Security has never been more important, with the dependency placed on IT for a multitude of vital procedures. Always-on broadband connections are a serious threat to today's computer systems; the Internet is plagued by hackers, viruses and spyware. A network breach could render your systems vulnerable to numerous types of attack. Affecting not only your business but also your good reputation, this may have taken years to build up and may take longer to repair. We offer various cost effective services for improving security.
Security incidents are a growing problem. The DTI's 2004 Information Security Breach Survey found that over 70% of organisations reported that they had suffered a security breach; up from under 50% just two years ago. The average cost of the most serious incident in each business was approximately £10,000 & in larger companies it was £120,000.
Even your certified users could unwittingly compromise your network security by using contaminated insecure devices to infect your systems. They might have been on a web site, received an email or used media that installed tracking software or a virus onto their laptop, which once connected to your office network could potentially lead to any number of disasters from theft of critical business information to complete system failure.
Wireless Networks have become very popular over the last few years, with new technology & standards arriving frequently. If your wireless LAN is not configured correctly it can compromise your entire network. Anyone with easily available software can scan for identified weaknesses in wi-fi networks and could possibly gain access if your equipment is not kept upto date. Our knowledge on this subject includes all current & agreed but yet to be released standards. Port Vulnerability Assessments to assure your security.
We'll come to your premises to install & configure firewall, anti virus, anti spyware & anti pop up blocker software, this will protect your computers from any sort of attack & misuse. The applications we use automatically update themselves to keep you protected to any new threats that may arise. We can also install software that can filter which sites you allow to be seen. These services are included as standard in our maintenance contract.
We can design and install your digital CCTV surveillance systems with remote control & monitoring over the internet from any location with a standard broadband connection.
