About Us

We started in 1992 as a staffing and training agency focused on the IBM AS/400 system (lately called iSeries and now IBM i), working mainly for international clients, and some local mid-size companies.

We are proud to share that one of the first systems we created, the 'Modulo' as it is called, has been operating at Avon Cosmetics since 1993.

In 1994, we added staffing and training for Synon/2E (now CA-2E) and external Security Officer service for AS/400 and iSeries.

In 1997, we attended "The Java Workshop" by Sun Microsystems and saw the future unfold before us. We bought "The Java Tutorial" and started learning. This was our first contact with open systems, which we liked very much. In 1998, we began selling Java training.

In 1998, we began selling Java training and TCP/IP training for the new IBM iSeries. Shortly after, we created Security Watch, one of the first firewalls for the IBM iSeries, and sold it shortly thereafter.

In 1999, we created the conceptual project "Telepuert@", and based on it, we created "Ubicat" (a product similar to Google Earth) and sold it shortly thereafter. We used Java for both the desktop and the web version.

In 2004, we started using Red Hat Linux and developing Java applications that ran on both Windows and Linux. Soon, we added training for multiplatform Java apps.

In 2013, we learnt about Bitcoin and began writing crypto Python apps for international crypto startups. We switched to using Ubuntu and Debian Linux. We also started teaching crypto and Bitcoin.

With the emergence of cryptocurrencies, cybercrime expanded at an unprecedented pace, significantly increasing the criticality of robust cybersecurity practices. The risk extended beyond direct theft of digital assets to the large-scale compromise and illicit trade of sensitive client data on darknet marketplaces. In response, in 2015 we began providing cybersecurity services to our clients, primarily operating in a Red Team capacity to identify and exploit vulnerabilities, while also delivering Blue Team support when required to strengthen defenses and improve incident response capabilities.

In 2017, we learnt about Ethereum and the Solidity Language. We wrote a book, "Introduction to Blockchain and Ethereum", which was published in 2018 by Packt Publishing of London. We began offering staffing and software development services for international crypto startups.

In 2018, we created the software infrastructure for a crypto bank. We sold it in 2025.

In 2020, we learnt about NFTs and began providing staffing services and apps.

In 2023, we learnt about Solana and started providing staffing services to crypto startups and scale-ups.

Since 2024, we provide Agentic AI services, helping clients tame unstructured data and wasted knowledge kept in documents.

Now, in 2025, we have enhanced our service portfolio and begun providing services for investors.
