What are they? and why do you need them?
What we have found, is that businesses do not put much thought into Antivirus until they're faced with a virus. But even more to the point, unless there is an alert telling you there is a problem, we expect that everything is ok. Unfortunately, security and the constant flow of new software and technology bring a large number of vulnerabilities. Weaknesses in software, networking holes and a whole slew of other problems along with them. The weaknesses become attack vectors that hackers and companies use to infiltrate systems and abuse data security. Managed Antivirus allows us to actively monitor the antivirus solutions and make sure that not only are they working, but that they are up to date and scanning on a regular basis.
The internet is constantly changing and so is your businesses internet traffic patterns. Network Monitoring allows our team of specialists the tools to be able to watch the changes on your network to more promptly address changes, failures, and Security Vulnerabilities. It not only allows us to mitigate against online attacks quickly, but also against local attacks and weaknesses within your network.
When is the last time you ran a backup? When you ran those backups, was a test restore performed to verify the integrity of that data? Studies tell us that less than 15% of small business have backups in place that cover all of their data. We not only verify the backups are running, but we also test those backups and perform restores periodically to make sure if disaster strikes, you are covered.
so, You have antivirus installed so you are protected, right? This is not necessarily the case and is often misunderstood by the general public. Malware (Short for Malicious software) refers to software programs designed to damage or do other unwanted actions on a computer system. With the number of ransomware attacks on the rise, protecting yourself from Malware is more important than ever. Our management platform again offers protection by leading vendor BitDefender to protect your systems from attacks before they occur.
The internet is full of harmful sites and content that in some cases is designed purely to trick you into clicking links, downloading data and directing you towards misleading sites. Without an understanding of these security risks, attackers are finding it easy to fool users into giving up data that ultimately lead to security breaches and information leaks. Our web security package allows for safer surfing no matter what operating system or web browser.
Along with all the other vulnerabilities on the internet, there comes a need to keep different vendor software up to date and patched at all times. We are able to gather vendor change information on your behalf and push updates to your machines without the need for a technician to come out onsite, or for a user to manually check and maintain those packages. Our platform keeps a record of the current versioning and as new releases are presented by the manufacturer, we are able to streamline the installing of those patches/updates to keep your business moving forward.
