Advanced Laser Solutions

Advanced Laser Solutions is a black-owned cell phone, tablet, and computer repair center, parts store, and retailer; and is, despite its ramshackle building and chaotic workspace, employs the most knowledgeable repair techs and sales people, the most reliable programmers, and - quite possibly - the hardest working men and women in outsourced IT.

In addition to sales and repair, Advanced Laser Solutions (Often shortened to "Laser" due to the negative connotations of "ALS") also serves as offsite IT for a number of local corporations. As such, they are the one tech company most likely to be open (or at least operating and willing to open) throughout the night and late into the early morning. Though they are not aware of it, Advanced Laser Solutions provides IT services for the majority of kindred in San Augustin, who refuse to abandon technology in the face of Camarilla edict and the dangers of the Modern Inquisition.

For this reason, Advanced Laser Solutions (again, without knowing it) has become one of the primary antagonists to Second Inquisition hackers and investigators. One of the reasons they stay open so late, is the "White-Hatting" they must do to defend their clientele. In their ignorance, Laser has come to believe the modern internet is nothing less than a digital warzone; and have thus become quite adept at intrusion countermeasures, digital security, and defense.
