who we are

who we are

Judge us by this before you hire us.

We measure first, we quote second. Every engagement starts with an inventory of what you actually have, which is almost always more than anyone remembers. Nobody puts a price on the work before they know what is there.

If what you have works, we say so. If your backup restores and you can prove it, we are not going to sell you another one. We charge for taking ownership, not for replacing things that already do the job.

We test before we deploy. The virtualization, the backups and the monitoring are built on Proxmox, Linux and open source tooling that we run and deliberately break in our own lab before any of it reaches a client.

No vendor runs this place. The alternatives were tested on our own time and our own hardware, so what goes into your office is what fits your office, not whatever we happen to resell.

The hours are the hours. Automatic containment runs at any hour and the monitoring does not sleep. People answer from 8am to 8pm Eastern, with escalation for anything critical. We would rather say it that way than print 24/7 and let you assume somebody is sitting at a desk at 3am.

What we claim can be checked. CompTIA A+, Network+, Security+ and CySA+, the CSAP security analytics stack, Cisco CCNA and Programming for Network Engineers. All current, with issue and expiry dates, on a public profile you can open right now.
