For over ten years, we have been supporting companies and public administrations in the design of open-source infrastructures, systems integration, and digital sovereignty projects. As an ISO 27001, 27017, 27018, and ISO 9001 certified company, we see free software not only as a technological choice but as a sustainable model capable of generating autonomy, skills, and shared long-term value.
The presentation will showcase real-world experiences of adopting open-source technologies in practical contexts, demonstrating how it is possible to reduce dependence on proprietary platforms while maintaining control over data, infrastructure, and processes.
We will present one of the most significant projects with our client Loacker, where we are working on the migration of the virtualization infrastructure from VMware to Proxmox VE, a platform we have been partners with and users of for about fifteen years. The infrastructure has been integrated with open-source tools that support the implementation of the security measures required by the NIS2 Directive, including FreeIPA for centralized authentication and multi-factor authentication, Wazuh for SIEM and XDR, and Zabbix for system and service monitoring.
The goal of the presentation is to share experiences, methodologies, and concrete results that demonstrate how digital sovereignty can be achieved through sustainable, secure, and already scalable open-source solutions. The session will also explore key topics for free software and open technologies, such as interoperability, security, and technological independence, highlighting approaches and practices that support their practical adoption.
At Continuity S.r.l., we develop open-source digital solutions that enable companies and organizations to manage infrastructure and data autonomously, securely, and transparently, reducing dependence on proprietary platforms and external vendors. Our approach is based on modular and interoperable technologies designed to ensure operational continuity, control, and long-term resilience.
The contribution we propose to SFSCON aims to share practical experiences, methodologies, and perspectives related to the adoption of free software as a strategic lever for building more open, ethical, and sustainable digital ecosystems.
