Servers and security
Server setup and information security
We set up and migrate servers, deploy company mail and secure VPN networks, run security audits and tighten access rights. We clean infected sites and bring them back to working order. We optimise and maintain your existing IT infrastructure without the cost of rebuilding it from scratch.
Server setup and migration
We build a server from scratch and move onto it what already works for you.
- Server installation and configuration: web server, database, domains, certificates with automatic renewal.
- Moving a site or application to different hosting, including choosing a provider that fits the load and the budget.
- Building the environment in Docker so that the application, the database and the cache stop getting in each other's way.
- Investigating slow performance: we find what exactly is holding things up and show measurements before and after.
Server hardening and security audit
We check layer by layer, close what we find and explain in plain language what was wrong.
- An audit of access, network and application with a report: what we found, what it threatens and in what order to fix it.
- Key-only login instead of passwords, closed control panels, a firewall and bans on brute force attempts.
- Recovering a site after an infection or a break-in, cleaning the code and closing the hole they came through.
- Backups with restore testing, because a backup nobody has restored is not a backup.
Mail, VPN and a private cloud
Your own services on your own server, with no monthly fee per employee.
- A mail server on your own domain with SPF, DKIM and DMARC configured so that letters land in the inbox.
- A company VPN for remote employee access to internal services.
- Nextcloud and other work services on your own hardware: files and documents stay with you.
- Access rights split up so that each employee has exactly what the job requires.
Server support and monitoring
Monthly maintenance for those who have nobody to hand the server to after launch.
- System and application updates, with a check that everything is still in place afterwards.
- Watching disk space, certificate expiry dates and site availability.
- Regular backups and incident analysis for when something does go down.
- Planned work in an agreed window, so the downtime falls at night rather than during the working day.
Process
How the work goes
The final cost is worked out individually. The price of an IT project depends on the technical requirements and the architecture of the system. We name the exact figure after analysing your task and fix it before work begins. The final cost does not change along the way.
We review the task
We look at what you have now and work out where all of it should end up.
We name the price and the timeline
After the review, not off a single message. The figure and the scope are fixed before work begins.
We do the work
Heavy operations go into an agreed window, so downtime does not land in the working day.
We hand over a report and the credentials
We write down what was done and how to maintain it. Our own access to your server is closed.
