The problem

Flat networks with a consumer router are the norm in small offices, which means one compromised laptop reaches everything.

What we built

  • pfSense firewall with explicit allow/deny policy, WAN/LAN separation and VLAN segmentation between zones
  • Remote access over OpenVPN and IPSec, with DHCP and DNS resolution managed centrally
  • Intrusion detection and prevention using Suricata and Snort, tuned against simulated attack scenarios
  • Traffic analysis and verification with Wireshark and Nmap, plus scripted firewall-rule updates
  • Step-by-step runbook and exported configuration so the build can be reproduced or handed over

We'll tell you honestly whether your case is a two-week build or a three-month one — and what it would cost — before you commit to anything.
