GNU/Linux Support
Linux that is set up properly and stays that way
Linux runs a lot of quiet, important work: web servers, file and backup servers, firewalls and internal tools. It is reliable when it is maintained, and a problem when nobody has touched it in three years. We build, secure and support Linux systems for small and mid-size organizations.
What we handle
- Server setup. Installing and configuring [Ubuntu, Debian, Rocky and other common distributions] for the job it needs to do.
- Hardening. Limiting access, removing what is not needed, configuring firewalls and keeping SSH and administrator accounts tight.
- Updates and maintenance. Scheduled patching and upgrades, with a plan for the older systems that are due.
- Services. Web servers, databases, file sharing, backup targets and the applications that depend on them.
- Monitoring and backups. Alerts for disk, memory and failed services, and backups that are tested.
- Linux desktops. Setup and support for staff who work on Linux.
Documented, not mysterious
Every system we touch is documented: what it does, what is installed, how it is configured and how to rebuild it. A Linux server should not be a black box that only one person understands.
How we work
- Review. We look at what you have and give you a plain-language list of risks and quick wins.
- Fix. We take care of the gaps in priority order, with the plan agreed first.
- Maintain. Ongoing patching, monitoring and support.
