Managed services that keep operations running and costs under control.
Running an estate is a different job from building one. We take the rota, patching, restore tests and cost work, or train your team to and step back.
Outcomes you can expect.
Managed cloud & SRE
We run your estate: monitoring, patching, backup verification and change, with named SRE capacity owning SLOs, incidents and toil, from 8×5 to 24×7.
Who it is for
- Teams whose on-call rota is three people quietly burning out.
- Organisations that built a platform and now need someone to run it, patch it and prove it recovers.
- Businesses that want to take operations back in time and need a team that trains theirs to do it.
What you get
- An SLA with monitoring, alerting, patching and change under it
- Patch and change records an auditor can follow
- Restore tests on a schedule, with the evidence
- On-call with named people, runbooks and incident reviews
- A toil log and a plan to hand operations back, if you want that
What we do
Take over operations
We agree the service scope and an SLA, then run monitoring, alerting, patching and change across public, private and hybrid platforms, from 8×5 to 24×7.
Patch on a schedule
Patch windows, staged rollouts, and rollback plans are agreed in advance and run through automation such as Ansible, with the evidence recorded.
Prove backups restore
Backups, including immutable copies in Veeam, AWS Backup or Azure Backup, are restored on a schedule into a safe environment and the result is kept as evidence.
Own the incidents
Named SREs run on-call with incident command, runbooks and blameless reviews, routed through PagerDuty or your tool, and keep the toil log.
Remove toil and hand back
Repeated work is automated and tracked against error budgets, and we train your team to take it back whenever you choose.
Security operations & vCISO
We watch your estate for attackers around the clock, with detection engineering, triage and response, and provide a fractional CISO for leadership, board reporting and audit sponsorship.
Who it is for
- Organisations that collect logs and have nobody watching them.
- Teams that cannot staff a security operations centre but still need detection and response.
- Boards and audit committees that need security leadership without a full-time executive.
What you get
- Logs from endpoints, identity, cloud and network in one place
- Detections as code, mapped to MITRE ATT&CK, tuned over time
- Triage and response with playbooks and clear escalation
- A risk register, policy set and board reporting
- A named executive sponsor for your audits
What we do
Collect and normalise logs
Endpoint, identity, cloud and network logs go into a SIEM such as Wazuh with consistent fields, so detection works across sources.
Engineer the detections
Detections are written as code, mapped to MITRE ATT&CK, tested, and tuned to cut false positives, so analysts see few alerts and the right ones.
Triage and respond
Analysts triage alerts, investigate, and respond using SOAR playbooks, with EDR containment where agreed, and hunt for threats between alerts.
Lead security as a fractional CISO
We keep the risk register, set policy, report to the board and run tabletop exercises, with the same plain language we use everywhere else.
Sponsor the audit
We act as the named security owner for ISO 27001 and SOC 2, and handle third-party risk and the incident response plan.
FinOps
We cut cloud spend and make it explainable: rightsizing, commitment planning, tagging and allocation, and unit economics, available on a share of verified savings.
Who it is for
- Teams whose cloud bill rises faster than the business and nobody can say why.
- Finance leads who need spend allocated to teams and products, not one large invoice.
- Organisations whose reserved capacity expired unnoticed.
What you get
- Spend allocated to teams and products
- A list of savings fixed, visible on the invoice
- Commitments sized and tracked, with expiry alerts
- Cost shown in the pipeline before a change ships
- Unit economics your finance team can use
What we do
Make spend visible
Tagging and allocation in AWS Cost Explorer, Azure Cost Management or Google Cloud Billing put every cost against a team or product, with showback or chargeback engineers trust.
Rightsize and switch off
Idle and oversized resources, non-production left running overnight and weekends, and storage on the wrong tier are found and fixed with scheduling and automation.
Plan commitments
AWS Savings Plans and Reserved Instances, Azure Reservations or Google Committed Use Discounts are sized to steady usage, tracked for expiry, and mixed with spot where work can be interrupted.
Catch it early
Cost anomaly detection and budget alerts, and Infracost in the pipeline, show the price of a change before it ships.
Measure unit economics
Cost per customer, per transaction or per feature, following the FinOps inform, optimise, operate cycle, so growth and spend can be compared.
Cloud cost assessment
A bounded look at where your cloud spend goes and what can be saved, ending in a written report and a ranked list of fixes with the reasons.
What is examined
- Where the spend goes, by account, team and product, and how much is untagged
- Idle, oversized and always-on resources, and storage on the wrong tier
- How much steady usage is covered by commitments, and when each one expires
- Whether anyone could explain the bill line by line to whoever signs it
How it works
- 01 Scope. We agree which accounts and environments are in, and who we need to talk to.
- 02 Discover. We pull billing and usage data with read-only access, and talk to the teams behind the spend.
- 03 Assess. We find the waste and the gaps in allocation and commitments, and rank them by the saving they offer.
- 04 Report. We write up each finding with the saving and the fix, in plain language.
- 05 Review. We walk through the report with your team, answer questions and agree what happens next.
What you receive
- A written report with the savings ranked and the reasons given
- Spend allocated to teams and products where the data allows
- A commitment plan with expiry dates marked
- A readout session with your team
- If you want help, we can make the fixes, or hand the list to your own team.
- If you do not, you keep a clear record of where the money goes and why.
Scope and timing are agreed on a call, before anything is committed.
