Top SchoolEthan Ontong is an ICT professional with eight years’ experience designing, implementing and maintaining network and security infrastructure for businesses and homes across Cape Town. As Director of Kupha PTY LTD and a senior technician at Always On IT, he blends hands-on network installations (MikroTik, Ubiquiti, Cisco, HPE) with cyber security work including penetration testing, physical access control and CCTV/biometrics deployments. He’s skilled in server and workstation administration, VMware, Microsoft 365, backup and monitoring tools, and builds clear network topology and site diagrams to ensure 100% uptime commitments. A Linux-first practitioner with formal certificates in cyber security awareness and data compliance, he brings a pragmatic, client-focused approach that balances connectivity, resilience and threat reduction. Notably, he pairs field installation experience—fiber, copper and wireless—with hands-on security assessments, making him equally comfortable in server rooms and on ladders.
