Top SchoolBenjamin Craton is a security-minded technology founder and principal consultant with 13 years of hands-on experience spanning Linux systems support, enterprise MMIS solutions, product and data leadership, and security/compliance for SaaS. He has driven ISO 27001/27701 and SOC 2 Type 2 readiness with zero non-conformities, led cross-functional AI compliance work for LLM adoption, and built enterprise data platforms from ground zero to production in a single quarter. Comfortable toggling between developer, scrum master, and product-owner roles, he combines systems programming curiosity (favorite stack: Zig/Nix) with pragmatic risk management and incident leadership. He founded Star City Security Consulting to bring practical, audit-ready data security to SMBs while still dabbling in electronics, 3D printing, and audio processing—skills that reflect a maker’s approach to problem solving.
