For companies with in-house IT

Co-managed IT. We take load off your IT team.

Your IT team keeps operations running. Security, backup tests and projects rarely get the time they need. We take over exactly those parts, while responsibility and access stay with your team.

Duties split in writingAccess personal, with MFAMonthly report to your IT lead

Working together

How we split the work.

  1. Assessment

    Systems, responsibilities and the tools your team already uses.

  2. Agree the split

    Who does what and who is informed when. In writing, as a responsibility matrix.

  3. Set up access

    Personal accounts with MFA in your systems, revocable at any time.

  4. Operations and reporting

    Monthly report to the IT lead and regular check-ins.

Contracts, data protection and access

What procurement and data protection want to know upfront.

  • Service levels

    Response times are set in the contract. For around-the-clock cover we work with fixed cooperation partners.

  • Data processing

    Where we process personal data, we sign a data processing agreement under Art. 28 GDPR.

  • Data location

    On your premises or in data centres in the EU.

  • Access

    Every access uses a personal account with MFA and is logged.

  • Confidentiality

    We sign a non-disclosure agreement before we start.

  • End of the engagement

    Documentation, network plan and credentials belong to you and are handed over in full.

Who it is for

For companies with in-house IT.

✓ Good fit

  • You have an IT team or an IT lead
  • Security and backup tests fall behind in daily work
  • NIS2, ISO 27001 or customers ask for evidence
  • A project needs experience you lack in-house

✕ What it is not

  • Not a replacement for your IT team
  • Not a certification, we prepare you for audits

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is co-managed IT?

Co-managed IT means the in-house IT team and an external provider share operations. In-house IT keeps responsibility and oversight; the provider takes over defined areas such as monitoring, security or backup.

Do you replace our IT team?

No. We take on the agreed tasks. Decisions and access stay with your team.

How do we work together day to day?

Monitoring and analysis run on our platform. Alerts and reports go to the people you name, plus regular check-ins.

Are there guaranteed response times?

Yes, by agreement. For around-the-clock service levels we work with fixed cooperation partners.

What does it cost?

A fixed monthly price depending on the areas we take over and the number of systems. You get the quote after the assessment.
