About GoBe IT
Network Infrastructure & Business Optimization Consultants. Based in Thailand.
GoBe IT is a US–Thailand Treaty of Amity consulting firm headquartered in Nai Yang Beach, Phuket. We assess, secure, and optimize the networks that Thai organizations depend on, pentest them, and build the infrastructure required to deploy AI optimally.
Our story
Built for the Thai business environment
GoBe IT was established to address a clear gap in the Thai market: practical, accessible networking and infrastructure consulting for small and medium-sized businesses that operate without the resources of a large enterprise IT department.
Founded by Peter Goebels under the US–Thailand Treaty of Amity, GoBe IT combines international credentials with a deep understanding of the Phuket and broader Thai business environment. Our work spans network and business analysis, access control, redundancy and optimization design, pentesting, physical security, AI enablement, and staff training.
Community initiative
We also operate GoBe Learning Center — a free cyber awareness training program for Thai nationals, designed to raise baseline awareness across the broader workforce.
The book
Peter Goebels is also the author of The Meaning of Life: And How AI Is Killing It. All editions →

The GoBe IT team brings together international credentials, operational experience, and a long-standing commitment to the Thai business community.

Wasana Suthanon
Customer Relations

Business Operations Manager

He is professionally proficient in English and Thai.
Harold (AI) Dix
AI Sales Consultant
Harold is GoBe IT’s AI sales consultant — not a person. We draw on his breadth of knowledge when evaluating sales decisions and shaping proposals; he informs those decisions, but he does not make them. The final word always rests with our people.
Harold also serves as our gatekeeper: he screens incoming inquiries and handles most of the spam, so our consultants’ time goes to real clients.
He is fluent in all languages.
Technical expertise
GoBe IT is a networking and business-infrastructure company. AI is a tool we use internally and enable for clients — a small part of the work, not the business.
Network & Infrastructure
A complete network and business analysis — access, data, connectivity, backups, bottlenecks, hardware, firmware, software compliance, and physical security — delivered as a unified solution for optimization and redundancy.
Pentesting
Controlled testing that identifies exploitable weaknesses and feeds the remediation directly into the solution — for new clients as part of the assessment, and for existing clients as the network changes.
AI Enablement
The infrastructure, policy, and training that allow an organization to deploy AI to its full capacity at the lowest cost — once the networking requirements are met.
Our engagement approach
GoBe IT works directly with leadership teams to translate complex technology risk into clear operational decisions. Our consulting process focuses on practical recommendations that organizations can realistically implement.
Assess
A complete analysis of the network and the business: access rights, data, connectivity, backups, bottlenecks, hardware, firmware, compliance, and physical security.
Secure
Least-privilege access enforced, vulnerabilities remediated, firmware and software brought current, and pentest findings closed.
Optimize
Redundancy and performance engineered into hardware and software, so the business continues to operate when a component fails.
Enable AI
The infrastructure, policy, and training that allow the organization to deploy AI to its full potential at the lowest cost.
