This month marks a major milestone for Aspis Consulting as we proudly celebrate our 6th anniversary. Founded in 2019 by Jeff Wagner, a seasoned federal government professional with over two decades of experience, Aspis Consulting was born from a clear mission: to protect digital assets and support both government and commercial organizations with trusted, forward-thinking professional services.
Named after the Greek word for “shield,” Aspis Consulting stands for protection, strength, and resilience. In just six years, we’ve grown from a one-person startup to a diverse team of professionals operating across multiple states. What began as a cybersecurity-focused firm has expanded into a full-service consultancy, delivering cybersecurity, information technology, management consulting, and also administrative support to federal agencies, commercial enterprises, and nonprofits.
Aspis Consulting’s Journey
From our earliest days, we’ve focused on integrity, community, and diversity—values that continue to shape our work and our culture. Whether deploying cybersecurity experts, streamlining IT operations, or providing strategic business solutions, we remain committed to helping clients secure, optimize, and innovate in a constantly evolving digital landscape.
Aspis Consulting’s Recognition and Growth
Over the past six years, Aspis Consulting has also been recognized on local and national stages for our rapid growth and meaningful impact:
- 2025 Inc. Magazine Midwest Region: Named one of the fastest-growing privately-owned company
- 2025 Kansas City Business Journal: 9th largest LGBT-owned company
- 2024 Ingram’s Magazine: One of fastest-growing companies

- 2021 Forbes Next 1000 Honoree
- And also many more honors from the Kansas City Business Journal, U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and regional tech and diversity organizations
We’re proud to be not just a growing business—but also a values-driven business making a difference.
Looking Ahead for Aspis Consulting
As we celebrate this anniversary, we’re filled with gratitude—for our clients, who trust us with their most important challenges; for our team, who bring their expertise and passion to every engagement; and for our partners and community, who continue to support our journey.
Aspis Consulting’s future is bright. With an expanding footprint, a commitment to innovation, and also a deep-rooted mission to protect and empower, we’re excited for what lies ahead in the next six years—and beyond.
