Security

Ensure your server is ready to face the challenges ahead...

Security is an important issue for any business, large or small. It is vital to ensure your server is ready to face the challenges ahead.

Typically, SMEs, are not targeted by a human hacker. You are much more likely to face the countless millions of infected servers running bots (automated software), which continuously search the internet looking for vulnerable machines to comprise, and in many cases turn the victim server into a bot itself. Such bots try the most common exploits for widely used software, sometimes testing out hundreds of different types of exploit before moving on.

If you think your server is open to abuse or has been abused in the past we can provide a ground up security audit, highlighting areas of concern and possible resolutions.

If you suspect your server has been compromised, we can investigate this and try to track down the persons responsible and identify the exploits they used.
