Who We Help
Built for Middle Tennessee
If you've got WiFi, customer data, or a payment system — you have something worth protecting. You don't have to be a big company to be a target.
Shops & Salons
POS systems and shared staff logins are common attack entry points.
Farms & Agriculture
IoT sensors and ag software often ship with zero security defaults.
Food Trucks
Square and Stripe accounts without MFA are easy targets for account takeover.
Tradespeople
Estimate emails and QuickBooks logins rarely secured. One breach = lost clients.
Clinics & Healthcare
Patient data compliance and network isolation — done right, done local.
Real Estate
Client financials and transaction emails need more than a Gmail account.

Who's Behind This
Local. Certified.
Driven by Faith.
I'm Chance — a working IT technician at one of Tennessee's largest medical centers by day, and the founder of Dark Fire Security by conviction.
Faith and family are my foundation. I started this because I got tired of watching small businesses, farms, and everyday people get blindsided by breaches that were entirely preventable — then finding out the help they needed was priced out of reach.
I'm not a corporation. I'm local, accessible, and when I show up I speak plain English — not vendor pitch. Faith. Security. Life.
