IT Infrastructure

A file server that's backed up and locked down, not just plugged in.

Setting up a NAS or file server is easy. Setting it up so it isn't quietly exposing file shares to the internet, so a single failed drive doesn't mean losing everything, and so access is actually restricted to who needs it — that's the part a generic install usually skips. We don't, because it's the exact thing we test other companies' setups for.

What's included

A real backup strategy means more than one copy in the same building — and it means testing that a restore actually works, not just assuming the backup job succeeded.

Storage setup and configuration for your actual workload
User access permissions — restricted to who actually needs each share
A real backup strategy (multiple copies, at least one offsite/offline) so ransomware can't take everything at once
Hardened so admin panels and file shares aren't reachable from the internet
Documentation your team or IT provider can actually follow

Why it matters

Ransomware doesn't care that you had a backup — it cares whether it could reach it too.

A backup on the same network, reachable with the same credentials as everything else, isn't a real backup strategy — it's a second copy for the ransomware to encrypt. We set it up the way it needs to actually survive an incident.

Built by people who test for this gap

Exposed file shares and admin panels are exactly what we look for in a Network Security Assessment.

Real, tested backups

Not just a scheduled job — a strategy that's actually verified to restore.

Access scoped to who needs it

No shared admin logins, no more access than each user actually requires.
