NodeOps Security OÜ is a remote-first B2B consultancy. We audit, harden and operate the Linux and Windows systems your business runs on - then help you put the policies in place that keep them that way.
Most providers stop at either strategy or implementation. We do both, which means the controls we recommend are ones we know how to run - and the systems we run are built to satisfy the controls.
A hands-on review of what an attacker would actually reach, ranked by the damage it would do.
Debian, Ubuntu, RHEL, Rocky and Alma estates built to be boring, repeatable and patched.
Active Directory and Windows Server estates cleaned up, baselined and kept current.
Finding the queries, indexes and settings that are quietly costing you money and uptime.
Pipelines, infrastructure as code and release process that your team can run without us.
An ongoing retainer for the infrastructure work nobody on your team has time to own.
A hardened server does not help much if nobody knows who owns it, what it holds, or what happens when it is gone for a day. Alongside the technical work we advise on risk management, corporate security policy and business continuity - the layer above the implementation.
No open-ended discovery, no surprise invoices, no access we cannot justify.
A short call, then a written scope: what we will look at, what we need access to, what you receive, and what it costs. Fixed fee wherever the work allows it.
Hands-on review with read-only access first. We verify findings before reporting them, so you are not chasing false positives from a scanner.
Findings ranked by real-world impact, each with a concrete fix. We implement them, or hand your team runbooks precise enough to follow.
Optional retainer: patching, monitoring, incident response and a monthly report that a non-technical director can read.
We were built as a distributed company from day one. There is no office overhead priced into our rates, no travel days on your invoice, and no waiting for someone to be in the building before a production issue gets looked at.
01 - PROJECT
A defined piece of work with a fixed scope and a fixed fee: a security audit, a migration, a database rescue, a continuity plan.
02 - RETAINER
A monthly block of hours for the infrastructure nobody internally has time to own, with agreed response times.
03 - ADVISORY
Scheduled sessions for leadership who need a technical second opinion before committing budget or signing a contract.
With a short call and a written scope. We agree what is in and out, what access we need and what you get at the end, before any work begins. Audits and projects are quoted as a fixed fee; ongoing work runs as a monthly retainer.
The least we can do the job with. Reviews start read-only. Anything that changes state is agreed in writing first. Access is tied to named accounts, time-boxed to the engagement and revoked when it ends - and we are happy to work inside your own jump host, VPN or PAM tooling rather than ours.
No - certification is issued by an accredited body, and it would be a conflict of interest for the people who built your controls to audit them for certification. What we do is get you ready: gap analysis, the control and policy work, and the evidence structure an auditor will ask for.
Not usually. A lot of our work sits alongside an existing provider or in-house team - an independent audit, a database that nobody has had time to tune, or continuity planning that keeps getting pushed back. We write findings to be actionable by whoever owns the system, and we are happy for that to be someone else.
We operate on Central European Time, which gives a full working-day overlap with the UK and the rest of the EU, and a solid afternoon overlap with the Eastern and Central United States and Canada. Maintenance windows are scheduled around your business hours, not ours.
Yes to both, and we would rather you asked. We can work from your paper or provide ours. As an EU-registered company we are used to GDPR obligations and can document the technical and organisational measures that go with them.
Tell us what you run and what keeps you up at night. You will get a written scope and a fixed price - and a reply within one business day.
