Maintenance & Upgrades

Unsupported software is one of the most common causes of a breach. I keep PHP, Laravel, Drupal and WordPress applications patched, upgraded and running smoothly, and I take on legacy systems other people won't touch.

How I help

  • Security patching and dependency updates
  • Major framework and PHP version upgrades
  • Moving legacy applications into Docker and CI
  • Monitoring, backups and restore testing
  • Year 2038 readiness reviews for long-lived systems

The Year 2038 problem

I'm the author of 2038 Digital Epochalypse (2025), a book on the Year 2038 problem, the successor to Y2K, and what it means for the systems the economy still runs on. I also work with the Legacy Systems Foundation, whose open EPOCH+ 2038 safe™ standard and toolkit help organisations audit and fix time-related failures before 19 January 2038.
