Server Security Analysis

Server security analysis for Windows and Linux: we find the vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and exposed services that put your servers at risk, and deliver a risk-rated report with clear fixes. We can harden everything for you too.

What our server security analysis covers

We examine every layer of your server, from the OS to the firewall, and hand you a prioritised plan, or harden it for you. A selection of what we cover:

OS hardening review

OS configuration, patch levels, and security settings on Windows and Linux.

Network & firewall audit

Firewall rules, open ports, network segmentation, and access controls.

Access & authentication

User accounts, privilege-escalation risks, and SSH/RDP configuration.

Services & attack surface

Running services, unnecessary software, and exposed attack surfaces.

Malware & rootkit scanning

Detection of known threats, suspicious files, and hidden processes.

Hardening & monitoring

We apply the fixes, tune the firewall, and set up logging and intrusion detection, with a 30-day verification scan.

Our Process

1

Infrastructure Mapping

We inventory your server environment, including OS, services, open ports, network topology, and access paths.

2

Configuration Audit

We deeply review OS hardening, firewall rules, service configurations, and security policies against industry benchmarks.

3

Access & Permission Review

We analyse user accounts, privileges, SSH/RDP configurations, and authentication mechanisms.

4

Threat Assessment & Report

We severity-rate the findings and deliver them with a prioritised remediation roadmap.

5

Hardening & verification

If you choose the full tier, we apply the fixes, tune the firewall, set up monitoring, and run a verification scan 30 days later.

F.A.Q About Server Security

What is a server security analysis?
It is a thorough examination of your Windows or Linux server: operating system hardening, firewall and network configuration, accounts and access, running services, logging, and malware. You get a risk-rated report of every issue and how to fix it.
Do you cover both Windows and Linux servers?
Yes. We assess and harden both Windows Server and Linux distributions such as Ubuntu, Debian, and CentOS/Rocky, using the right benchmarks and tooling for each platform.
Do you just report problems, or can you fix them?
Both options exist. The assessment tier delivers the report; the full tier means we apply the hardening, tune the firewall, improve access controls, set up monitoring, and run a verification scan afterwards.
Will the analysis disrupt our live servers?
The assessment is non-intrusive and safe to run on production. For hardening, we agree a change window and approach with you first, and make changes carefully so services stay available.
Is this a penetration test?
It is a configuration and hardening analysis rather than an external penetration test. We look at the server from the inside, its settings, exposure, and weaknesses, and fix what makes it attackable. We can advise if a separate pen test is also worthwhile.
What do you need from us to start?
The operating systems, the number of servers, what they host, and any current security measures are enough to scope it. For the work itself we will arrange secure access with you.
How do you handle our access and data securely?
We work over secure, least-privilege access, handle credentials carefully, and can sign an NDA before any details are shared. Findings are delivered privately to you, never disclosed elsewhere.
How long does it take?
It depends on the number and complexity of your servers. After an initial scoping conversation we give you a clear timeline, with hardening scheduled separately around your change windows.
What happens after you harden the server?
The full tier includes a verification scan 30 days after implementation to confirm the changes held and nothing regressed. Beyond that, we offer ongoing monitoring and periodic reviews on request.
Can you set up monitoring and intrusion detection?
Yes. As part of the full tier we configure logging, alerting, and basic intrusion detection so suspicious activity is caught early rather than discovered after the fact.
Will we get something we can show auditors or clients?
Yes. The report documents what was checked, the risk ratings, and the remediation, which is useful evidence for due diligence, insurers, and your own customers.
How does the quote process work?
Tell us about your servers and pick the option that fits. We review it and send you a tailored, fixed-scope quote, usually within one business day. It is free and there is no obligation.
