About us

Behind amanIT GmbH is a small team: two specialists in databases, infrastructure and security – with more than a decade of hands-on experience and ongoing training – and a managing director for marketing and communications.

Ahmad Gilbeau-Hammoud

Managing director of amanIT GmbH

I'm a solution architect at AAC Infotray AG and also run amanIT GmbH. For more than ten years my day-to-day has revolved around databases, infrastructure and security – from MSSQL optimisation and Active Directory to building secure cloud environments. It all started in security research: two peer-reviewed publications on access control (ACM SACMAT 2014, ICISS 2015 – see below).

In me you have a single, reliable point of contact – and with amanIT a well-coordinated network of partners and specialists behind you that tackles larger projects together. Security is not a side topic for us but a craft: we understand not only how systems run, but also how they're attacked – and how to protect them.

Managing director of amanIT GmbH

I'm amanIT's Microsoft SQL Server specialist – with years of hands-on practice in installation and configuration following Microsoft best practices, migrations, performance analysis, and backup, restore and maintenance concepts. I look after SQL Server environments for SMEs.

Knowledge transfer matters to me: through coaching, I enable teams to assess the state of their SQL Server environment themselves and to spot problems before they affect operations.

I make sure good solutions are also understood. I bring ten years of experience in marketing and social media and bridge business and IT: a bachelor's degree in Business Administration with a specialisation in Banking and Finance and a master's degree in Business Information Technology, both from ZHAW.

At amanIT I lead marketing and communications – translating technology into value that management can follow.

Approach & Network

You have a dedicated, personal point of contact – and behind the scenes a well-coordinated network of partners and specialists that pitches in depending on the project.

Personal point of contact

You talk directly to the person who knows your systems – no hotline, no ticket queue, but reliable, personal contact.

Network of partners

For larger projects we work with established partners such as AGIBA IT Services AG – allowing us to scale expertise and capacity as needed.

Always up to date

A dedicated, isolated security lab and the CAS Offensive and Defensive Cybersecurity programmes at OST keep our knowledge current – hands-on, not just in theory.

Publications

Academic papers on access control and security, peer-reviewed and published internationally.
