Network Design

Before purchasing equipment or deciding on a hardware platform, it is important for us to understand how you use the network today and what are your future intentions. Our combined understanding of networking technologies and business requirements enables us to plan new networks and expand existing ones. Our goal is to ensure the design meets the business and technical requirements to support availability, reliability, security, scalability, and performance.

CSS installation services make it easy to add or replace equipment in your network. You gain faster deployment and the assurance that it will be done correctly with minimal disruption to business. In the end, a successful deployment can truly make the difference between an efficient, optimized network versus one that impacts productiivty and burdens mantenance costs.

Network Support Services

Our network support services are designed to meet your post-implementation maintenance needs. We will schedule periodic network maintenance checks to keep your computer network systems operating efficiently, securely, and reliably. Also, we can assist in extending the network coverage by installing new hardware and upgrading software to take advantage of new security features and access speeds.

Microsoft & Domino Business Network Servers

If you have Lotus Notes-Domino systems in your business enviornment, we can provide expert assistance with one of our staff consultants who has over 15 years development and implementation experience with these collaboration, data sharing systems.

Remote Access Solutions

A Virtual Private Network (VPN) connects remote sites or users together via a private network using a "virtual" connection that is securely routed though the Internet. Essentially, a VPN extends the office network to a remote site(s) or user(s) providing access to files, tools, and other network services as if they were physically working at the office. VPNs are a great way for a company to keep its employees and partners connected no matter where they are.

Network Security

Network Security Management is different for all kinds of situations. A small home or office may only require basic security while larger businesses require more advanced software and hardware to prevent attacks from hackers, viruses, spamming, and malicious software.

Here are just a few common network security mistakes:

• Ignoring security patches
• Not updating virus and spyware scanners
• Improper passwords or oversimplified passwords
• Lack of backups

Our security services range from initial audit to implementation and configuration of effective security measures to protect network access while simultaneously ensuring maximum uptime.
