Managed security · Server & Infrastructure

Servers and cloud kept patched, monitored and with backups that actually work. Without an in-house sysadmin team.

We secure and manage your infrastructure: hardening, patching, 3-2-1 backups with defined RPO/RTO, log & monitoring and high availability. When something goes wrong, you know you can recover. We configure and manage: the cloud and machines stay yours.

  • Tested 3-2-1 backups with defined RPO/RTO: recovery is verified, not a guess.
  • Continuous hardening and patching of servers and cloud, to CIS Benchmarks.
  • Transparent monthly management fee. 'On request' for complex environments.

Who this is for

The 'missing middle': startups and SMBs running servers, applications or cloud but with no in-house sysadmin/security team to manage them. Sound familiar?

Backups nobody has ever tested

Backups exist, but nobody has verified whether recovery works. We implement 3-2-1 and test the restore.

Servers and cloud left unpatched

Machines with outdated patches, default configs, no monitoring. We secure them and keep them maintained.

Business continuity at risk

A single failure can stop the company. We design high availability and a realistic BCDR plan.

What 'managed server and infrastructure' means

Infrastructure, meaning physical or virtual servers, cloud and base applications, is where your data and services live. If it isn't patched, monitored and backed up with verified recovery, a failure or attack can turn into prolonged downtime or data loss.

We configure and manage this layer to best practices: system hardening, disciplined patching, backups following the 3-2-1 rule with tested recovery, log monitoring and high-availability design where needed. The cloud and machines stay in your name: we secure them and keep them running, we don't resell them.

What's included

  • Hardening of servers (Linux/Windows) and cloud environments to CIS Benchmarks.
  • Disciplined patch management: OS and component updates planned, applied and verified.
  • Backups following the 3-2-1 rule (3 copies, 2 media, 1 off-site) with encryption.
  • BCDR with defined RPO and RTO and, above all, recovery tested periodically, not a 'paper' backup.
  • Centralised log & monitoring: log collection, alerts on critical events, visibility into system health.
  • High availability and redundancy where the business requires it (failover, replicas).
  • Administrative access managed by least privilege, with traceability.
  • System documentation and recovery runbooks, kept up to date.

How it works

A staged method. People design and validate the architecture and recovery plans; tooling automates patching, backups and log collection.

  1. 1

    Assessment

    We inventory servers, cloud and applications; we assess patching, backups, monitoring and exposures.

  2. 2

    Hardening & setup

    We apply CIS baselines, configure 3-2-1 backups, monitoring and, where needed, redundancy.

  3. 3

    Recovery testing

    We verify the restore actually works against agreed RPO/RTO, not just that a backup exists.

  4. 4

    Management & monitoring

    We maintain patches and backups, monitor logs, manage changes and periodically review the BCDR plan.

Stack & standards

We work at the technology-category level, not locked to a single vendor: major cloud providers (IaaS/PaaS), virtualisation environments, backup solutions with off-site copy and log & monitoring platforms.

References: CIS Benchmarks for OS and cloud hardening, the 3-2-1 backup rule and the RPO/RTO concepts for continuity, and business continuity principles (aligned with ISO 22301 where relevant). We describe technologies by category: we pick the right tools for your infrastructure, without claiming partnerships we don't hold.

What we DON'T do: the boundaries

Honesty about boundaries. We're a security provider, not a hardware or cloud reseller.

We don't sell hardware

We don't sell servers, storage or appliances. The hardware and cloud subscriptions are yours to choose and buy, based on the design we give you.

We don't build your apps

We manage and secure infrastructure; application development stays with your team or vendors. We can support them on security requirements.

No 24/7 SOC promises

We do log & monitoring with alerts; for continuous detection and incident response there's a dedicated service, described honestly.

We configure, secure and manage the infrastructure. The cloud, subscriptions and hardware stay in your name: we tell you what's needed and why, but ownership stays with you.

Timeline & model

  1. 1

    Hardening & setup : project, typically 2-6 weeks

    Depends on the number of systems, their criticality and your starting point.

  2. 2

    Ongoing management : monthly management fee

    Patching, backups, recovery testing, monitoring and change management included.

  3. 3

    Complex or high-availability environments : on request

    Multi-region architectures, high-availability requirements or strict RPO/RTO: we size it together.

When you write to us we inventory your infrastructure and give you an honest 'from' price.

Frequently asked

What's the 3-2-1 backup rule?

Three copies of the data, on two different media types, with at least one off-site. It's the de-facto standard for surviving hardware failure, human error and ransomware. We implement it and encrypt it.

What do RPO and RTO mean?

RPO (Recovery Point Objective) is how much data you can afford to lose, measured in time; RTO (Recovery Time Objective) is how quickly you must be operational again. We define them with you and design backups to meet them.

Do you actually verify that backups restore?

Yes, and that's the point. A backup that's never been tested is a guess, not a guarantee. We run periodic recovery tests against the agreed RPO/RTO.

Do you manage cloud, on-premise servers or both?

Both. We work on cloud environments (IaaS/PaaS), virtual and physical servers, or hybrid setups. The approach, made of hardening, patching, backups and monitoring, is consistent.

Is this useful for ISO 27001 certification?

Backups, business continuity, logging and vulnerability management are concrete Annex A controls. Well-managed infrastructure provides audit-ready evidence.

Do you have to buy the servers and cloud?

No. Cloud subscriptions and hardware are yours to choose and own. We tell you what's needed based on the design, then configure, secure and manage it.
