My name is Tom Commander.
“The Lord is my light and my salvation.” (Psalm 27:1)
This verse accompanies me in my life and my work. It reminds me to treat people with honesty, reliability, and respect. That is why I am committed to treating everyone fairly, with care, openness, and integrity.
As a qualified Social Insurance Specialist (Sozialversicherungsfachwirt) and rehabilitation advisor at Deutsche Rentenversicherung, I’m used to handling sensitive, regulated data as part of my daily working life – and I bring that same mindset to your IT.
With IT-Service-Commander, I help businesses, tradespeople, medical practices and self-employed professionals in the Rhein-Erft district make their IT reliable, secure and easy to understand – especially where sensitive data is involved.
My goal is simple: technology should make everyday work easier, not more complicated. With me, you’re not talking to an anonymous hotline, but directly to the person who knows your systems and takes responsibility for them.
My Services for Businesses
I help you build stable and secure IT structures – across six areas:
- IT Service – ongoing support, maintenance, servers and networks
- E-Invoicing – powerful e-invoicing software with XRechnung and ZUGFeRD
- IT Security – backup strategies, protection against cyber threats, security consulting
- Cloud Solutions – your own company cloud with full data sovereignty
- Communication – privacy-friendly messengers and video conferencing
- Web & Hosting – reliable hosting and professional email infrastructure
The focus isn’t on technology for its own sake, but on the question: which solution genuinely helps you in your day-to-day work? I only recommend what makes sense and fits your needs – plus my personal areas of expertise (see below).
Experience Built on Advice and Responsibility
Here’s what that means in practice: in my main profession, I work every day in a strictly regulated environment handling highly sensitive personal data. Data protection, confidentiality and the careful handling of documents that require protection aren’t a textbook topic for me – they’re part of my daily working life.
This is exactly what sets me apart from many IT service providers: I understand data protection and regulation not just technically, but from the inside. For medical practices, law firms, tax advisors, care services and any business handling sensitive data, that’s a real advantage – you’re talking to someone who knows your duties of care from first-hand experience.
The same mindset shapes my IT work: careful listening, clear communication and transparent processes, so you always know exactly where you stand. Because good IT support doesn’t start with technology – it starts with understanding the people behind it.
My Areas of Expertise: Secure VPN Connections, Encryption & Bitcoin
A particular focus of my work is protecting sensitive data. This includes secure VPN connections for protected access while on the road or working from home, as well as the targeted use of encryption for confidential documents.
Beyond that, I’ve been working intensively with Bitcoin and cryptography for years. For businesses that want to make use of it, I offer support with secure Bitcoin payments on request – with a focus on clear fundamentals and safe handling rather than short-term trends.
Author
Alongside my professional work, I write books – among other things on financial literacy and on our social security systems. The common thread is always the same: making complex topics understandable and helping people make good decisions. That’s exactly the skill I bring to IT – I explain technology in a way that lets you understand it and decide at your own pace.
My Values
Whether in IT, in consulting or as an author: my goal is to create solutions that genuinely work in everyday life. For me, that means honesty, responsibility, reliability, clear communication and sustainable solutions. These values aren’t empty phrases – they have a foundation.
My foundation is my faith in Jesus Christ. It shapes how I deal with people and how I work – with respect, care and integrity.
I look forward to getting in touch personally and finding the right solution for your needs together.
