Server config in version control

Using popular open source infrastructure management software such as Puppet, Ansible and Terraform, we keep all configuration safely in version control, so all change has an audit trail and peer review. We maximise our use of automation, to avoid human error, while ensuring there's enough human touch to ensure things are running smoothly.

Server hardening

We conduct full routine Linux server patching. Strict physical (AWS Security Groups) and virtual (Linux iptables) firewalling and secure, certificate-based VPN for passwordless authentication and verification add layers of security. We react rapidly to emergency security incidents, protecting your servers from threat. We disable or remove unnecessary services so you benefit from increased reliability and optimally performing servers, monitored constantly.

Multi-factor server authentication

Multi-factor server authentication for sensitive systems comes as standard. We use an open-source 2FA manager, LinOTP2, to support TOTP phone apps, such as Google Authenticator, or YubiKey devices, with options for other types of authentication too; all centrally managed via our custom directory services.

Flexible billing solutions

AWS services are charged on a consumption basis. We simplify the invoicing process by handling the billing for you, so you only have a single supplier. We can help you explore Reserved Instances and Saving Plans to pay upfront for server capacity and see huge reductions on your regular consumption charges. We can also guide you to access usage credits e.g. for R&D or charities. Benefit from budgeting, cost caps and transparent access to usage stats.

What our clients say

Moving us to AWS was brilliant because it’s reliable, scalable, and cost-effective. We saw some significant improvements. Before AWS, we had some stability issues, which were completely solved by the migration. Overall I'm really happy with the service we received from Code Enigma; it was a really great service with a dedicated group of competent people.
