Security

Viruses, spam, hackers…

IT security is now something every company needs to be aware of.

It’s a scary fact that – according to security organisation the SANS Institute – an unpatched Windows XP machine attached to the internet will most likely be hacked in well under an hour, with the average time having been as low as twenty minutes.

What can be done to minimise your exposure to the security threats posed by the internet and networked computers?

Antivirus Solutions:

We have experience with a number of AV products including Sophos and Symantec. We can install and manage network wide solutions based on your requirements.

Anti-spam Solutions:

Spam can grow from a minor annoyance to a major issue for your company’s productivity. We can put in place measures to combat spam before it gets to your inbox.

Firewalls:

A firewall is an absolute essential for your network. Our perimeter security experts will be able to specify what’s best for your business and conduct full configuration and installation.

Intrusion Testing:

We cover both internal and external network scans and audits to flag up security vulnerabilities. If you require a full penetration testing service we can help with recommendations.

Computer and Server Updating:

Computer updating is a vital component of keeping your network secure. We can install and manage solutions to monitor and install updates across your network.

Network Data Security:

As your company grows, what starts out as simple shared folders can end up as an unstructured and unsecured mass of data. We can audit your shared data and put in place structure and permissions that suit your company both now and for the future. We can also put in place Group Policies that limit what your users can access and do across your network.
