About

A lean partnership,
trusted with the hard problems.

Arditi was founded in 2026 by career cybersecurity operators with one vision: empower national security and private organizations alike — on the cyber front, and wherever a competitive edge or real productivity gain is there to be taken. We’re builders at heart, and we keep a bench of the best people in their field, which lets us drastically cut the cost of building and deploying highly complex systems.

Founders

Builders at heart.

Arditi runs lean by choice — a small bench of people who are the best at what they do, covering the surface end to end. We resist scaling headcount ahead of the work that justifies it.

Colby Maxey
CEO & Co-founder

Identity and data-protection background with a track record on the sales side of cybersecurity consulting. Owns commercial relationships, capture, and business operations.

Jeff Weber
CTO & Co-founder

Technology and security consulting background with expertise across the SDLC, DevSecOps, and applied AI. Owns architecture, delivery, and technical partnerships.

Operating principles

How we choose to work.

These are decisions we've made ahead of the pressure to break them.

Operator direction

Human operators direct consequential action. Autonomy is a delivery detail, not a marketing position.

Discipline over spectacle

We measure ourselves by whether the work landed and held up — not by the demo we could have run.

Lean by choice

Small teams for hard problems. We resist headcount ahead of the work that justifies it.

Under-served over popular

The largest gaps are in verticals the well-funded competitors don't chase. We prefer those.

Business

Our path to a full consulting practice.

Small federal contracts today. Full-service gov consulting on the strength of past performance tomorrow. Commercial products alongside, in verticals current tooling underserves.
