Six things we actually check
(not a 40-question questionnaire)

Every audit is hands-on. We log in, look at the real configuration, and write up what we found — not what a checklist told us to ask about.

Hosting & uptime

Where you're hosted, what it costs, whether it matches your actual traffic, and what would happen if your provider had an outage tomorrow.

Backups & recovery

Do backups exist, are they offsite, and — the part nobody checks — can you actually restore from them? We test a sample restore.

AWS / cloud spend

If you're on AWS, we run our IdleCloud scan: idle EBS volumes, stopped instances, orphaned Elastic IPs. Usually finds $50–$500/mo of waste.

Server security

Patch level, SSH exposure, firewall rules, TLS configuration, and whether anything is logging admin access.

Domains & email deliverability

SPF, DKIM, DMARC, expiring certificates, and whether your transactional email is landing in spam.

Bus-factor & access

Who has the keys? If your last IT person left tomorrow, what credentials, repos, or admin accounts would walk out the door with them?

You leave with a written report — not just a chat

Most "free audits" are a 45-minute call and a follow-up email asking when you'd like to sign a contract. That's not what we do.

After the audit, you get a plain-English PDF that lists every finding, ranks it by severity, and includes the exact fix — config snippet, CLI command, or vendor to call. You can hand it to your existing team and never talk to us again.

  • Prioritized findings — critical, recommended, nice-to-have
  • Exact remediation steps, copy-pasteable where possible
  • Estimated monthly savings on cloud waste, with the math shown
  • A one-page summary you can forward to a non-technical exec

The AWS cost-savings section uses our IdleCloud scanner under the hood. See AWS cost optimization for the full breakdown of what we look for.
