcare LLM deployments. NIST AI RMF, HIPAA, FDA CDS, dependency graph, and conditional logic engine. Now accepting early access requests.

17+ Years in business

30+ Years security & engineering expertise

10+ US & European patents

100% Senior experts — no offshore juniors

How We Think

Detection isn't the bottleneck. Decisions are.

Every regulated organization we engage already has signals — bias indicators, drift telemetry, policy violations, audit alerts. They detect plenty. The question that wakes up their CISO isn't "did we catch it?" It's "what do we do, how fast, and can we defend the decision in front of a regulator?"

That gap — between signal and defensible action — is where AI deployments live or die in regulated industries. Everything our practice does is in service of closing it. ARIA is what that work looks like at platform scale; the consultancy is what it looks like with hands-on judgment. Clients engage with the platform alone, the advisory alone, or both together — whichever fits.

How We Work

Three Principles That Have Not Changed Since 2008

Senior Experts Only

Every engagement is led and executed by senior-level experts with real-world production experience. We don't staff projects with junior consultants or offshore teams. You get the expertise you paid for, on every call and every deliverable.

Research-Grade Depth

Our technical depth comes from decades of real R&D — not certifications alone. Published research, patent authorship, and carrier-grade engineering give us foundational understanding that translates into better, more defensible solutions.

Accessible Engagement

Enterprise-grade security expertise shouldn't require an enterprise budget. We serve startups, growing businesses, and organizations without a dedicated security function — with three engagement options (platform-only, advisory-only, or both together) sized to the problem in front of you.

Our Leadership

The Founder

Aggi Technologies was built on one person's conviction that serious security expertise should not be locked inside Fortune 500 companies. Dr. Golla brings that expertise to every client engagement.
