The Shadow Mode

Your digital camouflage shield when things get serious.

Have you found vulnerabilities with JOUO? Then take a deep breath - and go into Shadow Mode: before the vulnerability becomes a threat, we encapsulate your affected systems. Inconspicuously, without interrupting operations - and with maximum protection.

Shadow Mode is like a camouflage shield

An upstream reverse proxy protects you from prying eyes from outside. Attackers cannot see what is vulnerable. You gain valuable time for remediation - without risk, without panic.

When do you need shadow mode?

  • if you have discovered critical vulnerabilities

  • if your IT teams need time to make clean improvements

  • if you cannot risk someone from the outside recognizing the gaps

How it works:

  1. We place a reverse proxy in front of your systems.

  2. The proxy filters and disguises incoming requests.

  3. Vulnerable services remain invisible - until you are ready.

What is the difference to other reverse proxy providers?

If you use our Shadow Mode, you will benefit in the following ways, unlike our competitors:

  1. You can call us at any time.
     We are always available for you personally and can advise you or clarify questions.
     
  2. Your data remains within Europe.
    We work on German and Europe-wide servers so that your data does not "phone around the world and then back home" when you use shadow mode. This has the advantage that your data is always protected under European data protection laws.

Have you found vulnerabilites with JOUO? That's good! Now it's time to keep calm and take action. To prevent these loopholes from being exploited from the outside, we switch on shadow mode for you - quite simply with a reverse proxy.

The procedure

One

Diagnosis by JOUO

  • Our scan reveals where your systems are vulnerable.
  • You receive a report with clear measures.
Two

Switch on Shadow Mode

  • We'll set up the Shadow Mode for you.

  • An upstream reverse proxy then conceals your vulnerable systems from potential attackers.
  • Let attacks go nowhere - while you patch in the background.
Three

Fix in peace

  • Without panic and with our support, you remove the vulnerabilites.
  • No downtime, no PR disaster, no hectic rush.
  • Let attacks come to nothing - while you patch in the background.
Four

Back to normal operation

  • As soon as everything is clean, we deactivate shadow mode.
  • Your infrastructure is tougher, better and safer than before.

What does Shadow Mode cost?

The costs for implementing Shadow Mode are very individual, as it depends on the number of IP addresses and the severity of the vulnerabilities. Here is a guide to the minimum costs:

Installation costs

A one-off charge of at least €3,600 is due for setting up the reverse proxy.

Monthly costs

Once set up, monthly costs are incurred. The smallest package costs €150 per month for a maximum of 10 IP addresses. The monthly price is staggered for more IP addresses.

What does a reverse proxy do?

A reverse proxy sits like a bodyguard in front of your systems. It receives requests, filters them, encrypts them and only forwards what is not critical - or what you allow. Internal systems remain invisible and protected.
