Our team of experts will work with you to create a custom maintenance plan that fits your specific needs and budget. Depending on the level of service you choose, we can provide 24/7/365 coverage or scheduled maintenance windows that fit your schedule.

What is OS Security Hardening?

Hardening is the process of securing a system by lowering its surface of attack. In other words, it involves minimising the number of ways that an attacker can exploit a system in order to gain access to sensitive data or disrupt service.

Why is OS Hardening Necessary?

In today’s increasingly interconnected world, it’s more important than ever to make sure that your systems are as secure as possible. With so many potential threats out there, you can’t afford to take any chances when it comes to protecting your data. That’s where hardening comes in. By taking steps to reduce the number of ways that an attacker can access your systems, you can sleep soundly knowing that your data is safe and secure.

How Does Consult Circle Help?

At Consult Circle, we understand the importance of hardening your systems. That’s why we offer comprehensive hardening services for both Microsoft Windows and Linux systems.

Keeping your servers up to date with the latest patches is crucial to keeping your business running smoothly. But OS patch management can be a time-consuming and complex process, especially if you’re managing a large number of servers. That’s where a patch management service comes in. A patch management service can take care of the entire process for you, freeing up your time to focus on other tasks.

OS Patch Management Service

Here are 3 key reasons for using an OS patch management service from Consult Circle.

Reason #1: Minimise Downtime

One of the biggest benefits of using an OS patch management service is that it can help you minimise downtime. Applying patches can often require restarting servers, which can mean downtime for your business. By using a patch management service, you can schedule these restarts for times when they will have minimal impact on your business operations.

Reason #2: Reduce Complexity

Another benefit of using a patch management service is that it can help reduce the complexity of the patch management process. Patching can be a complex task, especially if you’re managing multiple servers. A patch management service can automate many of the tasks involved in applying patches, making the process simpler and less error-prone.

Reason #3: Save Time

A patch management service can also save you time. Applying patches manually can be a time-consuming process, particularly if you’re managing a large number of servers. By using a OS patch management service, you can free up your time to focus on other tasks. Patching in group of similar servers reduces time greatly whilst keeping  the service online. This can greatly reduce the amount of time you spend on patch management each quarter.

As you can see, there are many benefits to using a patch management service for your Windows and Linux servers. OS Patch management services can save you time, reduce complexity, and minimise downtime. If you’re looking for a way to streamline the process of keeping your servers up to date, a patch management service is worth considering.

In today’s connected world, cybersecurity is more important than ever. Businesses of all sizes need to be proactive in protecting their networks and data from security threats. That’s where threat and vulnerability management (TVM) services come in. TVM services help businesses identify, assess, and prioritize the threats facing their networks. By doing so, businesses can make informed decisions about how to best allocate their resources to mitigate those threats.

Benefits of Threat and Vulnerability Management

  • Improved security posture: TVM services help businesses identify weaknesses in their network security and take steps to address them. This improved security posture helps businesses ward off attacks and reduce the impact of breaches if they do occur.
  • Cost savings: By identifying and prioritizing security threats, TVM services can help businesses save money on cybersecurity costs. Businesses can avoid spending money on unnecessary security measures or on measures that are ineffective against the threats they face.
  • Peace of mind: Knowing that your business’ cybersecurity risks are being managed by a team of professionals can provide peace of mind for you and your employees. This peace of mind is especially important in today’s climate of constantly evolving cyber threats.

 

If you’re looking for a way to improve your business’ cybersecurity posture, save money on cybersecurity costs, and provide peace of mind for yourself and your employees, consider investing in Threat and Vulnerability Management (TVM) services. TVM services can help businesses of all sizes identify and assess the threats facing their networks.

Monitoring as a Service (MaaS) is a remote monitoring solution that allows you to remotely monitor servers, networks, applications and websites from a single, centralised platform. With MaaS, you can quickly and easily detect issues and resolve them proactively before they cause downtime or performance problems.

If you’re responsible for keeping your company’s systems up and running, you know how important it is to have a reliable monitoring solution in place. With so many moving parts, it can be difficult to keep tabs on everything yourself. That’s where MaaS comes in as you can offload that responsibility to a 3rd party such as us. MaaS is available on-demand, so you only pay for what you use. There’s no need to invest in expensive hardware or software upfront.

How does Monitoring as a Service work?

Monitoring as a Service uses a combination of agents and sensors to collect data from your systems and devices 24/7. This data is then transmitted to Consult Circle’s MaaS cloud platform where it is analysed in real-time by our team of experts.

If we detect an issue, we will immediately notify you so that you can take action to resolve it. Alternatively, if you have our managed IT Support contract, we can intervene and resolve this for.
