How to Adopt AI Safely (Without Leaking Data)
Bytagig CEO John Jackson shares practical wins in cybersecurity, cloud migration, and safe AI adoption for growing small and mid-sized businesses.

Who They Are
John Jackson is the CEO of Bytagig, a modern MSP built around one principle: technology should serve people and the business, not the other way around. Based near Portland, Bytagig supports growing organizations with managed IT, cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, data analytics, and practical AI adoption.
What They Do
Bytagig operates as an outsourced IT department or a co-managed partner alongside internal teams. They harden email and identity, cut risk with layered cybersecurity, and move clients from fragile on-prem servers to reliable cloud and serverless setups (think Microsoft Entra ID, SharePoint/OneDrive, etc.). In 2024–2025, they’re helping clients leverage AI safely by putting policy and guardrails in place before tools go live.
Common wins:
Reduce ransomware and business email compromise risk
Improve remote/hybrid work with cloud-first infrastructure
Create usable security (no productivity-killing lockouts)
Build AI usage policies that protect IP and customer data
Why You Should Connect
For services: If you’re 10–200 employees (more or less works too) and need fully managed IT, a co-managed boost, or a cybersecurity/AI advisory partner, Bytagig keeps your tech secure, usable, and aligned to the business.
For networking: ideal partners include commercial insurance brokers, ISPs, web/marketing agencies, print service providers, and commercial real estate professionals, anyone helping clients modernize and de-risk their operations.
