Hi, I'm Hugo Salamanca
ISC2 Certified in Cybersecurity℠ · Houston, TX
I spent 8+ years securing enterprise infrastructure for airlines, energy companies, hospitals, and manufacturers across Houston. Now that same discipline goes to local homes and small businesses — at a price that makes sense.
Why I started HoustonSecureIT
Over 8 years I worked inside some of Houston's most demanding IT environments — a major airline, a pipeline company, a hospital network, logistics, a chemical plant. Every one had a security team, enterprise firewalls, and round-the-clock monitoring.
The homeowner down the street and the shop on the corner don't have any of that. Default router passwords. Kids on the same network as the work laptop. Guest Wi-Fi tied into everything.
HoustonSecureIT closes that gap. Firewalla makes enterprise-grade security reachable. I make sure it is set up right — and Autopilot handles the routine so overnight shifts don't stall the shop.
I'm Houston-based, ISC2 certified, and I only take clients I can actually help. If you're not a fit, I'll say so and point you the right way.
