Companies today have high speed connections to the Internet that are "always on" and directly connected to their networks. These connections are "big" doorways between the world at large and your internal information systems. Like any regular doorway, you want to make sure only authorized personnel can come and go. For the rest you would control access using locks, alarms, and other methods depending on how much security you feel you need. We will help you find the right security to fit your organization's needs. Some issues we will help you address are:
 
Firewalls and Intrusion Prevention

Firewalls are the lock-and-key, alarm system, and guard dog of your connection to the Internet. Utilizing an appropriate firewall can keep your systems safe and secure from "hackers" and other malicious intrusions. However using the wrong firewall can provide you with a false sense of security… making you “think” your systems are safe!
 
Think of it as having deadbolts on your doors and locks on your windows. Sure they may prevent a rookie burglar from getting in, but a professional will get right by them in seconds. Not having an effective firewall in place is just like this. Your My IT team will help you make viable decisions concerning Firewall Protection and securing your information systems.

Network Security

Unfortunately, more than 65% of company related data theft happens internally. Your team members are your most important and valuable asset, and your information and data is often a close second. Don't allow disgruntled employees or malicious internal attacks to cause a devaluation of your intellectual property or a breakdown in your productivity. My IT will help you establish internal protocols that secure your network properly, thus protecting your company's valuable assets.
