ThreatWarden24/7 security operations for the age of AI-driven attacks

Attackers now use AI to find and weaponize vulnerabilities in days, not months. ThreatWarden puts RackNation's in-house SOC between your servers and that risk. We deploy and manage your security stack, harden and patch your systems, and respond to threats the moment they appear, day or night.

Why now

The window between disclosure and exploitation has collapsed

AI tools have made it faster and cheaper to discover flaws, write working exploits and scan the internet for vulnerable servers. A patch cycle that was acceptable two years ago now leaves you exposed for weeks.

The old modelSecurity handled in-house, between other priorities

  • Patches applied during the next maintenance window
  • Logs reviewed only when something already seems wrong
  • Antivirus that only knows yesterday's threats
  • Hardening done once at install, then forgotten
  • Nobody watching at 3 AM on a Sunday

With ThreatWardenA dedicated security operation working on your servers continuously

  • Actively exploited vulnerabilities fixed or mitigated within 48 hours
  • Every server's logs and integrity analyzed in real time
  • Behavioral XDR detection that catches unknown threats
  • AI-assisted hardening that adapts as new threats emerge
  • Analysts on shift 24/7 who contain threats, not just forward alerts

What's included

A complete security operation, managed for you

We install, configure and run every component. You don't need to buy separate licenses, staff a SOC or tune detection rules.

Wazuh SIEM & intrusion detectionEvery covered server runs a managed Wazuh agent for log analysis, host-based intrusion detection, rootkit detection and security configuration assessment, all fed into our central SOC platform.
Trend Micro XDR for WindowsWindows servers get Trend Micro's extended detection and response: behavioral analysis, ransomware protection and machine-learning detection that catches threats no signature has seen before.
Managed patchingOS and critical security updates are applied on an agreed schedule. When a vulnerability is being actively exploited, we patch it right away, outside the normal cycle.
Vulnerability & CVE monitoringWe keep a continuous inventory of installed software and match it against new CVEs and the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, so we know your exposure the day a flaw goes public.
File integrity monitoringChanges to system binaries, configuration files and web roots are detected and reviewed. These changes are often the first sign of a compromised application or a planted backdoor.
AI-assisted Linux hardeningOur agentic hardening process audits, tightens and re-hardens Linux servers continuously, and an engineer approves every change. See how it works
24/7 alert triageA RackNation analyst reviews every alert. We tune out false positives so real threats stand out, and you're only contacted about what matters.
Active threat containmentWhen a threat is confirmed, we act: isolate the host, stop malicious processes, block attacking IPs and lock compromised accounts. Then we notify you immediately.
Monthly security reportA clear summary of detected threats, actions taken, patch status, open vulnerabilities and recommendations, useful for management and auditors alike.

Agentic hardening · Linux servers

AI-assisted hardening that keeps up with new threats

Traditional hardening happens once, at install, and drifts from there. ThreatWarden uses AI agents, supervised by our engineers, to audit every Linux server against industry benchmarks, propose fixes tailored to what that server actually runs, and re-harden it whenever a new threat changes the picture.

  1. DiscoverAgents map the server: running services, open ports, installed packages, users, kernel settings and what the workload actually needs.
  2. AuditThe configuration is scored against CIS Benchmarks and security best practices. Every gap is identified and prioritized.
  3. PlanThe agent drafts a hardening plan for your specific workload, so it won't break the web server, database or application you depend on.
  4. Approve & applyA RackNation engineer reviews every change. Approved changes are applied in stages, with a configuration snapshot taken first so any step can be rolled back.
  5. Watch & adaptWazuh flags any drift from the hardened baseline. New CVEs trigger a fresh review, closing the gap until a vendor patch arrives.

What gets hardened

SSH and authentication policy, firewall rules, kernel and network parameters (sysctl), unnecessary services and packages, file permissions and ownership, user and sudo privileges, audit logging, mandatory access control (SELinux/AppArmor), and the configuration of common services such as web servers, databases and mail.

Mitigation before the patch exists

When a serious vulnerability is announced before a fix is available, agents identify which of your servers are affected and propose interim mitigations. These include disabling a vulnerable module, restricting access to an exposed service or applying a vendor workaround, so your exposure shrinks while the patch is still on its way.

CIS BenchmarksWorkload-aware changesEngineer-approvedSnapshot & rollbackContinuous drift detectionCVE-triggered re-hardening
Humans stay in controlAI agents handle the analysis and preparation at machine speed, but no change reaches your server without review by a RackNation engineer. You get the speed of automation with the judgment of an experienced team.

Incident response

What happens when something is detected

  1. DetectWazuh and Trend Micro XDR raise an alert, correlated with activity across your servers.
  2. TriageA SOC analyst investigates within minutes to confirm whether it's a real threat and how serious it is.
  3. ContainConfirmed threats are contained immediately through host isolation, process termination, IP blocking or account lockout.
  4. NotifyWe inform you by phone and ticket: what happened, what we did and what's at risk.
  5. RemediateWe close the entry point by patching, hardening or fixing the misconfiguration so it doesn't happen again.
  6. ReportA written incident summary follows, and the lessons learned feed back into your server's hardening baseline.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Which servers can be covered?

Linux and Windows servers hosted with RackNation, including HyperFlex Cloud Servers, Linux VPS, Dedicated Servers and colocated hardware. Contact us about servers hosted elsewhere.

Will the AI agents make changes to my servers on their own?

No. Agents audit, analyze and prepare hardening plans, but a RackNation engineer reviews and approves every change before it's applied. A configuration snapshot is taken first, so any change can be reversed.

Will hardening break my applications?

Plans are built around what each server actually runs, and changes are applied in stages. If a change affects a service, we roll it back. For sensitive workloads, we can agree to apply changes only in a maintenance window you approve.

Do I need to buy Wazuh or Trend Micro licenses separately?

No. Wazuh and the Trend Micro XDR license for Windows servers are included in the monthly price.

What does "contain" mean in practice?

When we confirm a threat, we take immediate steps to stop it spreading or causing damage: isolating the host from the network, terminating malicious processes, blocking attacker IPs or disabling compromised accounts. We notify you right away and agree on next steps together.

How is this different from VPS Server Management?

VPS Management keeps a Linux VPS updated, tuned and running. ThreatWarden adds a dedicated security layer on top: SIEM and XDR tooling, 24/7 SOC analysis, defined patch SLAs for exploited vulnerabilities, continuous AI-assisted hardening and active incident containment, on both Linux and Windows.

Is there a minimum term?

Service is billed monthly. Annual prepay is available with two months free.
