Network Security

Network security is the top priority for NetDefender. Security has come to the forefront of the information industry over the past decade because of the amount of sensitive data that is passed across networks. Adding Internet access to a network is an open invitation for both wanted and unwanted visitors to walk right into your business. Security breaches can occur in different ways.

The most common are:

• Internal threats
• Virus contamination
• Outside hacking threats

Internal threats are the most common among all the threats. Disgruntled employees can cause your data to be compromised, lost, or stolen. Inexperienced employees can cause accidental data loss or expose your data to external sources.

Viruses can cause data loss or render your computers inoperable. In addition, they can propagate by sending the infection to others on your e-mail list.

Any device attached to a network should be considered to be at risk of a possible security violation. Any device that has access to the Internet, be it through a modem, broadband or any other direct Internet access, is at risk. Computers connected to the Internet, without adequate protection, can expose your business to viruses and to hackers with malicious intent. This can include theft of data, loss of data or the use of your computer as a conduit to further criminal activity. One point to remember is, most successful intrusions involve masquerading invaders, who disguise themselves as someone in an internally trusted group.

NetDefender can assess the threat to your computer or network and configure a solution for you. NetDefender offers a wide variety of security services, to include IDS (Intrusion Detection Systems) services, security assessments (which includes a risk assessment, a review of policies and procedures, vulnerability scanning, penetration testing, etc), firewalls, virus protection software, and security schema. We also help you draft security policies and procedures.
