home/about

Senior operators. Real team.

netsec-ops exists because the work we love — building secure networks, hunting through logs, recovering compromised systems — is best done by small teams that stay close to the problem.

netsec-ops is led by Tony Perez and Daniel Cid — the co-founders of Sucuri (acquired by GoDaddy), OSSEC, CleanBrowsing, NOC.org, and Trunc — with a small team of engineers and analysts behind them.

Between Daniel and Tony, our founders have shipped open-source software running in tens of thousands of environments, built and operated anycast networks handling billions of requests a day, and written more incident-response reports than they care to count. We built netsec-ops because, after years inside larger companies, we wanted to go back to doing the actual work — with clients we can help, on engagements we can finish well.

What you can hire us for

Anything in our services list: network security, network management, anycast network design, website security, SIEM/SEM and log analysis, forensics and incident response, and compliance readiness. Engagement shapes range from one-off architecture reviews and incident response, to multi-month builds, to ongoing managed-services arrangements.
