Server Management

Server Management

This Server Management service is ideal for the small-medium businesses or companies who don’t have a full-time IT staff or an IT department.

If you need a custom solution, tell us what you need and we will work something for you that is tailored specifically for your business.

 

Remote Server Administration (starting $90/mth)

We offer complete (100% hands-free) server management – we will install, configure and manage your dedicated server or VPS for you. We will take care of the daily running and maintenance of your server while you focus on your core business.

The following features are included in this online server management package:

  • Software upgrades, patches and bug-fixes.
  • Server hardening and security setup (FREE – a $90 value – see our Server Hardening & Security Package below)
  • Server optimization and configuration (e.g. ensuring your website is fast and responsive)
  • Mail Server configuration (spf, dkim, smtp mail-relay, etc)
  • Secure Remote Backup (up to 50GB of remote storage).
  • Configure and setup a Web-based Control Panel (e.g. Virtualmin or cPanel)

The typical server types in this category would be your company’s Web-Server, E-Commerce server, WordPress Blog, Content Management System or any other Web-based Applications. We can also help you setup and configure these applications and the following server-control panels – Webmin/Virtualmin, cPanel/WHM and Plesk. We can also help you find a suitable hosting platform for you if you are looking to change host.

 

The Offline Package

This package covers on-site visits to your company/office. If you need or are looking at cost-effective File Server, Print Server or Backup server without paying costly license fees, we can help. Our solutions are based on Open-Source technologies and software – no vendor locked-in or expensive licenses. You only pay for the services you require.

Note: The “Offline Package” is applicable to the Klang Valley in Malaysia only. Contact us fo a custom quote.

 

Server Hardening & Security Package ($90 per server)

This is a one-off service to secure and hardened your Linux server. We will use only open-source tools and scripts, so there are no additional software cost or licenses. Tell us what your requirements and we’ll come back with a proposal to secure your server. This service will include the following base:

  • Operating System (Kernel) security patch/update
  • Application/System & Services updates
  • Removal / De-activation of un-used/in-secure services
  • Firewall (iptables) setup and configuration
  • SSH security & lockdown
  • Optional: Passwordless Login (Public/Private Key Authentication)
  • Automated IP ban for multiple failure

If you have specific requirements, e.g. specific ports that needs to be opened, or specific IPs that needs to be whitelisted, we can configure your server accordingly.

Once your server has been secured, we will run Nmap against it to test the setup. Once we’re happy with the security level, we will hand it over to your IT department and/or system administrator.

Please take note that your server needs to be constantly monitored (e.g. monitoring of the various log files for anomalies) by your IT staff/Sys-Admin.
