Infrastructure Management & Protection
Infrastructure management that turns your application into a stable, secure and scalable product - you build the software, NeoBit sets up, secures and maintains the complete infrastructure beneath it 24/7.
If your team builds an application or runs a business system, the last thing you want is to waste time on servers that crash, security gaps, operating system upgrades and frantic night time interventions. NeoBit, a cyber security company from Mostar, takes over the entire infrastructure layer: architecture design, server provisioning, hardening to the highest standards, security, environments, backup and continuous monitoring. The result is simple - your team focuses on development and clients, while we guarantee that everything underneath runs reliably, fast and securely.
What infrastructure management and protection covers
Our Managed Infrastructure (Infrastructure as a Service) service covers the entire lifecycle of your infrastructure - from the initial design to day to day maintenance. We do not just sell you a server; we take responsibility for that server being properly architected, hardened, monitored and protected. Below is a detailed overview of each area.
System architecture
Everything starts with design. Poor architecture is a silent cost - it slows down the application, increases risk and makes growth harder. We design a scalable, secure and highly available architecture tailored specifically to your application: server and network layout, segmentation, databases, caching, message queues and redundancy points. Why this matters: a properly built architecture means your system handles traffic growth without rework, that a single failure does not bring down the entire service, and that every layer is isolated so a security incident stays contained. We document the design so you always know how your system works.
Deployment and automation
We take over server provisioning, installation and setup of your application, and we establish a CI/CD pipeline that automates the delivery of new versions. Why: manual deployment is slow and full of human error. With an automated approach (infrastructure as code, scripts, controlled releases) every release is repeatable, predictable and reversible. If something goes wrong, we roll back to the previous version in minutes, not hours. Your developers push code - the rest happens automatically.
Server setup and configuration to the highest standards
We set up and configure Linux and Windows servers according to recognized industry standards, primarily the CIS Benchmarks. This means disabling unnecessary services, secure default settings, privilege control, access restriction and complete configuration hygiene. Why: a server "out of the box" is vulnerable - open ports, weak passwords and default settings are the most common entry point for attackers. Hardening turns every server into a hard target, drastically reducing the attack surface before the application even goes live.
Operating system: installation, hardening and patching
We take care of the operating system throughout its entire lifecycle - clean installation, hardening, regular patching and updates. Why: a huge share of successful attacks exploit known vulnerabilities for which a patch already exists - the only problem being that it was not applied in time. We systematically track security advisories and apply patches through controlled maintenance windows, so your OS is always up to date without disrupting your service.
Security configuration
Security is our core business, so the infrastructure is protected in multiple layers (defense in depth):
- Firewall and FortiGate - control of network traffic at the perimeter and within the network (see also our firewall management service).
- WAF (Web Application Firewall) - protection of the application against attacks such as SQL injection, XSS and bots.
- Access control - least privilege principle, MFA, identity and access management.
- Encryption - of data in transit (TLS) and at rest (encryption at rest).
- Network segmentation - separating environments and services so that compromise of one part does not endanger the whole.
- VPN and access protection - secure, encrypted remote access for authorized users only.
Why: a single security tool is not enough. Layered protection means an attacker has to break through multiple independent barriers, each of which buys time and raises an alarm. For added security we connect the infrastructure to SOC monitoring and recommend a periodic penetration test.
Environments: development, staging and production
We set up separate environments - development for building, staging for testing that faithfully mirrors production, and production for real users. Why: testing on a live system is a recipe for disaster. Separated environments mean that a new version is thoroughly verified before it reaches users, that bugs are caught early, and that production stays stable and untouched during development.
Backup and disaster recovery
We implement backup according to the proven 3-2-1 rule: three copies of data, on two different media, with one copy off-site. In addition, we define a disaster recovery plan with clear RPO and RTO targets and regularly test data restoration. Why: a backup that has never been tested is not a backup, it is hope. We guarantee that the data can actually be restored and that your business survives a hardware failure, ransomware or human error - with minimal loss of data and time.
Monitoring and maintenance 24/7
We monitor the infrastructure continuously - availability (uptime), load, storage, performance, security events and anomalies. Proactive maintenance means we resolve problems before your users even notice them. Why: the most expensive outage is the one you learn about from an angry client. Our monitoring alerts us first, and the on-call team responds immediately - 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Scalability and high availability
We build infrastructure that grows with you: load balancing for even traffic distribution, redundancy of key components and high availability (HA) configurations with no single point of failure. Why: success must not bring down your system. When your number of users grows or a sudden traffic spike hits, the infrastructure adapts, and if one server fails, another takes over the work without service interruption.
How we work
Our process is clear, transparent and repeatable:
- 1. Assessment - we analyze your application, requirements, traffic and security needs.
- 2. Architecture - we design a scalable, secure and highly available solution and document it.
- 3. Setup - we provision servers, set up the application, CI/CD and environments.
- 4. Hardening - we harden the OS and servers to CIS standards and establish layered security.
- 5. Monitoring - we enable 24/7 monitoring, alerting and backup routines.
- 6. Maintenance - we continuously patch, optimize, scale and report.

On your own vs. with NeoBit
| Area | On your own / in-house | With NeoBit |
|---|---|---|
| Architecture design | Ad hoc, without documentation | Scalable, documented, HA architecture |
| Server security | Default settings, open holes | Hardening to CIS standards |
| Patching and updates | Whenever there is time | Regular, through planned windows |
| Monitoring | You find out when it goes down | 24/7 monitoring and proactive response |
| Backup and recovery | Untested, unreliable | 3-2-1 rule, tested DR plan |
| Staffing cost | Your own DevOps/sysadmin team | One partner, fixed cost |
| Team focus | Split across infrastructure | 100% on product development |
Who it is for
Infrastructure management is especially valuable if you are:
- A software development company - you have a great development team, but not one for servers.
- A startup - you need to launch quickly, securely and scalably, without hiring a DevOps engineer.
- A web or software agency - you want to deliver reliable infrastructure to your clients, not just code.
- A company without its own DevOps/sysadmin team - your business system is critical, but you have no one to assign to its maintenance.
Why NeoBit
We are not "just another hosting". NeoBit is a cyber security company, so we approach infrastructure security-first - security is not an afterthought, but the foundation of every decision.

Frequently asked questions
Can you take over the infrastructure of an application developed by our team?
Yes. That is exactly the core of our service - you develop and maintain the application, while we set up, secure and maintain the complete infrastructure beneath it 24/7: servers, operating system, security, environments, backup and monitoring.
Do you work with both Linux and Windows servers?
Yes. We set up and harden both Linux and Windows servers according to recognized industry standards such as the CIS Benchmarks, depending on what your application requires.
How do you ensure there is no data loss?
We apply the 3-2-1 backup rule (three copies, two media, one off-site) and build a tested disaster recovery plan with clear recovery targets, so that data can actually be restored after a failure, ransomware or human error.
Do we need to have our own system administrator or DevOps engineer?
No. The whole point of infrastructure management is that we take over the role of your sysadmin and DevOps team, so you can rely on us instead of hiring and retaining expensive specialists.
