Integrated Security Compliance and Monitoring Tools

Nessus – Endpoint Protection

A comprehensive security tool used to detect and assess vulnerabilities in computer systems and networks, providing valuable insights for effective risk mitigation.

Wireguard – Encrypted Network Traffic

A modern and efficient open-source virtual private network protocol that offers secure and fast communication, prioritizing simplicity and performance.

Sophos Unified Threat Management (UTM)

A comprehensive security solution that combines multiple security features, such as firewall, antivirus, intrusion prevention, and web filtering, into a single platform for robust network protection.

MANUS/NUT2.0

Thanks to the efforts of an ongoing project, MANUS (Managed Ansible-based, Network UPS Service) offers a one of a kind protection against power outages. Built on top of a Github Project – “NUT” (Network UPS Tool), allows a “dumb” UPS to orchestrate the safe shutdown of services and servers during a power outage and even notifies users via SMS/email of remaining UPS power.

Just an example of the Tycloud DC network as it stood in early 2023. For security reasons, this has not been updated to the most recent configuration.

With several dozen virtual machines running concurrently serving at least a dozen users, Tycloud DC has time and time again proven excellent uptime, resiliency, and the ability to scale with end user need. Largely in part due to on-premises, redundant power for all data center hardware and routing equipment as well as a nearly seamless integration into AWS for failover routing. Clients are logically isolated from each other and continue to receive excellent service for all their computing needs.
