European, no exceptions
European ownership, European jurisdiction and European partners. Including for the tools nobody sees, such as our own management platform.
About
A bulwark for your IT.
Bulwark is a Dutch managed service provider with one principle: IT management belongs in European hands. We do the everyday work of an MSP, without the dependencies that usually come with it.
The name
A view of every wall.
A bulwark is the part of a fortress that projects outwards. It lets the defender oversee every wall, with no blind spot. The Dutch refined fortress building over centuries, from Naarden to Bourtange.
That is how we look at IT management too: an overview of the whole, no blind spots in the chain, and a defence you keep in your own hands.
Principles
How we work.
Open where possible
Open standards and open-source software where it makes sense. Your data must always be able to move to another provider, even if that provider is not us.
Honest advice
Not everything has to go tomorrow. We tell you what is a real risk and what is not, even when that means less work for us.
Bulwark & Merlon
Two companies, one European chain.
Merlon is our sister company for sovereign cybersecurity, with specialists in detection, response, penetration testing and incident response. Bulwark manages, Merlon guards. Together we keep the whole chain in European hands, from the workplace to the security operations centre.

Let's count the keys.
A first conversation is an inventory: which vendors, tools and jurisdictions sit between you and your data? You get an honest picture, even if the conclusion is that you are in better shape than you thought.
