Welcome to our website.
I'm assuming that by arriving here, you are trying
to obtain a better understanding of just what A&N Associates
is all about. Let me try to address your interests by reviewing
a little bit of our history. Teresa Acevedo-Girod and I, both experienced
information assurance (IA) professionals, co-founded A&N in
January 1995. We were motivated by our vision of a business environment
that offers clients high quality IA consulting services, while providing
its employees (the 2 of us at that time) with a work environment
that respects them and their individual needs.
Since then A&N has grown, and our corporate
vision has been refined to accommodate the personal visions of our
many staff members, including Teresa who has transitioned into a
senior advisory role within A&N. However, our basic tenet of
becoming a "world class" consultancy while maintaining
a balanced work environment for our employees has remained steadfast.
We believe that both our clients and our staff benefit from this
approach.
We attract recognized IA professionals because
we are owned, operated and staffed by IA professionals and are not
driven by short-term corporate objectives. Our staff consists of
many accomplished professionals who are respected as individual
contributors while simultaneously being integrated into a company-wide
team dedicated to focusing A&N's best capabilities on each client
assignment.
Our clients benefit because we can efficiently
apply this formidable capability to work on their most complex IA
challenges. Since our culture is strongly focused on teamwork, we
naturally partner with our clients to help them resolve their most
serious issues. As a result, we are able to exceed expectations
by developing a profound understanding of our clients' issues and
providing tailored solutions that are sensitive to the unique needs
of each client.
Perhaps the best insight I can provide is for
you to think about A&N as a consultancy that offers the diversity
and technology base typically available at large and sophisticated
corporations in a manner that provides the personal attention, flexibility,
and creativity associated with a small company.
Thank you for visiting our website. If you have
any questions or comments please feel free to contact me directly

Sincerely,
John L. Nicolettos
President
