Infrastructure is judged the day it fails.

KANTBUS designs, secures and operates the information systems of Guinean companies and institutions — and prepares for the day everything has to be restarted.

Case studies

What we delivered, and what it changed.

Clients judge us on systems that keep running, not on promises. Here is representative work, presented without naming the organisations involved.

Public institution

Multi-site Active Directory remediation

Context
A directory built up in successive stages, with failing replication and DNS records still pointing to a decommissioned server.
Work done
Audit of the existing setup, mapping of sites and subnets, DNS zone rebuild, cleanup of metadata left by old controllers, coherent group policy and a tested system state backup.
Outcome
Replication restored, DNS zones cleaned up, password policy applied and system state backup in place.

Central government

In-house collaboration platform

Context
Working documents exchanged on USB sticks and consumer mail services, with no version or access control.
Work done
Server installation and hardening, deployment of the collaboration platform, TLS certificates, encrypted daily backups and training of internal key users.
Outcome
Data hosted on infrastructure the organisation controls, with per-department permissions and version history.

Telecom operator

Design study for a multi-site public Wi-Fi network

Context
A need to open public Wi-Fi access across several busy areas, with user authentication and bandwidth control.
Work done
Coverage study, access point sizing, captive portal and authentication design, full costing and a phased rollout plan.
Outcome
Technical dossier and costed architecture, directly usable in a tender, with centralised monitoring planned from the first phase.

Domains

Five layers, one point of contact.

We cover the full lifecycle of your systems: design, security, operations, recovery — and we build the applications the market does not cover.

Infrastructure

Design and modernise what everything else rests on.

  • Physical and virtual servers
  • Corporate LAN and Wi-Fi
  • NAS and storage arrays

Cybersecurity

Reduce the attack surface before it gets used.

  • Audits and penetration tests
  • Active Directory and endpoint hardening
  • EDR, MFA, segmentation

Video surveillance

See what happens, and be able to prove it.

  • Coverage study and camera placement
  • NVR and secure remote access
  • Access control and alarms

Managed services

Hand your IT to a team that answers.

  • Monitoring and remote support
  • Patch management
  • Helpdesk and on-site visits

Backup and DR

An untested backup is not a backup.

  • Veeam, NAS, replication
  • 3-2-1 strategy and offsite copy
  • Documented restore tests

Business applications

Tool up a process no off-the-shelf product covers.

  • Custom management applications
  • Replacing unmanageable spreadsheets
  • Integration with existing systems

Training

Pass on the knowledge so your team can hold the system.

  • Windows Server, Linux, VMware, Veeam
  • Internal IT teams and career switchers
  • Sessions in Conakry or online

KANTBUS IT Training Center

Training on real environments, not on slides.

Our courses use the same architectures we deploy for clients. Trainees install, break and repair. A KANTBUS certificate is issued at the end of each track.

The company

Who actually shows up.

KANTBUS Guinea is the local subsidiary of KANTBUS LLC (USA). The team is led by a systems engineer holding a master's degree in information systems, with more than ten years in infrastructure administration, databases and cybersecurity, including several years supporting government environments.

We work on real production systems, under budget and availability constraints we know from the inside. You know who comes, and who answers when things break.

Let's talk about your systems before they become a problem.

A first conversation with no commitment, on site in Conakry or remotely. We leave with an assessment, you leave with a costed action plan.
