Who We Are

RazorBass Technical Service Center was founded on a straightforward principle: the same caliber of technology expertise that protects Fortune 500 companies should be accessible to everyone.

Patrick Bass spent over two decades building, securing, and managing enterprise technology systems for organizations in insurance, healthcare, payments, and financial services. He has led security programs protecting millions of customers, advised boards and executives at more than 200 organizations, and now brings that same rigor and expertise to individuals, families, and small businesses in Fort Smith and beyond.

Whether you need your home computer running smoothly, your small business network secured against modern threats, or a professional website built from the ground up—RazorBass delivers enterprise-grade solutions at prices that make sense.

🏆 Recognition

ETA PayPal Tech Innovation Award

Recognized by the Electronic Transactions Association for developing innovative risk-management automation that enabled real-time KYC and merchant monitoring systems.

Patrick has designed and secured cloud platforms across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. He has led incident response teams during active breaches, built security operations centers from the ground up, and developed automation tools that helped organizations pass rigorous compliance audits including SOC 2, PCI DSS, HIPAA, and NYDFS.

But credentials only tell part of the story. Patrick is the kind of technologist who genuinely enjoys solving problems—whether that means removing stubborn malware from a family laptop, hardening a small business network against ransomware, restoring a vintage Commodore 64, or building a custom web application from scratch.

Our Approach

Technology should work for you, not against you.

We believe in clear communication, honest assessments, and practical solutions. We explain what we find in plain language, present your options without pressure, and help you make informed decisions about your technology. If something is not worth fixing, we will tell you that directly.

Every device and every project receives the same care and attention that Patrick brought to enterprise systems processing millions of transactions. Your home network matters just as much to us as a corporate data center.

Security is built into everything we do—not treated as an optional add-on. When we set up your computer, configure your network, or build your website, we apply the same security principles that protect major enterprises.
